I would _like_ it if the occasional 58 year old can beat a mediocre (but still competent) 27-year-old, but not this time, I suppose.

I think, for anyone who remembers some portion of when Tyson was at the peak of his powers (or picked up the NES game), he seemed amazing enough that, under the right conditions, he had a shot.

So, disappointing that it didn't happen, or wind up being an amazing fight, but I can definitely see why the idea was compelling.

Not that I watched the fight -- I stayed up pretty late, here, and it was still at the, "the stream will begin in x minutes" stage.
