🥊[Boxing] Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Junior [PPV on Nov. 28]

[carlisle1]

I am waiting this fight until it moves this would be really a great fight I've seen how Mike Tyson practices on video clips on youtube and I could really tell he still can punch real hard that would knock out any boxers if managed to hit and I think this would be risky for both boxers due to their age let's hope that things will go well on their fight.

57-12 in favor of Tyson, there are poster who voted for Jones as well but the video that we saw says Tyson still has it, unfortunately this is just a short fight so I don't expect a knock down here, hopefully people will enjoy but I'm glad this fight has a lot of undercards.

But remember that Jones ha a Power punch also and in any chance he can Make a strong Hit and an make Tyson fell to the floor.

Though i also voted for Tyson here as I am a fan since my childhood.

I even watch replays of His fights until now as i am in my rightful age.

Both are great fighters, no doubt about that, but speaking of chances, sportsbook knows better.
As we can see on the betting line, though Tyson was the favorite which is expected, but he was not heavily favored IMO.

At 1st I thought this was just a big joke because these men are 100 years old combined ages of them.

The person in charge of this match better make sure he has medical staff on site ready to attend to these old men if something dangerous will happen.

It is less then 1 month to go and I will be making a small play on Roy Jones Junior.

Thank you for the link so it seems the fight will finally take place in Los Angeles and will not be postponed another time : that's a big news!
Because we are now waiting it since the beginning of september...   (It was initially scheduled for September 12)

Looks like that this fight will be postpone to a later date this year.

Seems like the marketing strategy of both fighters did not work as the interest of boxing fans to watch this fight is low.

This doesn't look like a real fight to me at all, I know many people are excited and there is also a lot of people who think like me as well, all I care about is being able to wager on this or not.

First of all Mike Tyson wasn't even that amazing anymore the moment he retired, he was obviously still decent but he wasn't all that great yet he fought against amazing and best so it was understandable that he wasn't looking like the boxer we knew him to be, Roy is not that he is older and he retired as well but he retired very recently, yet I believe he won't be that great neither.

At the end of the day, neither of the boxers have the stamina anymore, they could have the technique or anything else they want, they can practice too, but around second round they will both be gassed and turn it into just a show and nobody will get hurt.

There are both heavyweight champions, in this category every hit hurts. I think nobody on the earth would be quiet to receive a punch from Tyson.
In his career he has won almost all his fights by KO.
So I think there will be fear in the heart of each other and the fight could be interesting.

You said it right, this is an exhibition fight, that means it's not real, they just fight to give us an entertainment and for them to raise funds, if you don't like to see a fight like this, this is not for you, and you don't need to spend money for this.

I believe Mike Tyson still have the power pucnhes but hes getting older now so I doubt about it. Besides, he had too made some losses like seen in the figures between the two boxers. I mat may be a fan of Mike Tyson but this time maybe I will go for Jones Junior. Both had experience in boxing and both do good in records of winning by knockouts. Anyway, my bet could change depending on a sneak peak of Mike Tyson training to see how could he had change or maybe even improve after a while that he has stop boxing.

We can't expect the same Mike Tyson, if you are talking about his power, then you gotta respect the power of Roy Jones Junior his opponent as he has a monster record on KO as well. It's going to be fun but we are not seeing a young fighters here, and the reason they lowered the minutes in this game because they know their stamina is not like they are young.

At 1st I thought this was just a big joke because these men are 100 years old combined ages of them.

Even i was amused when the videos of Mike Tyson started coming out sparring and the amount of hype it was able to garner from all the fight fans was huge. Both were elite fighters and anyone who is amateur and young cannot stand a chance against them even at this advanced age.
They are not fighting any young fighters but it is a veterans battle.

The person in charge of this match better make sure he has medical staff on site ready to attend to these old men if something dangerous will happen.

I think the fight is recognized by WBC and they will be having the best medical staff possible, may be they are fighting for the veterans WBC belt  .

It is less then 1 month to go and I will be making a small play on Roy Jones Junior.

Roy Jones Junior last fought in 2018 and i know his body is banged up while Tyson last fought in 2005, i will watch this fight as a fan .
The sparring of Tyson looked good but in a fight situation i am expecting him to gas out faster as he was abusing his body for a very long time but who knows i know he still punches hard and they are using 12 inch gloves and whether Roy Jones have the same reflexes is not known until i see some of his recent sparring sessions.

Obviously, this is just an exhibition match and I don't think that they have real intention of putting a hurt to each other. Maybe both of them are just hyping the match so that it can raised a lot of money. The minutes per round has been reduced, and I'm sure that at any boxing event, there is a doctor and medical staff task to attend and if everything else false, then an ambulance is waiting to get them to the nearest hospital for exhaustion, worst case scenario.

So Holyfield backed out from his similarly hyped fight with Mike, right?

That's what I expected since Evander is no one's fool as you wouldn't really believe Tyson's words that he is a different person now (and neither is Holyfield, for the record). So Mike found another victim, not quite of his league but still. What's next or rather who's next once Jones wisely bows out at the last moment? Is he going to fight Floyd Mayweather then or what?

Evander Holyfield did not back out of the fight against Mike Tyson, when Mike Tyson announced that he is returning to box again Holyfield threw his hat but Mike Tyson refused to fight him because they are friends after their boxing career and Mike cannot fight friends and so is the reason Mike opted for Roy Jones Junior as it will be a much fancied fight for the fans .

He's older now indeed but looking with his video trainings it seems that he really preparing for this fight, maybe not that power
punch anymore just like before but when the conditions is there he still dangerous.

But in terms of belt under their names they are really have equal and they both great from their primes. We can tell who's going
to be on top when the fight start and how it will ends up.

But still not enough comparing to What mike Tyson achieved right?so basically Mike Tyson is still the favorite in this Bout.
But of course each boxer has his own power and timing,they can bring down opponent in single punch so better both of them will
use distance and alertness.

It's going to be fun but we are not seeing a young fighters here, and the reason they lowered the minutes in this game because they know their stamina is not like they are young.

Yups that's the reason why the round is shorten and also consider the Idea that these fighters will do their best to knockout each others in a shortest time they can make.

I'm curious if you seriously believe this stuff

I mean, best friends forever and that kind of thing? Seriously? Tyson was kinda friends with Lennox too when they were juniors, and what do you think it ended up with? So-called "friendship" didn't prevent him from biting (again) Lennox at the press conference in 2002 before Lewis beat the shit out of him

Tyson is the same old Mike we always knew and even liked, in a way, though he is a little rusty now. Regardless, I think he should be looking in the UFC corner this time around instead of selling us some pee-wee boxing bullshit if he wants to put up a good show and draw in some handsome money

[davinchi]

~snipped

I disagree HEAVILY about young fighters have no chance against them. In fact Mike Tyson wasn't even good enough to continue the time he retired FIFTEEN YEARS AGO so he retired, young and athletic is something you can't regain, you can be the best boxer in the entire world with your technique and skills and talent but when your body fails to do what you want to do and when your punches are not as strong and as fast as it used to be and even others punches hurt you even more than it used to, that is just your body.

Your mind could still be awesome but it won't help you at all, it is going to be hard for you to fight. Hence why I think regular people have no chance against them but when we are talking about young fighters in the top 10 ranks, they could destroy Tyson and Roy Jones together at the same time.

A match that's been set for these two are not like the other matches that we used to watch which is thrilling and exciting because we all know that they're going to give their full.

This might be the cause of other exhibition matches that earned a lot of money so, they've decided to do this because fans are excited on this.

Even in real fights they still do it for money, everything is for money but there's a difference between a real fight and an exhibition fight, real fight gives intense action where viewers really enjoy while exhibition fight is more on hype only on pre fight to sell a ticket or PPV whatsoever.
