Legendary referee John McCarthy reacted to the announcement of a fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson.

"It's driving me crazy. I love Mike Tyson. And Mike was a great fighter, but what do you think would happen if you put Joe Montana on a soccer field right now? There is speed in sports that Mike has lost. I don't care how good shape you're in at 58, when the fight starts - you can't get back to your former shape. When he gets in the ring, he's going to be tired. I look at it and think, 'Shame on us for letting this happen,'" McCarthy told Spinning Back Clique.
