    … its quite a profitable grift, to keep staging ludicrously mismatched clown fights.

    He’s just fine being the clown.

    Like… he went for below the belt, takedown style grabs.

    … In a boxing match.

    He is a clown person.

    EDIT:

    Super/Regular Eyepatch Wolf has very good, more throrough explanations of what I mean here.

    I guess its not as obvious to those who’ve not done competetive combat sports or martial arts of some kind.

      Most of boxing is a literal grift, he didn’t beat Tyson, not even a 50 year old tyson, he would fucking flatten this clown id he wanted, but I am guessing they made a lot more money by tyson losing.

      Betting scams all around

      I can’t imagine being so mentally broken I’d take a broken jaw for attention in a fight I had no chance of winning
