Peyton Manning takes a jab at Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight after players throw punches during Cowboys vs Texans MNF
Peyton Manning rarely disappoints whenever he's on-air with his brother, Eli, on "Manningcast," the alternative Monday Night Football broadcast by the former NFL quarterbacks.
During Week 11's Monday Night Football game that featured the Houston Texans and Dallas Cowboys, there were a few skirmishes between the teams. During the first quarter, a skirmish broke out, with "Manningcast" and Bill Belichick drawing their attention to the players scrapping.
At one point, Peyton said it was a better fight than Friday night's Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight on Netflix:
"I think this one was better than the one on Friday night."
Jake Paul is 31 years younger than the 58-year-old Mike Tyson. Many people expected Paul to win given the elder Tyson. Overall, the fight didn't get the best reception as many people, like Manning insinuated, thought it was a boring fight.
