- Boxing. Jake Paul - Mike Tyson fight is getting real after a tense interaction at the Cowboys' stadium
- Boxing. Jake Paul gets cautioned to avoid opponent as old boxing video emerges that could signal danger
The Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul is very real and getting closer by the day. We are now less than two months away from the highly anticipated fight taking place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, a state-of-the-art venue befitting a boxing legend and modern celebrity star.
Despite everything going forward as planned, there are still a lot of people who aren't totally convinced that the fight will go ahead. Tyson's health scare that initially postponed the fight was a warning sign, and he's turned 58 years old since then. His biggest fans don't want to see him get put into a dangerous position.
That includes Joe Rogan, who recently spoke about the fight on his podcast.
I really hope he doesn't knock Mike Tyson out. I'd just be real bummed out to see Mike get KO'd at 58-year-old... It's kinda crazy [that we're letting this happen].
Joe Rogan still thinks Mike Tyson can knock out Jake Paul
But despite the worst case scenario being a real possibility, Rogan is still holding out hope that Tyson can catch Paul with one big punch and leave his legacy intact.
He is perfectly capable [of knocking Paul out]. If he zigs when he should have zagged, Mike can close the distance in a way that he doesn't expect. And Mike also has layers upon layers of attacks that are in his mind. He's forgotten more about boxing than Jake Paul has ever ed... If he uncorks a boom-boom on Jake Paul, that would be wild.
It certainly would be, and it would be the perfect way for Tyson to finally call it quits on a legendary career.
