    Jones vs Tyson

    if it goes past 5, I got Roy. Roy must not play the ropes, don't rely too much on the high guard defense because Mike will **** his body up, and Mike is too strong, he will penetrate Roys high guard. Roy needs to use his legs and use his jab and TRY to keep Mike on the outside. Can Roy still use his legs?

    Mike hasn't fought since 2005. Roy fought in 2018.

    It's an exhibition with big gloves, head gear, and no judges.

    It's going to be somewhere between patty cake and light sparring.

        Tyson is going to hurt him badly. RJJ legs are gone, and he won't be able to trade with Tyson. His chin was always borderline suspect, even in his prime. Tyson actually looks explosive right now, and looks well conditioned.

          The former heavyweight champions will wear headgear, according to Tyson, and 12-ounce gloves. Heavyweights wear 10-ounce gloves in official professional boxing matches.

          Andy Foster, the executive director of the California State Athletic Commission, has emphasized to BoxingScene.com and other outlets that Tyson-Jones shouldn’t be promoted as anything resembling a legitimate boxing match. Foster has assured that the 54-year-old Tyson and the 51-year-old Jones will “move around” with each other, despite what Tyson and Jones have stated during numerous interviews since Thursday.
          Triller apparently agreed to pay an enormous amount of money for the exclusive streaming rights to the Mike Tyson-Roy Jones Jr. boxing exhibition. CNBC reported in a story posted to its website that owners of the emerging music sharing platform paid “north of $50 million” for the brand awareness they hope to gain by streaming Tyson-Jones on pay-per-view. Triller is considered competition for TikTok and other social media platforms, but Tyson-Jones will be the first live sporting event it offers on pay-per-view.

              I worry about RJJ's size...... Dr Beau Hightower went in and cracked him recently..... he looked like a Light-Heavy. Tyson will be too big for him IMO.

                Jones said he and tyson are both getting a percentage of the profits so this is not for charity. i am glad they are making money. I think Jones has a good chance to win. He might get KOed early but his chances of winning go up with each passing round in my opinion.

                  I thought I heard something about a "no KO" clause in their contract....not sure if I heard right though
