Rigged or not, Jake Paul is still a coward. I'm not saying he's anywhere near Mike Tyson's boxing level while he was a pro but for a 27 year old to want to get in the ring with an almost 60 year old for clout is just pathetic.
He boxed Tommy Fury (not a bad boxer, but definitely not in the top 10 rankings for Cruiserweight division) a guy who boxes maybe once a year and got his sh*t rocked.
If he really wants to prove any hint of integrity or respect as an actual pro. He should box Usyk or Tyson Fury or any heavyweight of appropriate age in the next year or so.
It's only a matter of time before his next opponent is George Foreman.
However, if he was paid to hold back, then he's nothing more than a prostitute.
To think that George Foreman won back the World Championship at 45 to show the world that life isn't over in your forties, and Tyson took $30 million to make the world think that a man is a washed up shell in his fifties.
Ridiculous. Did you see the way Tysons shuffle back to his corner after every round? Did you see his face between rounds? He looked like a 70 year old man by the end of that fight. The answer is clear: Tysons is old, and had not really recovered from his ulcer operation. Regardless, he should not have been in the ring. The fight should not have been sanctioned.
Tyson has like 10 kids. He needed this money, so he sold out. Jake Paul is a career sellout and we should stop paying attention to his grifting exploits.

Tommy Fury is more bottom 10 than top 10. Paul is not a boxer and him fighting Uysk, or Fury, is ridiculous.
Paul fought at 183 for a match last year and putting on 40lbs from weight lifting does not make him a heavyweight. His fighting weight is probably that of a light heavyweight.

Boxers are exactly the male analogues of prostitutes. Always have been.
