Want a battle of two different generations? It was recently announced that Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will fight in July 2024 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX, USA. Mike Tyson is obviously beyond his prime. Jake Paul is still fairly inexperienced. Tell you what, though... this could be rather even. We'll have to see how this shapes up once this match happens.

I don't think that it would be even. Jake Paul isn't the worst boxer and is almost certain to beat Mike Tyson without much problem.

The fight slated between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will be a professionally-sanctioned fight. I think the call is going to be for 14-pound gloves for both boxers with eight two-minute rounds. So this fight is for real. Maybe not a fight on level with today's most talented boxers, but this fight's going to be a thing.


[OMISSION] The result of this fight WILL impact their overall records.

Bivol vs. Beterbiev was outstanding. I agree with the first two judges but the 112-116 card was ridiculous. Bivol was the better boxer but that guy Beterbiev is a granite slab of hurt. Dude's chin got rocked twice and he didn't flinch, and he punches so hard your ancestors feel it.

Manny Pacquiao is among one of the finalists to be inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2025. If you never this Filipino fighter fight before, the Pac-Man is a very agile fighter. His biggest accomplishment is being a title holder in eight different divisions. Someone today who is like a modern Manny Pacquiao is Japanese boxer, "The Monster" Naoya Inoue. I am a fan of Manny Pacquiao (and even Naoya Inoue). All congratulations to Manny Pacquiao on soon being inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame!
 
There is a new MMA league coming in April 2025. From what I read, it kind of harks back to an old MMA league called the World Combat League. This new league will be known as the Global Fight League (GFL), and it will be headed by eight former UFC Champions. Here is more info on the upcoming league courtesy of Yahoo! Sports: https://sports.yahoo.com/global-fig...ns-about-the-upstart-promotion-183306443.html .

Respond, if you wish about this new league.
