Posted by geseco12: It is obvious that they fight for money, since it is a way to earn more, plus Tyson is a man who did not earn much money before, but now that everyone recognizes him, he can do many things with his image and earn much more, since before it was difficult because there were no social networks.
He made over 400 millions during hes career and he was known all over the world before internet was even a thing. He spent the money ofcourse as fast as he earned, so not saying he is rich today, but you can not say he finally becomes famous and earns money because of this fight or because of Logan.

The question would be if he already spent the money he earned from his fights and image? Or did he invest it to continue winning? If it is the first, I think it is unfortunate. Now I think that since he is bankrupt, he wants to earn money from whatever he wants. even though he is very old.

History has shown several times that people who suddenly earned a lot of money in their lives and became famous lost a lot of money just as quickly. Unfortunately, money and fame often make us make bad decisions, borrow money, invest badly, buy everything we can afford and suddenly find that there is nothing left. This was also the case with Tyson, at least that's my impression.

That is unfortunate, that they no longer fight for passion but for money, now this has to be settled in the ring, I wish we had seen him fight when he was young and not when he was old, but we have to settle for that, that's life.

That's how the business moves, now they fight for it, you must have a passion to fight and not just see the money, the fight has to come out clean of everything, enjoy it, which is the most important thing.

Wow this guy Mike Tyson. I will never forget that ear bite the years years ago when I still was a kid. I heard also this guy smokes a lot of weed LOL. Let's hope he's more chill than years ago now.

It seems that Tyson is going to be given a good fight choice, he is talking a lot before the fight, but I think that he is already at an age where he does not fight and he does it for money, maybe that could happen to him and that he young man give him what he deserves.
