I wonder how real it will be? Real wound be dangerous to both. That’s why it’s going to make a lot of money. I feel like watching even!

Tyson is 57 years old.

Not sure this is too smart.

Not smart for Paul. Tyson is a different kind of animal.
Joe Rogan thinks so https://youtu.be/bpg...12E5QyKotGZRgcJ

See what I mean! This wil be great for both of them. If it’s not real and therefore safeish. Otherwise my money is on Tyson.if you are betting on it you need to figure out who the desired “face” is. Because they both have a “heel” foundations to their personal brands. My money is on Tyson. Better story arc.

Unless they want race riots before the election. Then Jake. Shoot. Tough bet here.

‘Real life Rocky Balboa’: Local blue collar battler has eyes set on Victoria pro match

 

The rungs on the pro boxing ladder are among the hardest to climb, but a Victoria fighter isn’t afraid of a little hard work.

 

Brandon Colantonio’s day starts early.

 

“I get up and maybe go for a run,” he says. “I work 10 hours, then I go to the gym right after to work out. Then I go teach boxing, then home.”

 

Work is hard labour, sorting refuse and recyclables at HL Disposal. From punching the clock to punching the pads with coach Jason Heit, Colantonio’s work has resulted in a perfect pro record.

 

“He’s currently ranked number 4 in the country in the Super Heavyweight, and he’s on that trajectory that we want him to be on,” says Heit.
