The internet had some hilarious responses to a question about fighting Mike Tyson for $2,500

Honestly, it’s a question that shouldn’t have even been asked, but, in a sense, we’re glad that it was.

Would you be willing to get in the ring with Mike Tyson and not even get $3,00 in return?

Here are the terms: You have to box for 15 minutes (MINUTES … and no gloves?!) with the 53-year-old Mike Tyson for a payout of $2,500.

It was just a preposterous hypothetical scenario that no person in their right minds would ever consider taking. But we’re at a stoppage in the sports world right now, so a Twitter video of the former heavyweight champ air-sparring with his dog had one Twitter user wondering if there would be any takers.

This could be an all-time bad hypothetical.

Let’s just say that Twitter wasn’t exactly jumping at this (made-up) opportunity.

You’re gonna need to add a few zeros there … and gloves. And the answer is still a resounding no.
