It seems like Jake is picking on washed up fighters at this point. Why doesn't Jake move up the amateur rankings like a normal boxer. That is what you do in order to prove you are legit. Instead he cheery picks older guys. He lost to the one young guy he fought. This is so corny. Secondly why is Mike even taking this fight? Money??
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Jake Paul owns the promotion and gets to pick the gloves the fighters wear. I didn't even know gloves came in 18 ounces.16 is the biggest I have used, and they are training gloves. It's like getting hit with a firm pillow. The point is to not injure your training partner. Actual fight gloves for boxing are 8 to 10 ounces, but that is misleading, because the weight is around the wrist. It's mostly just a sheet of leather over the knuckles with much less padding than mma gloves. The knuckle protection in boxing comes from guaze and tape on the hands underneath the gloves.
Lol huh i dont understand.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
So you are saying he is not really trying to hurt Mike.
100% he is.

When people get old they yearn for their earlier "glory days."
Athletes when they are young get tons of admiration and respect. It's hard to handle life without that.
My point is that Tyson likes the idea of getting back into the ring enough so he's willing to this.
This is going to be a clown fight anyway. They're using 18oz gloves and headguards.
Oh okay makes sense.

Mike is going to drop him
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
I hope!

Is Mike broke? I remember as a little kid, I loved Tyson still do, but I have a bad feeling about this, this to me seems staged and that Tyson may have taken a payday just to take a "Fall" THis guy should be on a beach having some lemonade not fighting

I've seen Tyson recently on some shows where he does some fake sparring against air...
That dude still has hands that are quick and violent as fvck.
That level of violence is something that very few people ever have or ever will have used against them.
If Paul gets hit with one of those he may not wake up until the following week.

The last I saw, they had dropped the head guard idea.
As a side note, head guards are pointless. They don't protect the fighter. It just looks like it does, which makes the regulatory bodies happy.

I'd want Tyson too, but since he couldn't knock out Jones; it's possible Paulie boy will win. After all, he's being paid by Paulie's company.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
