AdvertisementPaul spent much of the fight dancing around Tyson with his arms arrogantly low, taunting the legendary knockout artist to come close. Hardly anyone, conversely, will be calling for a rematch of the main event between Paul and Tyson. The YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul was far quicker in his combinations, far twitchier in his reflexes and far more fluid in his combinations, using his three-inch height advantage to keep Tyson out of range. But despite the exhibition-like rule changes, the fight was certainly spirited, with Paul sticking his tongue out to mock Tyson at one point. At the weigh-ins Thursday, Tyson delivered a stiff slap to Paul after Paul appeared to step on one of his feet.

At 58 years old, Tyson will fight Jake Paul, the 27-year-old YouTube-star-turned-boxer who wasn’t even born when Tyson’s career was in its prime. It’s Tyson’s first sanctioned professional match since 2005. Lewis largely controlled the fight, as the champion survived Tyson’s round one onslaught and controlled the pace with strong jabs. The loss accelerated the end of Tyson’s professional career. His final professional bout — until Friday’s against Paul — came against McBride in 2005.

That was before Fury got knocked down and nearly defeated by Francis Ngannou, an MMA fighter making his boxing debut. “I want this to work out, I want this fight to happen,” the 36-year-old Usyk said from his training camp in Valencia. Earlier talks for a Fury-Usyk fight fell apart in March, with Warren blaming a disagreement over terms for a rematch.

Se pare că Anthony Joshua a apelat la doi foști campioni mondiali pentru a-l ajuta să se pregătească pentru întâlnirea cu compatriotul său. Anthony Joshua a enumerat și câțiva pugiliști pe care i-ar dori alături de el pentru a-l ajuta să pregătească lupta cu Tyson. Britanicul a pierdut în fața lui Andy Ruiz, însă, la cea de-a doua întâlnire dintre cei doi, Joshua a revenit și a recâștigat centurile. De cealaltă parte, Tyson Fury are un record impecabil, cu 30 de victorii, nicio înfrângere și o singură remiză.
