“This guy is going to come, he’s going to try to hurt me, which I’m accustomed to. He’s going to be greatly mistaken.”
Probably true.
The lesser Paul at -500? WTH is that?
I don’t suppose there is much reasoning behind oddsmakers’ decisions, although there should be.
In what world is a child with no experience at boxing such a favorite? Tyson’s just going to have a heart attack or run out of steam at the end of round two? 58 is ancient in many sports, but this is a child without any history of heart or experience. At any sport, including boxing. No, MMA is not boxing.
So, given that the rules of this “exhibition” are not fully disclosed yet, it may well come down to a civil lawsuit to decide if whatever TKO is what was agreed upon.
IMHO this is a situation that encourages great cynicism on what used to be a sport.
