That clearly went over your head pal.

And Lewis had barely turned pro by the time Tyson and been knocked out by Douglas.

When Tyson was dominating Lewis hadnt even turned pro mate.

Im of the opinion Lewis would of beaten Tyson even easier had Tyson been at his prime....the notoriety and reputation Tyson had built meant that Lewis showed him far more respect than he needed to,that fight could of been over in 3 rounds had Lewis put his foot down earlier.

When you weigh it up Tyson only fought 2 high level opponents in his career and over 3 fights barely took a round off them.

Genuine boxing lads must look at the state of boxing and despair now days.......I don’t know who the promoters are thinking this shite up but they are making a joke of boxing.

You got you tubers v other you tubers, you got lads who should be mowing the lawn fighting each other, you got MMA fighters v pro boxers.......bloody awful really 

For me its just indicative of the society we now live in you dont have to reach the top on merit anymore.....reality tv has merged into sport and if your face fits you're in.

Edited to add.....another good example is these 2 strongmen geezers they cant throw a punch between them yet are getting eyes on them.....its the naive showing out to the gullible.

Was watching a report, a few months ago, with eddie hearn rubbing his hands in glee and practically jizzing himself, whilst talking up that ridiculous you tube fight, jake paul? And almost besides himself with excitement, at 'the numbers/money' it was generating!  You're dead right, absolutely abbysmal state of affairs.

Lads if the youtubers means more views and more money comes into fight sports then it secures its future in the western world where people seem to have a better life these days and dont need to figgt to live. Maybe its whats needed for it to continue

Can't entertain the jake paul s**t,a friend of mine spoke to me yesterday and reckons mayweather is fighting him next? Unbelievable,but as the same fella put it to me he said me nephews know who jake paul is,they don't know who Canelo Alvarez or Tyson fury are,that pauls got god knows how many million followers and he's using his youtube pull to get his fave about 

Not interested in anything he does though personally,and as for all these old timers trying to roll back the years I have little time for that either,fights like cash vs Bentley what's just happened need more recognition,two young lads having a competitive fight early doors in their career,how it should be

Be brilliant if there was some one involved with boxing instead of just fans to titting and tatting
