Mike Tyson's Ex-Conqueror Predicts Fight Outcome After Witnessing Training: "It's Not Looking Good"

Mike Tyson and Jake Paul will fight in a professional boxing match on November 15. The contest has got people talking, including James 'Buster' Douglas, the man who shocked the world by beating Tyson in 1990.

Douglas doesn't think the fight is too risky for 58-year-old Tyson. He points out that Paul, at 26, isn't a real contender. Douglas told Gambling Zone:

"I don't think Mike fighting is risky because he's not fighting a legitimate 26-year-old contender … Mike is going to be f******g relentless … And the clips I saw of him before, he's looking pretty good. Better than most of the heavyweights out there today … He has no reason to hesitate. Jake needs to go out immediately – and bang – let him know there's something to look out for."

Douglas thinks Tyson will go all out against Paul. He expects the former champ to attack the body and overwhelm the YouTuber-turned-boxer. Douglas added:

"Otherwise it's going to be open target season, and Mike's going to be throwing shots with no worry about what's coming back. Mike has never been worried about what's coming back at him, why the f*** would he be worried about Jake Paul. And I can see Mike going after Paul's body, can he withstand a real body attack? I'm visualising that once Mike gets going, he's going to overwhelm Paul."

The fight will have eight two-minute rounds. Douglas believes this favors Tyson, allowing him to go hard and then recover. He doesn't see much of a future for Paul's boxing career after this fight.

"The two-minute rounds will be to Mike's advantage for sure, those two minutes will pass quickly. You can get your shots off and then recover … It's not going to be good for Jake. I don't think there will be much of a boxing career left for Paul afterwards. I think once Mike gets rid of him, that's it for his boxing career."

Douglas offered some advice for Paul: keep moving, don't stand still, and try to last the whole fight. He sees this as an easy win for Tyson:

"The best scenario for Paul is to just last the entire fight, say he went the distance with Mike Tyson. Keep his hands up and duck those haymakers because they're going to be coming. Paul will be intimidated by those haymakers, they're like rockets. Keep moving Paul, don't stand in front of him, don't stand on the train tracks. I look at it like an easy win. It will be the easiest win of his career. At 65 years old it may be tough, but at 58 it will be a piece of cake."

The fight was originally set for July but got moved to November 15. It's shaping up to be a big event, with Douglas's comments adding to the buzz.
