Mercy plorst!

Also, I just learned that the Paul/Tyson fight is on Netflix! I'm kinda psyched! I'm gonna watch it and I hope Tyson breaks Paul's head.

you'll be sorely disappointed. no interest to watch and have that guy keep making money off these sad fights. Tyson was getting knocked out by bums 20 years ago to end his career.
 
Do they drug test those guys? If not, they should have had Tyson all jacked up on whatever they’ve been pumping Biden full of.
Wife and I were trying to find something to watch and we watched for about 5 mins. Can someone explain to me why Tyson kept biting his gloves?
 
At the end of the day, outside of the senior olympics, this is why older people do not complete in athletics. Tyson is close to 60. 60 Year old dudes shouldn't be boxing unless its other 60 year olds.
 

There were a lot of good fights last night. But the Jones/Miocic and the Bo Nickal / Craig fight were both boring. Candler / Oliveira won fight of the night...but that was a complete domination by chuckie olives.

The undercard was fun. Ruffy vs Llontop was a head banger. Jim Miller somehow keeps winning ... choking out Jackson. Oban Elliot and Hafez was a head banger as well. Oban Elliot is a beast.

Overall this was a good card.

I forgot about this. Bo nickle gets a standing O walking to the ring. By the time the fight ended, the crowd was chanting overrated.

Does he suck?

He is grossly overrated. That happens easy enough these days. Add in that Nickle is smug and believes he is the next champion...well he didn't show it last night. He came into the fight with a 6 - 0 record and -1200 favorite. Paul Craig's record 17- 8. He is a decent MMA fighter who makes his living on the ground. But he isn't the top tier.

The fight was boring. I don't' believe either fighter landed more than 30 strikes. Both have a wrestling / ju jitsu background but neither even attempted a take downj. The judges scores were accurate. Nickle won all three rounds. But we are looking at rounds were neither fighter landed 10 strikes per round and didn't go for any submissions. It was a sparing match.

Nickle needs several more years of training in MMA and he better be given the right opponents or he will be taken out. Fighting like he as the last two fights, he will not sniff the top 5.
