Tyler Goodjohn takes shot at Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson, labels Netflix fight a debacle
Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson was a highly polarizing prizefight with a former BKB champion as well as a former BKFC title challenger offering his thoughts on the boxing bout from last Nov.
Appearing on a recent episode of Bare Knuckle Bowker, Tyler Goodjohn covered several subjects leading to his BKB 40: Cardiff Brawl 3 fight with Joseph Smith, which took place on April 19.
Goodjohn referred to the Tyson vs. Paul fight as a debacle and expressed that if anything can be marketed right, it can be sold to the public.
"I mean anything. Even a sixty year old Mike Tyson. I mean it had people believing that he was going to go in there and knock Jake Paul out. It was gonna be this and it was gonna be that. I mean look, anyone who has half a boxing brain and just half a brain basically, knew that that wasn't going to be the case. At the end of the day, age catches up with us all."
Goodjohn added:
"What Mike Tyson was like when he was twenty one, he can't do when he's sixty. Just because we all see a ten second clip of him smashing the pads to bits didn't mean that he was going to do it on fight night. It was just embarrassing because you know obviously Mike Tyson after about twenty seconds, Jake Paul just carried him."

Jake Paul, Mike Tyson, and what both have been up to since their fight
