While Tyson began the fight with promise, his age was evident as he failed to deliver the knockout that many had hoped for. Paul, wearing luxurious shorts and boasting a social media following of 70 million, capitalized on his youth and athleticism, frustrating both Tyson and the audience. Despite the disappointment, the event proved profitable, with ticket sales bringing in over £14.1 million, and significant figures from sport and entertainment in attendance. As for Paul, he faces doubts about his claim to challenge elite boxer Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez, with many feeling he only shined in a fight against the shadow of a former champion.
