There are few moments in sports where you watch them live thinking "This is the end of one era and the beginning of a new one", but this was one of those. Tyson was only a 4:1 favorite and Vegas had 7:5 odds the fight would go 6 rounds. Spinks was 31-0 and looked like he had started boxing a week ago.

Carano took a dive. For her it was more about getting back in shape and getting a pay day than actual fighting since she will never act again after suing Disney. Good for her for screwing Netflix.

Sure felt like a dive to me. In one clip she was smiling while in the arm bar.

Agree w/the Jake Paul schtick. He's *******ized boxing and MMA to the point it feels more and more like scripted wrestling.

Nate Diaz is one tough mo-fo but damn if he doesn't sound like the dumbest SOB on the planet.

Yeah not sure we had another heavyweight like Tyson.
Always went for the KO.
Hurt him later in his career when he wasn't as fast.
Wasn't much of a jab guy. Arms too short.
But when he got inside, it was over.
I can't think of another like him.
I hope I did not offend anybody with this post. If I did, please come see me at my address in my profile so we can talk.

I'm about done with anything involving Jake Paul/Netflix/Combat sports. Just sign the has-beens, promote the eff out of it, and then it flops. And I keep falling for it.

I'm done. The amount of stretching for time between fights last night was ridiculous. I guess they had to hit their contractual obligations with Netflix but three hours of filler for 22 minutes of action is a joke.
