Non-event
Tyson ok for the first 2 two minute rounds but looked knackered after that. The next six rounds Tyson was just easing out the time and Paul just not good enough to land any decent shots against a 58 year old. Glad it was free on Netflix, would not have been happy to pay for what was little more than an exhibition fight.
The womens fight before that was a real good one. Energy, head butting, punches from all angles and I’ve never heard a referee be slated by a trainer like that in the ring after a fight. Though the replays showed some real head butts during the fight not stopped, so maybe his anger was justified. The winner had a nasty cut over the eye from one of them.

Though the replays showed some real head butts during the fight not stopped, so maybe his anger was justified. The winner had a nasty cut over the eye from one of them. From what I read about the womens fight between , the winner was ''Ireland's Katie Taylor who was booed as she successfully retained her undisputed light-welterweight title with a contentious points win against Amanda Serrano. Taylor repeatedly leaned in with her head, causing a nasty cut above Serrano's right in the fourth round which opened up later in the fight as blood poured down the Puerto Rican's face'' From all accounts, the Tyson vs Paul fight proved to be a bit of a non event !
''Ireland's Katie Taylor was booed as she successfully retained her undisputed light-welterweight title with a contentious points win against Amanda Serrano at the AT&T Stadium in Texas. The pair served up another classic in their rematch, with Serrano's relentless volume punching and Irishwoman Taylor's smart countering. Taylor repeatedly leaned in with her head, causing a nasty cut above Serrano's right in the fourth round which opened up later in the fight as blood poured down the Puerto Rican's face. The 38-year-old was docked a point for a headbutt in the eighth, which convinced those in attendance that Serrano had done enough to gain revenge for a close points loss in 2022. But all three judges scored the fight 95-94 for Taylor. "I knew it was an absolute slugfest in there, an absolute war," Taylor said as she welcomed a trilogy bout. "I definitely didn't agree with the point deduction. I certainly wasn't fighting dirty. Sometimes it gets rough in there."

The fights that Katie Taylor has been involved in have been far and away better than anything the men have produced.
