Tyson vs Paul

Vs now. He really has trained well. But his mouth is still wild. Maybe it's a good thing he "beat" Tyson with short, 2 minute rounds in an 8 round match.

He's talking more smack now, like " I woulda killed him but..." Which is ********. He's lucky he had the footwork to stay at range. He can't handle the roap a dope

Completely disagree.

Mike and Paul threw plenty of punches at each other. That's why we have CompuBox.
Here it is...

"Paul landed 78 of 278 total punches and connected on 31 of 179 jabs, per CompuBox. Tyson was far less effective, landing 18 of his 97 total punches to go along with five of 62 jabs..."

Boxing has always been dirty. But an unscrupulous boxing promoter working his first gig, a ex con named Don King, monetized it into what it is today.

A grub most foul.

IMO, a solid beard can also be used

1) to conceal a smug face
That’s what punches are for.
2) to build self esteem and communicate manhood and authority
Beards demonstrate one follows the crowd and slovenliness. Humans manipulate their environment to their advantage, that is one of the primate’s characteristics, and that begins with facial hair 😐
“No razor has ever come upon my head, for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother’s womb. If I am shaven, then my strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man."
-- Samson, Judges 16:15-17 Then she said to him, “How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when you won’t confide in me? This is the third time you have made a fool of me and haven’t told me the secret of your great strength.” With such | New International Version (NIV) | Download The Bible App Now
Crikey! The Bible and science together in one post! 🤢🤮

That tome filled with inconsistencies and inhumanities also says, ‘You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead, or incise any marks on yourselves.’ Leviticus 19:28 and I’m sure bushy ginger beards and tattoos never go together! 😏 Anyway Samson was referring to his head!
Some great scientists also had great beards, Charles Darwin, Lord Kelvin, James Clerk Maxwell...
Only in old age and because they wanted to devote more time thinking deep thoughts rather than shaving. Anyway, I’m not suggesting big bushy ginger beards somehow ‘dull the intellect’, I’m suggesting they’re uncouth and display unoriginality. 😑

Yeah, Irish boxers are great at the dirty business, and it's a sad fact that the judges will often give the decision to the less bloody fighter, unlike the movies.
The Taylor/Serrano fight was a much better bout than Tyson/Paul, but women’s sports usually are these days.
I've had my eye opened up like that before, you cant even suture it, you just use glue.
Serrano’s cut looked awful and the thought of it being punched and head butted…😳
I thought Serrano was robbed but wasn't surprised the Taylor the champ kept her title.
Why are you not surprised?
Barrios vs Ramos was one of the best fights I've ever seen.
I must watch it.
 
Completely disagree.

Anybody saying the fight was fixed is ignorant. Once again, we are are witnessing the modern "I've never boxed, but let me tell you..." Era.
It was boring though. I got to bed at 6am GMT, with the same feeling I remember from my 20s, after enduring a night of clubbing, expensive drinks, tinnitus and then going home alone 😒
