Terence Crawford Said It: Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul Was…

Boxing Now

Terence Crawford went on Joe Rogan and said what most fighters won’t say out loud. If you watched Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson, you probably felt something was off too.  In this boxing breakdown, I’m reacting to Terence Crawford on the Joe Rogan Experience claiming the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight was scripted, and I’m matching that to what shows up on tape. Watch the highlights and you’ll see moments where Mike Tyson appears to pull punches in the first few rounds—jabs and shots that start to fire, then get held back.  This isn’t about being a conspiracy guy. It’s about watching boxing with your eyes open. I was getting crushed in the comments for saying it looked controlled. Now you’ve got Terence Crawford—one of the best fighters alive—basically confirming the same suspicion on the biggest podcast in the world.  If you want a real boxing analysis of what’s happening in those exchanges, watch the clips and tell me: do those punches look like they’re finishing?

00:32He's going to have an exhibition with Tyson, which is crazy.

00:35Yeah, that's crazy.

00:36Mike is so much bigger than him. He's so much bigger than him.

00:41He's not going to land a fist on Mayweather.

00:44I don't know, man.

00:46Right.

00:47It's not after his last performance.

00:50Yeah.

00:50I think Tyson just needs to get it.

01:08It is just like...

01:11It's heartbreaking to see an icon go out like that.

01:15Yeah.

01:16But it's crazy also to see him fight at 57 years old.

01:20Yeah, but still, he shouldn't have been in there.

01:23In these years, you become very skillful with your swords.
