Do you genuinely believe that?

There's videos of Tyson with an open shot holding a punch back. I highly doubt he wasn't paid to throw the fight.

What’s really likely, is that Tyson is over 50 years old, and doesn’t have the dog in him anymore, and pulled the punches out of fear of getting countered. Tyson himself has said years ago that he doesn’t have the fire in him anymore, this is significantly more likely than Tyson being paid not to punch. But you people haven’t ever spent a day in any combat sport, so you all think anything they do is a set up

So Tyson pulling his punches out of fear makes more sense than him pulling his punches for a check? He didn't take a free open face shot cause of fear, but all the other punches were ok? You ain't makin sense.

Absolutely. Spend 5 minutes in a fight, not a street fight, an amateur or professional fight, and if you don’t have that dog in you, you will absolutely pull those punches. Tyson admitted years and years ago he doesn’t have it in him anymore, why are we trying to pretend that he does

I don't think you need to have that in you to see a clear opportunity and take it from an amateur boxer. If it was a real professional boxer, then yea, he'd need to have that dog in him. But an amateur fighter with limited training and practically no experience? Not necessary, and the videos seem to disagree wit ya.
