    I don’t see how Paul wins here at all. Either he beats up a 60 year old man or gets beat by a 60 year old man. There’s no way to look good in this.

      Hit the old man enough to win by decision but not actually hurt him. That’s the only real winning path - and exactly what happened.

      Meh it’s the 60 year old man’s decision to fight. Your argument is in the same vein as “you can’t fight against a woman”. If they want it, so be it.

        I wouldn’t fight a woman just because she wants it. I would feel horrible beating her up.

        You have to understand that just because someone wants something, it doesn’t mean they are thinking straight. You shouldn’t take advantage of that.

            It can happen, but statistically adult man vs adult woman is not a fair fight.

            I knew a guy at university; started going out with this smoking hot girl. She was a regional champ in jujitsu; it didn’t last long, turns out she was a violent piece of shit. Beat him up twice, he left after the second one. She had major anger management issues.

            But you turn that story around a little, similar situation, girl has same anger management issues, but without the training etc, she is unlikely to be a threat to any adult guy.

              I think it’s batshit crazy that this has to be told to people these days. Are they competely unaware of the physical differences between men and women?

              Have Hollywood movies become reality for those people?

    Fake News, you couldn’t watch the fight on Netflix it was stills between buffers.

    But for real who expect an out of form 60yo to do anything but loose.

        Also outside USA and stream didn’t work on PC at all starting around the final undercard fight. It kinda worked on my phone for some reason but ended up just finding a pirate stream to continue watching on my computer.

        Wasn’t until the post fight commentary that my official stream started working again

      The only way we watched is on my wife’s Ipad and it was because we weren’t watching live. We were about 10 minutes behind the live stream. I tried to join on my Google TV and Netflix would crash.
