On Sean O'Malley's podcast, someone said, "They put Tyson in a wheelchair to stand him up." This comment was about how much effort went into making the Tyson-Paul fight happen.
Paul and Davis are quite different physically. Paul fights at cruiserweight or heavyweight, stands 6'1", and weighs over 200 pounds. Davis, on the other hand, competes at super featherweight, lightweight, or super lightweight. He's 5'5" and weighs around 150 pounds.
The Paul-Tyson fight started as an exhibition but ended up being a professional match sanctioned by the Texas Commission. Tyson, who's 58, had to work really hard to get ready. He even needed physical recovery sessions that left him in a wheelchair before the fight.
Some people think a Paul-Davis fight could start as an exhibition and then become professional. Paul's team says they're okay with any format, as long as the result is real and clear.
Not everyone agrees about whether Paul and Davis should fight. But in today's boxing world, almost anything can happen. The story about Tyson in a wheelchair shows how far people will go to make these big fights happen.
