Tyson, Ali, Mayweather & Our Top 5 Boxers Ever

Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description

Rob Menn is back for the fifth and final part of our conversation, and we're ending this one with some serious fight debates.

We start by talking about investing based on cultural trends, whether the massive amount of money pouring into artificial intelligence is creating an AI bubble, and how recognizing where society is heading could potentially create investment opportunities.

Then we get into Rob's world: fighting.

We debate the greatest UFC fighters of all time, Anderson Silva vs. Jon Jones, whether wrestling is scored too heavily in MMA, and whether AI could eventually do a better job judging fights.

From there, we move into boxing and debate Floyd Mayweather's defensive style, whether winning rounds is the same thing as actually beating your opponent, Mayweather vs. Pacquiao, and ultimately our Top 5 boxers of all time.

And Rob makes his position very clear: Prime Mike Tyson beats everybody.
