Sports superstars choose Jake Paul to take out Mike Tyson

BloodyElbow.com has compiled a list of famous faces who believe Jake Paul will knock out Mike Tyson on November 15th.

Logan Paul said on Instagram: “Let’s go Jake! Mike Tyson, you don’t even know. You’re messing with the Pauls, man. Let’s go, Jake. Knockout in the first round. Yes!”

In an interview with talkSPORT, Stephen Thompson expressed his concerns: “At this age I don’t think Mike Tyson should suffer any harm or damage his legacy. I think it could hurt his legacy because if he gets beaten by Jake Paul, that’s what he might be remembered for.”

Sean O’Malley told The Schmo: “I just feel like Jake is too caught up in it, has been at it too long, who’s been at it more in the last five years? I think that’s important. He’s what, 30 years younger? I just don’t see a good ending for Uncle Mike.”

In a breakdown to talkSPORT, British boxing champion Denzel Bentley explained: “Tyson will try but it won’t be enough. He hasn’t been hit in the face for many years. They are two-minute rounds, which means the pace will be very fast. Can his heart withstand this? I think Jake Paul wins.”

Former NFL star and former boxer Le’Veon Bell gave his prediction to The Schmo, claiming: “I think he beats Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson will obviously look great for his age. But at the end of the day, Jake Paul did this, he’s locked in and he’s done it now.”

While many expect Paul to secure the win, others believe Tyson can produce another moment of greatness.

Roy Jones Jr. said in an interview with MMANYTT: “I believe in Mike, probably through a decision. But if he wants to finish it, he can. However, if he just wants to enjoy the fight, he might slow down and have some fun.”

Tyson Fury told The Stomping Ground: “Look, if Mike Tyson beats someone, I don’t care if he’s 90, he’s going to knock them out, isn’t he? Of course I have to support Mike Tyson. I am named after the legend and I will support him. Since he always supports me, I support Mike for the knockout. Come on, Mike!”

Film star Mark Wahlberg told Clockednloaded he hopes the icon still has something left in the tank, saying: “Mike is a dear friend and hopefully he stays healthy and he does the old Mike thing again.”

Lennox Lewis told Fox 29: “Mike Tyson will win. He’s not that old yet. Don’t take him too gently. We’re a year apart. It’s good to fight someone like that, because the person you’re fighting isn’t a real fighter, and there are a hundred things you’ve forgotten that he’s learning.”

Speaking to Fight Hub, Evander Holyfield explained: “Mike is like a snake. He will come after you. He gets there too quickly. But if you attack him, you will suffocate him. He pushes his legs off so he’s too close, but if you give him space he’ll knock everyone out as he goes backwards. Give him space and you’ll get confused.”
