☆ Jake Paul defeats Mike Tyson with ease in Netflix spectacle
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-16 | by ( Mark Puleo | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +4 min

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.

“A complete jump ball,” said Dennis Lennox, a Republican strategist who works in Michigan. “Nobody really knows what will happen.”Beyond the suburbs, Republicans see opportunities to peel off traditionally Democratic voters, like Black men. Now, many Lebanese American and Palestinian American voters in Michigan say they will not vote for Harris under any circumstance. And she signaled that she believes support for Harris from Republicans like Upton could be key to the race. “This is the center of the political universe, here in Michigan.”Alex Seitz-Wald reported from Camden, Maine; Henry Gomez reported from Detroit, Michigan.

Including Detroit, Trump this year has pointedly attacked the most populous cities in three battleground states crucial to winning the White House: Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Trump’s attacks risk offending swing voters who don’t share his dark view of their big cities, as well as Black voters his campaign is trying to sway in what’s expected to be a close election won on the margins. Thank you, sir, for saying it.’ They want help.”“These cities,” Trump added, “it’s like living in hell.”It’s not only large cities that Trump likes to vilify. A Republican close to Trump’s campaign argued that his attacks on cities aren’t insults but are, rather, a pledge to solve problems that most people who live in those regions recognize. Courting the Black voteMichigan was the site of Trump’s memorable 2016 call for Black voters to support his candidacy.

And it’s a playbook that former President Donald Trump’s campaign has tossed aside. It’s a gamble, Trump’s campaign internally acknowledges, but one that they insist is built on data they have collected over nearly a decade and tested for the past six months. Days later, the Michigan state party chairman also plugged 10xVotes when he rolled into Traverse City, Michigan, alongside Trump running mate JD Vance. But rather than courting those voters, Trump’s campaign is in search of new ones. Trump’s campaign has also tried to seize on discord within the Democratic coalition.

Deutsche Bank has some ideas on which stocks investors will want to hold if Kamala Harris comes out on top in November's presidential election. Following Tuesday night's debate , analyst Nicole DeBlase sent a note to clients looking at the themes and individual companies that stand to benefit from another four years of Democrats in the White House. Here's what she likes in this scenario: Residential construction suppliers, which can benefit from more housing support: Lennox International , Stanley Black & Decker , Carrier Global , Trane Technologies and Pentair Stocks tied to a "more cooperative and less protectionist world order": Stanley Black & Decker, Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Electric product and system makers, assuming an intact Inflation Reduction Act: Eaton , Hubbell , Vertiv HVAC stocks, for the same reason: Lennox International, Carrier Global, Trane Technologies, Johnson Controls International Regulation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl contaminants, known as PFAS: Xylem "From a high level, [a] Harris victory would likely bring more support for lower-income households (via housing subsidies/tax breaks) but higher corporate tax rates, less overt protectionism and legislation that limits/reverses climate change," DeBlase told clients. The election is almost universally expected to be close. One measure of economic "misery " appears to favor Harris, using data analysis from research firm Strategas — but only by a narrow margin.

Both rappers released diss tracks that took blistering personal shots on Friday night. "He doesn't have the heart for the lying, disrespect, and animosity it requires to make an effective diss track," Pierre wrote. Later in the track, Drake references Cole's diss track and apology. At the end of the track, Lamar samples a 1994 Tupac interview to simulate a conversation between the two rappers. "6:16 in LA" also parodies Drake's song titles, which often feature location names and timestamps.
