Mike Tyson was just a shell of the former legendary fighter he was in the late 1980s which is why Jones wanted to fight him, Tyson had absolutely nothing left at that stage other than his name and it showed in his performances against Williams, Lewis & McBride.

Jones wouldn't even contemplate getting in there with an old Buster Douglas in the late-90's. What does that tell you?
Roy & I have the same prediction --- Tyson, brutally.

Originally posted by CarlosG815 View PostJones could have ended the fight by TKO. Mike would quit ala Duran vs Leonard at that point in his career. 2000, Mike may have knocked him out. 02-03 Mike stands no chance at beating a guy with Jones athleticism.
