While most would jump out of their skin if Mike Tyson tried to punch them, Floyd Mayweather had a completely different reaction. The rivalry between the pair of boxing titans came to a head during the WBC convention at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, back in 2015.

Floyd Mayweather gives surprising reaction as Mike Tyson feints a punch at him

While fans of novelty boxing may be salivating for the scheduled Mike Tyson-Jake Paul fight on November 15th, former world welterweight titlist Shawn Porter doesn’t think the fight will end up going down. “I hate to be the bearer of bad news,” the popular former champion claimed on The Porter Way podcast, “we’re not gonna ever see Mike Tyson get in the ring with Jake Paul…I don’t call the shots, I just don’t think Mike’s getting in the ring.” As far is Porter is concerned, the Tyson-Paul fight has been ridiculous from the get-go. “I just don’t see it happening,” he continued. “It didn’t make sense, to me, even from a business standpoint.”

Mike Tyson has been backed to knock Jake Paul “into next week” when they finally square off in November by a boxing legend who has been in a similar position. Ever since Jake Paul and Mike Tyson announced that they’d be fighting, critics have harped on about the age gap between them. Jake, 27, is 31 years younger than ‘Iron’ Mike, 58, with the boxing legend having not fought since 2020.

This writer once did an article, “‘Sugar’ Ray Leonard Knocked out Floyd Mayweather!” The first line said it was Sr., 15-1, not Jr., in September of 1978. Ray was 13-0. Looking at both ‘Sugar’ and ‘Money’ starting in the Olympics, Ray won Gold in 1976 in Montreal, defeating all six opponents. His amateur record was 145-5 with 75 stoppages. ‘Money’ lost a disputed decision in the semi-final for a Bronze medal, losing to Serafim Todorov, 94-14, of Bulgaria, by a 10-9 score in the Atlanta Olympics in 1996. His amateur record was 84-9.

Ray Leonard and Floyd Mayweather Jr. have excellent records in their amateur boxing before stepping up to the professional level. Amateur-wise, Leonard had 145 fights and lost only five of the fights, of which 75 of the wins came through knockouts, a feat he completed before competing in the 1976 Montreal Olympics, where he won the Gold Medal. The fight is, however, luckily placed next to the Gold Medal match, who was narrowly beaten in the semi-finals of the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta after a very contentious fight against Serafim Todorov. At the beginning of his boxing career, he was virtually unbeaten in 84 fights, nine of which were defeats.
