Ummmmmm….yeah. Not much to argue with on that one. He hit the nail on the head and this is no shade to Jake Paul, but Mike Tyson is a natural born killer. He started fighting out of a primal need to survive. Whether or not that need is still there is irrelevant - the mentality is. This isn't a publicity stunt for Mike, this is survival. He may be 58 years old, but deep down inside he's still that same scared shitless 15 year old kid ready to take your head off before you take his. In other words…he's a natural born killer. 

Now, having said that, if I'm Jake Paul I am thrilled that the old Mike is starting to come out. From a promo perspective it doesn't get any better because Mike can't fake it. He is authentic to a fault and that's what sells fights. There aren't any gimmicks, there's ego and pride. Which, for Mike, are much more of a motivating factor. 

I don't know what kind of rules they have in place to slow things down, but I'm hoping Tyson VS Paul is as real of a boxing as it can get. It better be considering Jake is estimated to make $40 million and Tyson $20 million. 

While I have you here, did you guys see the video of the guy telling Mike he robbed him back in the day? 

Natural. Born. Killer. The fight is scheduled for this Friday at 8:00 PM. See you then.
