Describing the November 15 showdown between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul as the ‘fight of the century’ without irony, wrestling icon Hulk Hogan shared some betting advice with TMZ viewers on Wednesday.
Contrary to expectations, Hogan didn’t favor the 27-year-old Paul, a former YouTube sensation with ten sanctioned bouts in the last four years. Instead, he backed Tyson, despite the 57-year-old boxer battling an ulcer condition.
“When he focuses, he’s a force to be reckoned with,” explained the 70-year-old, formerly known as Terry Bollea, to TMZ. “I can see that intense determination in his eyes now. It’s akin to the wary gaze you’d give a dangerous dog, knowing it could snap at any moment. That’s the look he’s sporting.”
