Yes, Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson actually happened.
What seemed like a ridiculous idea years ago, today is a reality. Paul, a YouTube star turned professional boxer, fought and defeated a 58-year-old Tyson in a professional boxing fight on Friday night at the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium in Texas. The event, which streamed live on Netflix, was a huge draw, with over 60 million households tuning in, according to reports. Yet, despite the viewership, the event itself was a mixed bag, as it featured high-level boxing with not-so-high-level boxing.
So, despite the criticism surrounding the Paul vs. Tyson fight, can the event as a whole be considered a success?
MMA Junkie’s Brian “Goze” Garcia, Mike Bohn, Danny Segura and host Gorgeous George discuss everything surrounding Paul vs. Tyson fight and its success at the box office.
