Famous boxer alleges that the fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul was intentionally predetermined.

On Friday, the world will witness a highly anticipated event as Mike Tyson and Jake Paul come face to face in Dallas. This fight, expected to be one of the biggest in boxing history, has caught the attention of many, including former world champion Carl Froch. However, Froch raises an interesting point, stating that there may be a clause in the contract that prevents Tyson from causing any real harm to his opponent.

With a 31-year age difference between them, it's no surprise that Tyson, once the youngest world champion, retired from the ring in 2005. In fact, his recent health problems have been well-documented, with the 58-year-old admitting that he "almost died" due to an ulcer flare up that caused the original fight date to be postponed from July to Friday.

Unlike Tyson's previous return to the ring in 2020, where he fought fellow legend Roy Jones Jr under special exhibition rules, this fight will be held under professional rules, allowing for knockouts in the eight-round contest. However, Froch remains skeptical, refusing to recognize it as a true professional fight and instead labeling it as a money-making exhibition.

"It's an exhibition fight," Froch states. "Tyson doesn't even have a license, and it's only eight two-minute rounds. This is not professional boxing." His doubts only grow stronger when he questions the fairness of the match, pointing out that Tyson, an older man, will be facing a much younger opponent in Paul.

Froch even goes as far as to suggest that there may be something in the contract preventing Tyson from giving his all in the fight. "I've heard and believe that there is something in the contract which means Tyson can't even try and hurt him," he reveals. "It's an old man against a young man, it's not fair."

Despite Tyson's impressive physical transformation and rigorous training regime, Froch remains unconvinced of his chances. While he acknowledges that Tyson still possesses immense power, he believes that the fight has been predetermined to ensure that Tyson doesn't knock out Paul.

"Tyson certainly has a small chance because, as a former elite professional fighter, he can still throw a punch," Froch admits. "But in my view, it's all fixed in advance for Paul and Tyson won't have the opportunity to do that."

In the end, Froch's main concern is not about the outcome of the fight but rather the safety and well-being of both fighters. He questions the validity of this match, stating that it does not prove anything and is simply a money-making spectacle.

"Tyson retired from boxing 19 years ago," Froch reminds us. "It's happening because it's a money-spinner and, from that point of view, I admire it. Jake Paul is, if nothing else, a money machine. He's got his demographic, his audience of teenagers."

It remains to be seen what will unfold on Friday when the two men finally collide in the ring. Will Tyson be able to prove the doubters wrong and show that he still has what it takes to be the "Baddest Man on the Planet"? Or will Paul's youth and training as a boxer give him the upper hand? Only time will tell.
