00:00Let's start with this Tyson fighting Paul tonight in Jerry's world in Arlington.
00:08Are you surprised he got cleared to fight considering his age and the fact that he had
00:13a medical episode just a month or two ago?
00:16Yeah, I spent a couple months since that ulcer and bleed.
00:20That's why we said it would be delayed so long.
00:23We talked a lot about this.
00:24I even had Jim Lampley on my little podcast for a little bit talking about it.
00:29It's not a traditional fight, right?
00:31It's 14-ounce gloves instead of 10-ounce, two rounds, two-minute rounds, eight rounds.
00:36It'll be interesting.
00:37But here's the thing.
00:39I don't care who you are, and I am a huge fan of the great Mike Tyson, but he's 58,
00:45okay?
00:46I don't know how old you are, Scott, but, you know, I'm an old guy.
00:50All right.
00:51I mean, come on now.
00:52I mean, like, in high school, I could maybe barely dunk a basketball.
00:55I can't touch the bottom of the net, okay?
00:58It's a 27-year-old, okay?
01:01I mean, look, can he get lucky and catch him early?
01:04But Jake Paul's going to stay away, and think about this.
01:07Jake Paul's going to stay away from him early to tire him out a little bit, and if Jake
01:11Paul is also not going to beat him up early, why?
01:14Because it'd be like elder abuse if he does.
01:16So it's going to be entertaining.
01:18It's a made-for-TV thing, but I just don't see how any—okay, Scott, name any physical
01:25sport with contact and stamina involved, whether football, basketball, name it, where
01:30a 58-year-old could beat a 27-year-old.
01:34I mean, look, Michael Jordan at 58 against a 1AA college player in a full-court NBA game,
01:41not half-court, or Jerry Rice at 58 being covered by a 27-year-old, age, father time
01:49is a beast.
01:50That's all I can say.
01:51Yeah.
01:52I mean, I think it's stupid, the whole thing, to be honest with you.
01:55I think it's a farce, and I think you've got to be half-stupid to even watch it.
