The main event didn't exactly set the world on fire, but the co-main world title fight between Serrano and Taylor stole the show.
We'll see you next time.
Tyson 'absolutely happy' in defeat
Some post-fight comments from both fighters.
"First and foremost, Mike Tyson it's such an honour ... he is the greatest to ever do it, I look to him and I'm inspired by him," Paul said.
"I'm absolutely happy yes," the former world champ replied.
"I knew who he was a good fighter and he was prepared. I didn't prove nothing to anybody, only to myself. I'm just happy with what I can do."
Tyson also explained the habit of biting his gloves when he fights is because he "has an obsession with biting" in a clear throwback to his infamous Holyfield moment.
Paul gets the nod from judges
The judges score the contest 80-72 79-73 79-73 in favour of Paul.
No surprises there as Tyson's comeback falls flat.
"I'm not surprised at all," Roy Jones Jr. said on commentary.
'Father Time is unbeaten'
The fight comes to an end with very little action from either man.
Tyson and Paul embrace at the end of the eight rounds and there's only one clear winner of the fight and it's the man in his mid-20s.
"Father Time is unbeaten for a reason," Mauro Ranallo said.

Two minutes to go
Tyson came out quick for the first 20 seconds of the seventh round, but he can't maintain the speed and Paul is in total control.
There's two minutes to go in this fight and it's been a complete snoozefest.
Two rounds to go
Paul is staying at distance and Tyson can't get near him.
Two rounds to go and it's pretty clear where this one is headed.
Tyson scores with a counter
Tyson scores with a nice counter-punch with Paul unable to evade it.
The former world champ has regained some of his composure and balance, but still needs to find something soon if he's any chance of stopping Paul.
Three rounds to go.
Four rounds down, four to go
A better round for Tyson, but not much to write home about.
We are half-way through the fight and there hasn't been much in the way of highlights.
Tyson on wobbly legs
Paul is starting to find his feet and Tyson is on wobbly legs early in round three.
The 58-year-old is struggling already and we aren't even half-way through the fight.
"He does not look good at all," Roy Jones Jr. said on commentary.
"He is in big trouble, this might be his last round."

Tame second round
Tyson is continually biting his glove in the second round - something he did plenty during the peak of his powers.
A rather tame two minutes with very little shots landed.
