Even with the years he has as a disadvantage, I would not have bet against Tyson.

It was genuinely surprising that he didn't win.

To be fair, it went to the judges, and they decided that Tyson didn't do as well as what's-his-face.... And looking at the numbers, it wasn't by much.

Say what you will about the man himself, but Tyson knows his sport and he's damn good at it.

With all that being said, what a crock of shit to waste so much time and effort so that some YouTube wannabe can match up against a retiree. Tyson won more fights than pretty boy has even officially fought, before that dickhead left his daddy's nutsack. Let me put that another way, there was no time in this guy's life where Tyson had yet to win a championship. He's been a world champion for tube boy's entire life.

As far as I'm concerned, Tyson was in it for the payday. Win or lose, Tyson was walking away on top.
