Although Rosie Perez has always been an avid boxing fan, she kept her enthusiasm a secret because many people thought it was “too barbaric.” However, she began sharing her thoughts on Twitter a few years ago while live-commenting on fights. Known as the “First Lady of Boxing,” Rosie Perez will serve as the official commentator for this Friday’s highly anticipated bout between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul in Dallas. Netflix will stream the event live. Rosie informed me on Thursday that this fight would be fascinating. Mike Tyson is now in 50’s, while Jake Paul is in his late 20s. The difference is three decades. It’s truly strange!
Commentator Rosie Perez on Mike Tyson and Jake Paul fight: ‘I’m more worried for Tyson because of his age
Perez, like many others, was unhappy with Paul’s career beginning. “When he came into boxing career, everybody was against him an even me also ,” she recalled. However, it was motivated by concern rather than hatred. It’s a legitimate sport. There is no room for play when it comes to boxing. People may sustain injuries. I was against him because I’ve seen people die in the ring. He didn’t give up, though. He continued. He continued to go on and on.
Commentator Rosie Perez Says, ‘I’m more worried for Tyson.
“How concerned are you that Mike or Jake might suffer severe injuries?
Every boxing match worries me because one punch has the power to end the bout. Yes, it is possible for someone to be abruptly unconscious at times. So I’m concerned. Although I’m concerned about Jake Paul as well as Tyson, I’m more concerned about Tyson because he’s getting older.
Would you give him a handshake if he attended the Tyson-Paul fight?
No, but because he will be our next president, I wouldn’t treat him rudely. Although I don’t mean to offend him, I’m not sure whether I would shake the man’s hand sincerely. However, as I already stated, politics and boxing should not be combined. It would be a really wise move for him to come, so I think he will most likely do so.
