That's right, ATS. Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr in 5 days on 11/28/2020! I've been waiting for this fight for a while. An 8 round exhibition fight between 2 former heavyweight champs!


I think Tyson will will. Who you got, ATS?



I gotta admit that I wasn't that excited for this fight at first, however, as the fight gets closer I'm getting moer and more excited.

I feel torn, I really like the Mike Tyson of today ... enlightened. But I saw his amazing destruction of heavyweights back in the day. I think he is 54 and he just can't be the same guy ... I keep thinking that if I watch him today it will somehow tarnish the warrior I saw back in the 80s.

All that said it's exciting ... he brings that like nobody else. It will be exciting but I'm not expecting to see the same guy in the ring.

I've watched all the videos of him training and its scary boy.

# you are getting me pumped...

Mike Tyson seems crazy af lately lol

I think it'll be a good fight, but whats this # ?


Due to the nature of an exhibition fight, it has been declared to not allow knockouts due to them being too dangerous, with the clash instead being described as a 'heavy sparring' session.


I guess once your so old you shouldn't be getting hit in the head at all eh

Well, just 6 months ago the man struggled to rip a cotton T-shirt off of himself.

Hope he's been training very hard because Roy is just a bit tougher than a $12 shirt.

The wind from a Tyson hook was enough to knockout Bruce Seldon years ago. I think "heavy sparring" probably is code for "both parties' payments negotiated long before the 'fight' begins"

Mike Tyson is going to punch holes in him.

Seeing what Aussie boxer Danny green did to Jones 11 years ago in just the first round I just don't see him winning against Iron Mike.

1st round KO victory to Tyson.

Whaaaaaaaaat!? Yawn. In that case I revise my prediction to a TKO win by Tyson. Ref stops it in round 3/4

Something along the lines of 'no dunks but good fundamentals'

Tyson looks hungry to prove himself. I don't think Roy Jones will last long. I do however, expect him to put up a good fight. We shall see.

Roy is a warrior but i've seen a few interviews... he looks a little worried... but who wouldn't be

He actually shouldn't be fighting tyson, hes out of his weight class, but he won the belt as a heavy weight so he can definitely hold his own

Should be a good fight... Just pisses me off that they reduced the round time to two mins

Just because they're old doesn't make them women ffs...

Honestly I think they are just trying to get a little cash injection and laugh to the bank.

It's only an exhibition, 2 minute rounds I heard, "no knockouts", (I guess the ref will just beat them both up if they start throwing bombs? Lol)

Not like a real prizefight when they were in their primes. People might not know Roy kept fighting until not too long ago, obviously not at the level of 25 years ago. If it were a real fight here's the key I think. Roy has been KO'd multiple times. Like completely asleep KO'd. After his speed and reflexes faded he got KOd left and right it was sad.

Tyson has been beat up sure. Maybe even a KO as the rules state (vs Lennox Lewis comes to mind). But never had Tyson been completely slept where you are out and snoring. Tyson fought heavyweights like holyfield, Lennox lewis, Larry holmes...lost to the first 2 but wasn't slept.

I think if Tyson lands clean Roy is going out. But I'm getting the feeling it won't be that drastic.

I think it’s cause he came off the weed. He seemed so much more at peace when was smoking everyday; now he gets erections thinking about punching people in the face.

I’m not a scientist but there may be some correlation there.
