Quotes corner

Paul : "They say he's the baddest man on the planet, so let's find out. Apparently he's the final boss… I love the biggest challenges in the world. That's what's made my whole entire career is taking big risks and I want the toughest guy out there. I want the biggest fights and making history is what I've done my whole entire career. This is no different. Netflix, Mike Tyson. It doesn't get any bigger than this and everyone will see."

Tyson : "I started Jake off and I’m gonna finish him. I don't know if he's in his prime. He's fat. He should be lean and mean and he's fat and funky. I saw him with his shirt off though and he's fat. He's not going to win. He can't even knock out Nate [Diaz] who is like 40 pounds. How's he going to knock me out? Who’s the other guy? Anderson Silva…. He didn't knock out Tommy Fury. He didn't knock those little guys out, knock me out?... Who did he knock out? Little children… [he] never knocked out a real man."
