I posted earlier that when I saw Tyson walking into the stadium...I knew that he didn't have legs. Agreed with the poster above that the editors did a fantastic job of 30 second Tyson flurries that looked devastating...I was even sorry for his coach in the warmup videos. Tyson needed to take the car ride in and not Paul.

People getting mad over a free Netflix fight is kinda funny; there were 2 amazing bouts before this one and most people didn't buy Netflix for this fight...if you did you should have gotten the 30 day trial or whatever it was or surfed the seven seas.

Maybe people haven't watched much boxing but a lot of times the headline fight is like a game 7 in hockey...cagey as crap...no risks taken either way, and then it either just resolves at the end with a decision or there's an accident and it's a knock out.

Put another way...Anthony Joshua is totally ripped and he can box...but he seems like too nice a guy for the grind of sustained championships...Joshua would have destroyed either of these boxers. That's why it won't happen.

Paul moved up at least 2 weight classes for this fight and that takes its own toll on a boxer.

At the end of the day, I was wrong with my prediction. Lots of money was made and there were 2 amazing fights. Other than the streaming issues...it was a fine night of free boxing.

Now...when will Rough n' Rowdy 26 happen? That's entertainment!
