That video was taken a year ago, before Tyson even planned to fight again. Just lmao.
Maybe he threw Mike a few million to hold back the hard punches and let it go to the cards. But if the fight isn't rigged, Paul is going to be a vegetable when it's over.

Either the fight is rigged or Jake Paul is going to die.

People don’t like to hear it, but a 27 year old athletic man that’s been training boxing consistently for four years has a hell of an advantage over a 58 year old that’s been through wars in the ring, abused Pepsi and drank a ton. Those 31 years are gonna be a factor regardless of how great Tyson used to be.
Imagine a current D2 basketball player challenging 60 year old MJ to one on one.Lurking since '05 - the days of VS gorilla/cloud/goku threads

As someone who has been boxing since he was 16 (11 years of on and off experience at this point) and has sparred tons of people from different age ranges, you are absolutely correct. I picked up boxing somewhat late as I came from a wrestling/bjj/kenpo background before getting into it. But once I started boxing that is where I directed the vast majority of my combat training focus.
Point being at my best I was/am a sparring partner for some lower level professionals and higher level amateurs that compete in golden gloves..and in these sessions I have my good and bad days with them. I am on par with them..which is also around the level I believe Jake Paul to be.
However even good former professionals I’ve gotten some work with doing body work and light sparring, there is a massive gap..people who I have no problem admitting in their prime had more skill than myself but simply can’t keep up with me if I decide to turn up the intensity at all..the difference in coordination, speed and timing are the biggest differences..but it does go beyond that as well. Even their cardio, ability to take shot, strength, etc are often noticeably worse.
When you are sparring active, young guys you become used to moving your feet and head very quickly. The older guys don’t have the hand speed to give you problems in comparison nor the reflexes/coordination to get out of the way of what you are throwing at them.
Now someone can say yeah but are those older guys you’ve sparred Mike Tyson? To which I will concede no they aren’t, however they are still younger than Tyson by a significant amount and when I watch Tyson train I see the same decaying in reflexes and skills I typically see in older fighters. Though credit to him he’s doing better than most his age.*MMA Crew

None of the guys you sparred with that were former pro's come close to Mike Tyson lol.
You can train for skill, but Mike is a purebred. There's no comparison to the average pro.
I've knocked out two golden gloves boxers, both my size in street fights lol.
That being said, this fight is setup strictly to line people's pockets. Boxing is dead.

I mentioned that the older guys I’ve sparred aren’t Mike Tyson but they are also significantly younger than him..the point is if you watch him train you can see the decrease in speed, agility, reflexes etc. Mike is a guy who relied heavily on his explosiveness, he’s not a brawler type like a Foreman who relied on pure natural power and size.
I would be surprised if there is a man nearing 60 on the planet that would be able to defeat someone like a Jake Paul in a combat situation. If Mike was fighting a random guy or someone making their boxing debut that’s a different story. But Paul is an athletic puncher. That is a dangerous for any guy that age range to go against, even Mike. Your ability to take a shot isn’t there the same way at 58 (the age Mike will be by the time of the fight).*MMA Crew

People are underestimating Jake Pauls boxing skills for sure. Weren't the brothers pretty high level wrestlers all the way through middle & high school? Now with pro boxing experience, I wouldn't be surprised if they transitioned into MMA. Jake is training BJJ already for PFL. How people think a 60 year old can beat a 27 year old young lad in his prime physical fitness level even if it's mike Tyson is wild.

Mike Tyson in his prime because he was far better in all other areas of the boxing game and on top of that his reflexes were probably on par with the guy in the video. In order to use the peekaboo style you have to have good reflexes and he was using it against the top guys in the world.
