  1. >“This is one of those situations when you lost but still won. I’m grateful for last night. No regrets to get in ring one last time,” Tyson wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “I almost died in June. Had 8 blood transfusions. Lost half my blood and 25lbs in hospital and had to fight to get healthy to fight so I won.”

    >“To have my children see me stand toe to toe and finish 8 rounds with a talented fighter half my age in front of a packed Dallas Cowboy stadium is an experience that no man has the right to ask for. Thank you,” he concluded.

  2. He got paid. I wouldn’t regret it either. Not his fault America is full of morons paying to watch a 60 yo fight an entertainer

  3. Mans supposedly made 20 million to chase Paul around and take a few jabs – 1 million a minute. He’s the real winner.

  4. “I have no regrets about the obscene amount of money I got for that farce”

    Fixed it for you

  5. “It was a good script, maybe both of us can be in the next Marvel movies, as Superman and Batman”

  6. Old boxers keep fighting to make money. That’s what they do, unless they’ve been smart with their earnings (which Tyson was not). Long after they should stop, they keep getting punched in the head. At least Tyson got to make a shitload of money “fighting” someone who probably couldn’t have hurt him even if he tried.

  7. Mike Tyson had a net worth of around $10,000,000 (according to Celebrity Net Worth) he just tripled it No regrets 👍

  8. Yeah, that fight was trash but the way I see it, I already pay for Netflix so I’m not out anything but time. The Serrano fight was worth it for me and I actually turned it off after that because it wouldn’t stop buffering. Watched it this morning and could have and probably should have skipped it.

  9. “Too bad we gotta get old huh Stallion…”

  11. He has no regrets. I have many regrets investing time in watching that garbage.

  13. Of course he doesn’t regret it. It was the easiest boxing bout of his life.

  16. The undercard with Serrano was really what the night was about. I’ve watched hundreds of boxing matches and that was one of the best.

  17. Id have no regrets too making 20 million in under 20 minutes.

  19. “I almost died in June. Had 8 blood transfusions. Lost half my blood and 25lbs in hospital” – that’s better than David Hayes bad toe excuse that’s for sure

  20. I’m starting to think that this fight was put on not because Jake Paul can only beat up old people, but it was for Mike Tyson to experience another fight like the good ol days and he knew Jake Paul wouldn’t do any real damage to him.

  21. To be fair Tyson didn’t do too bad when you consider his health issues, it’s impressive he finished the fight even if he was carried, and he got himself in that condition.

  22. I’ve no idea how some inner city thug got to be like this, but holy fuck, he’s grown into a something approaching what can only be described as a beautiful human being inside and out.

  23. So much cope from mike to make it look like he didn’t just take this fight for the money and never put any effort in.

  24. The WWF should sue him for unauthorised performance of their intellectual property. Even though they were real refs and real boxing gloves it was definitely a WWF style performance

  26. I’m glad he made the money but this was kind of a sad way for Tyson to go out. He lost, got left hanging twice by Paul when he tried to shake his hand, and the last thing we see is his defeated butt cheeks in the locker room. Idk that’s not what this week should have looked like for a legend of that caliber. All very sloppy

  27. Iron Mike deserves a $20 million pay day, as far as the entire circus that Jake Paul brought to this shit show. Not impressed it was a bust, the pigeon stunt was the cherry on how campy this shit show was.

  28. Anybody who got suckered into the hype are the real losers. It was doomed to be lame from the get go. Taylor and Serrano got 110% more skill and badassery yet will struggle to be remembered and be paid a thousand times less than the disappointing title bout.

  31. i really enjoyed all the fights except for the title card. obvs the serrano fight turned the most heads. that was a brawl.

    i rrally liked the barrios/ramos fight. it felt like barrios was the more advanced fighter for like 5 or so rounds and then ramos found his confidence and made for a fantastic fight

  32. That’s a great way to say I love making $20 million less than an hour

  33. This fight shut down netflix that’s plus he knocked out alan in the hangover jake paul didnt thats gotta count 4 sumthin

  34. Good for him. It sort of seemed weird, and even a little staged with the glove biting “fixation” bit. But the other fights were good, overall it was a decent watch.
