After Mike knocks out Roy no one is going to be in a rush to fight him knowing he’s not going to get less sharper next time . Mike has a good 2 years to be the best version he can at his age which is still a hard reminder for some people who don’t get it ,that Mike currently looks better then 90% of the division now as long as he’s focused if we ask Fury why he wanted more money to fight Mike we know the answer would be risk of getting knocked out because he said it already .

Do you not realize how ridiculous you sound?
You are embarrassing both yourself AND Hugh Beaumont.
I don't understand how you can logically conclude that
"Mike currently looks better then 90% of the division now".
Are you basing that on the fleeting training footage that
Mike released to advertise his "comeback"? Mike proved that he was shot 15-years-ago when he was
embarrassingly stopped by forgettable fringe contenders.
In fact, the last time we saw Mike in a fight, he QUIT.
Have you forgotten that he quit on his stool against a
slow, lumbering oaf?
The guys who Mike was losing to would not be top-10
contenders today. Not by a long shot.

Now, after 15-years of chilling and smoking weed, at 55-years-old, you think Mike Tyson has somehow physically
rejuvenated himself???
How high ARE you??? Stop smoking and watching those
35-year old videos of Mike Tyson in the 1980's!!!
You're losing your mind. There is no fountain of youth.
Mike Tyson has no picture of Dorian Gray to age for him.
You cannot point to a single example of a fighter who
retired in their late 30's because they were physically shot,
and then made a successful comeback years later.

No, George Foreman did not retire because he was shot,
and when he DID comeback, he was roughly the same age
as Tyson was when he retired. Even though he was not
yet 40, George's comeback was not immediately successful
and he lost in his first two attempts to win a world title.
Middle-aged George had trouble competing with top guys
in the division, and he was the larger man against them.
Seniors discount-aged Mike Tyson does not have the luxury
of being bigger than ANYONE in the top-10 today.

Believing Mike Tyson can beat top guys today, that's just
a fanciful imagination running wild, but wanting to actually
see Mike versus a current contender is sadistic, barbaric,
and it boarders on elder abuse.

tyson and jones could refuse the belt but they choose not too so why do u care ?

I have my reasons but I don't care enough to tell you why haha

[LoadedWraps]

Now, they have my attention....

I still have Tyson by early to mid round stoppage in a barn burner, and just hope Jack doesn't end his night with a gaping wet vagine on his forehead again. That was tough to watch, what a warrior.

Scoring, huh?

Well LoadedWraps, looks like some suit disagreed with you after backlash from the real fans who want outcomes.

Glad to see common sense prevail; NOW it's worth paying for.

Come on man, don't walk it back

What do you need a scorecard for if the fight doesn't go on record? Are you that simple?

What value does it bring? Score the fight yourself, for yourself. I'm done with this conversation, go away with your ******ity and childish takes.

[LoadedWraps]

I think you misunderstood what I meant there.

I meant a boxing match can be scored by the audience whether there are official judges or not.

Offical scoring is of course better, my point in that post was that, at least for me, the omission of official scoring wasn't ruining the fight for me.

My argument this whole time is that two true fighters don't care if you label it a sparring session, exhibition, or championship fight, a competitor is going to compete in the heat of the moment, and as a true fight fan, I'll eat it up. I get fired up over a local gym war, I'm supposed to be not fired up over Tyson fighting RJJ because of minor details like judges, headgear, labels? Nope, a fight is a fight is a fight.

WBC Senior Belt up for grabs. This could be a curse that keeps on making old man fights into the future.
