Have you ever thought about beating up an old person? Me neither! But I know someone who has...
Over the weekend, the Paul vs Tyson fight had many people on the edge of their seats. More like, Netflix was edging all viewers with its continuous lagging of the live stream. Many called the fight sad, and I agree, it is sad. Sad that I had to subject my eyes to this pathetic display of ‘masculinity'. The only part I enjoyed was the entire crowd booing for Jake Paul upon his entrance. I can only hope to elicit that much hate one day, and rightfully so; his entrance was like a 4 year old boy's wildest dream. Supposedly, he spent $1 million on a diamond-encrusted outfit. The fight should have been called: Jake Paul finds pathetic ways to overcompensate for lack of skills and brain cells. Imagine calling out one of the arguably greatest boxers of all time, who is 31 years your senior, to a fight. Selling over 70,000 tickets to view this fight in-person, and having one of the largest streaming services air it live. Then, imagine spending millions of dollars on your outfit and obnoxious entrance just for everyone to boo you. AT YOUR OWN EVENT. That pain has got to be worse than any loss or punch ever experienced. It doesn't even matter that Jake Paul was the overall victor because there's nothing like a bruised ego. But seriously, can we please stop making stupid people famous?!
Why did Mike Tyson succumb himself to such a meaningless event? We have to put ourselves in his shoes: Would you, as a geriatric person, fight some guy in his alleged prime for like $20 mil? Would you let some 27 year old punk out-alpha you? We know men will find any excuse to touch each other, so maybe that has something to do with it. Who's to say...
