Ben Shalom commented on the match between the former absolute world champion and the famous blogger.

Another boxing celebrity spoke out against Mike Tyson’s fight – Jake Paul. The famous promoter Ben Shalom, without finding a word, criticized this fight.

The functionary especially did not like the professional status previously given to the match. Shalom called it a mockery of real athletes.

“I love entertainment, but for me there is a limit when it becomes a mockery of sport.

A professional boxing match for a 58 year old man is clearly unprofessional. This is where the limit for such fights has to be drawn. It’s okay for fun, but for me entering professional boxing is too much. It’s a circus show, you can’t think of anything more ridiculous.

When they try to knock each other out, there’s a lot of medical risk for an older fighter like Tyson,” Shalom was quoted as saying by talksport.

We remind you that the fight between Tyson and Paul is scheduled for July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, USA. At the time it was held, the ex-absolute world champion was already 58 years old.

Earlier, the ex-world champion called on Mike Tyson to knock out the blogger.
