It’s not like that at all. 

Mike Tyson fighting a man renowned for Traveller fighting is very interesting.

More interesting than watching 48 year old Shannon Briggs have a bare knuckle fight, who’s getting paid millions to do so. And people will watch it as is also a hard man.

As said as it would be to watch, I'd rather watch Tyson and Holyfield fight than Eddie Hall and The Mountain from GoT. Very surprised Eddie Hearn hasn't tried to promote that fight.

The video of Eddie Hall doing pad work is sad. He was that slow I had to check if the video was buffering.

Tyson's video he uploaded today Shocked

You should be psychologically examined not physically accepting to fight him just for charity LOL

As the man says, the bag no hit back.

But it would be good to see him do a few short charity fights.
SBW has been mentioned which would be entertaining.

Has the Kinahan gang something to do with the Fury fight? I have seen it mentioned elsewhere without further explanation.

Fury has put him over a number of times publicly recently. Bob Arum (head of top rank) has said Kinahan is his guy in the Middle East, which is really taking off as a rival to Vegas for the mega fights it seems. 

There was a propaganda movie released on YouTube recently about how the Irish media and that are lying about him and the regency.
 
Seems he is trying to go legit

Shows the money he is making to turn to this to go legit. A nonsense it is in Saudi Arabia too.

Worth noting nothing is signed and is only agreed verbally because both fighters have mandatory fights before the fight is allowed to be sanctioned - 

Fury has to fight Wilder again because of a contract clause
Then has to fight Dillian Whyte before February otherwise the belt goes to him

In the meantime Joshua has to fight Pulev.

A lot of the UK media seem oblivious to who Kinahan is. 
time is the stuff that life is made of, don't waste it.

Kinahan is an advisor to Fury and an intermediary for rival promotions. Bob Arum has been singing his praises over the last few months.

Ironically, the widening awareness of his presence within boxing may be the worst thing to happen to him as it was cause greater scrutiny in to his background.

That documentary that was released a couple of weeks ago about the Regency shooting was laughable. Clearly made by the Kinahan's and basically said that Enda Kenny was behind the shooting. Think it was taken down a few days after it was released.

There was a podcast on OTB last night with Kieran Cunningham, who has been very vocal on Twitter recently about Kinahan's involvement in boxing.
