Wally Downes Jr., a boxing analyst for SunSport, summarizes one of the dullest and most memorable evenings in boxing history. Additionally, he is unreserved in his harsh criticism of social media sensation Jake Paul.
First RoundJust before the starting bell rings, Paul declares, “I love you, Mike.” He rushes off and gives the legendary boxer a hug. Tyson’s tremendous right hand and straight punch send the fans into a frenzy.Conclusion: 10–9. Tyson
The Second RoundAs we anticipated, Paul escaped in the opening and held his own. First Tommy Fury, then Mike Tyson. Tyson will be exhausted, so that’s a good idea. Paul delivers a straight right to Tyson. Tyson appears worn out. It appears that the combat is over after 180 seconds of fighting.
Conclusion: 10–9. TysonThe Third RoundNot even his mouthguard is worn by the legend. This is a waste of time, as one might assume. Until the 58-year-old is exhausted, Paul flees. Now we’re shooting ducks in a barrel. This is where Tyson may get wounded. Tyson staggers back as Paul makes a couple clumsy shots.After three rounds, it was tragic.
Conclusion: 10–9. Paul
The Fourth RoundThis is trash. The audience is jeering and bored. Just two large men are engaged in combat. One is a promoter, the other is a legend.Conclusion: Paul Round Five, 10-9Paul strikes the icon with a powerful blow to the body and then immediately targets the head. Tyson is having trouble holding onto the mouthpiece and is having trouble breathing. Tyson throws the identical left hook that Paul does.Paul, the verdict is 10-9.Sixth RoundI’m glad that these rounds aren’t three minutes long. Each round consists of roughly four punches. Tyson is gasping for air but replays show the left hook grazed Paul’s beard.Conclusion: Paul Round Seven, 10-9Tyson tries a hook after missing a punch. The pundit acknowledges that it was a “sad” sight. AT&T Stadium has been totally demolished. Paul appears just as worn out as Tyson. Conclusion 10-9 PaulRound EightGo back to YouTube, Jake. You’re a great cheater. But you’ve never been a boxer. The judges’ verdict: 80-72, 79-73, 79-73. I’m glad Tyson got paid and is safe.Paul, the verdict is 10-9.Final SunSport scorecard: 78-74 for Jake Paul
