Predictions for the Big Game

With results eagerly awaited for the fight, the MMA Writer Anatoly Pimentel writes: "Paul’s youth and athleticism can power him over Tyson, and my prediction is a unanimous decision for Paul. Similar to previous opponents when he drained them in the later rounds and dominated them with vicious combinations, Paul could do the same to Tyson." (P. Anatoly, USA Today) 

Whereas in another report, it was stated by the former WBC heavyweight champion Striverne that: "I don’t think it will last more than six rounds. In the first half of the fight, the younger guy is going to come out to try and impose himself, but I see Mike working his body and dragging him into deep water from early on in the fight. Mike is a lot older, but he still has the ambition to fight and has bad intentions. He still hits the pads hard, looks great on the pads and it’s not like he fighting somebody who is a live opponent. Mike is taking this fight seriously and I don’t see in any way how he loses this fight against Jake Paul.” (Baccart.net) 

According to these statements, the odds seem to be balanced between both the boxers, could it be the mighty force of Tyson, or will Jake Paul win against all the doubts he’s been facing from the critiques?
