This is the moment.
The judges are ready.
Boxing world is ready.
How do the stones?
So aggressive, so focused.
It all comes down to this.
And the knockdown still.
The Zone, Weekend Preview.
But next week, we got something that's even bigger.
An event that is by far the biggest event.
I'm going to use that word specifically of this calendar year.
Mike Tyson up against Jake Paul.
Tyson, 58 years old.
Back in the ring for the first time in four years.
Back in a sanctioned boxing match for the first time in 19 years.
Barack, this is one of those fights that even if you mock it,
and I and others have, it could go any way possible.
You could give me any outcome and I could probably see an argument for it.
Right. And the people who are complaining about this don't want to fight Mike Tyson.
I know he's 58 years old, but he's still scary.
Look at his genetics compared to Jake.
He actually looks like he's in better shape.
We've seen his little pad work that he did for a little 6, 8 seconds.
Any one of those shots could probably hurt Jake.
But then again, Jake is young. He's powerful.
He dropped everybody he's fought.
We don't want nobody to hurt our idol, you know.
I'm going to go with what a lot of people are saying.
Mike, dangerous, early. Right.
Look, obviously, he's still Mike Tyson, and I think he still hits hard.
That's the last thing we lose, power, right.
And Mike is prideful. Even though he's nice.
It's actually the first thing Sergio lost.
Never had it. You got to get it first, though.
Even though Mike is nice to Jake outside the ring,
you know when he steps in that ring, he just sees red.
So he's going to try to hurt Jake.
Even though the gloves are supposedly a little bit bigger,
it's a real professional champion fight.
But I do agree that Mike will fade, and in the first three rounds,
Jake has the youth. He's been taking boxing serious.
He could possibly hurt Mike. Two-minute round.
That's the point, too, right?
Like, these are eight rounds, but they are two-minute rounds.
And Sergio, I would think that maybe helps Mike Tyson in this situation.
It does help him because he's only fighting two minutes.
But once it gets into the third and fourth round,
those two minutes are going to be very long for a 58-year-old fighter.
You need to remember, the last time Mike Tyson got into a ring
in a boxing fight was over 20 years ago.
And he still got knocked out.
What about the Roy Jones fight? He seemed to be in shape.
He didn't get tired.
He was in better shape than Roy Jones in that fight.
Exactly.
That fight actually impressed a lot of people.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
That one impressed a lot of people.
Roy Jones, you know, natural middleweight.
You know, so coming up in the ring.
Do you think the Oddmakers have it right with having Jake ahead as a fighter?
Absolutely.
I just don't see a 58-year-old version of Iron Mike Tyson from the heyday
doing anything to actually beat this guy.
I hate to say that.
Let me ask you guys this.
I know what Mike Tyson gets out of this, right?
Like, Mike Tyson loses his 58, doesn't do anything to his legacy
no matter what people say.
He gets a lot of marketing out of this, too.
Every time he has a press event,
I get three emails from people connected to him about something new going on
in Mike Tyson's orbit.
For Jake Paul, though, this is a lot riskier.
Like, he wins, and people are just going to say you beat a 58-year-old man.
He loses, and you just lost to a 58-year-old man.
It doesn't matter.
You lost to Mike Tyson, Iron Mike Tyson.
That's one way to look at it.
The opportunity at hand, Netflix, I don't know, half a billion subscribers,
the amount of people that are going to watch this fight,
it's probably going to be watched more than, I don't know,
than any fight in the last 50 years.
I mean, maybe Muhammad Ali, the fight of the century.
So a lot of people are going to watch this fight.
So honestly, outside of making the money, if he loses, he loses to Mike Tyson.
I mean, it's not a bad thing, and I think he wins.
Yeah, and he's not doing this for boxing legacy anyway.
So if he wins, yeah, you beat a 58-year-old man,
but maybe 100 million people saw it.
So it's bigging up your next fight.
So this is smart no matter what.
Yeah, it's definitely big.
A lot of people are going to be watching it on Netflix worldwide.
