Comments Thread For: Roy Jones Angered Over Delay in Mike Tyson Fight, Threatens Withdrawal

[theface07]

Like I said, it should have just been Briggs. Briggs would happily wait and run up on Tyson while he's eating. #LETSGOCHAMP

Have you seen Briggs' last few fights? It's like he's fighting underwater. Either he KOs Mike in the first two rounds, Mike KOs him in the first two rounds or Briggs and Mike hit their lung capacity and need to be given oxygen before they pass out from a lack of air.

What other stuff is Roy Jones doing? Roy Jones needs to follow through with the fight.

I would of thought the postponement would help Roy Jones Junior prepare more adequately.

Pathetic with the threats of withdrawal.

Nothing pathetic about it at all. It's not a real fight anyways but they had a date and they should've stuck to it. They don't even have a reasonable excuse for the delay. Roy has been training and is ready for that date. The real reason for the delay is Mike probably realizes he's sucking dirty pond water after a couple of minutes of sparring and needs to stop smoking weed for a couple of months.

Exactly. Roy doesn’t have sh—t else going on. Unless he was offered a commentator gig somewhere

Your talking to Roy on a regular basis right? The fuc*k do you know what else Roy has going on? He's a HOF'er. He could be lending his name to all kinds of projects. You, on the other hand, definitely aren't doing fuc*k all.

The delay should help Roy Jones Junior, as the original date in my opinion? Was too short notice for him to prepare etc

Since the event has gotten larger, I think the pressure is showing on certain people.

Yeah because Mike has definitely been preparing for months smoking copious amounts of dope with random celebrities. HTF is Mike more prepared than Roy right now? Those 30 sec and 1 min clips of Mike throwing power shots has you totally starstuck.

Roy Jones on record has stated 'Back in 2002-2003' he would of beaten Mike Tyson. He has went on record and stated of late? That Mike Tyson has more problems and things to worry about than himself.

I am being respectful of Roy Jones Junior, but in reality? I think he is getting spooked at the prospect of facing Mike Tyson even at 54 years of age 'Tyson is a unknown entity, nobody knows what to expect from him performance wise or condition'.

Follow through for goodness sake, and stop with the pathetic pull out threats.

I think Jones Junior is chatting some nonsense to be honest.

More BS from you. EVERYBODY who isn't a total moron knows what to expect from Mike. He will throw haymakers and hope one of them lands flush. Otherwise, he will gas out quickly. He has no stamina. He hasn't fought for 15 years and quit against a journeyman then. All of a sudden he's going to be a killer again. Yeah ok.

Waaaaay too dangerous of a fight for Mike

Briggs, right now off the bench is better than the bum who KO'd active Mike Tyson 15 years ago ffs

No it fuc*king isn't. Briggs is as shot as Mike. There's a reason why he hasn't fought a live body in years. He gasses after 2 rounds just like Mike will. You're as deluded as the fans who think Mike is "Iron Mike" from 25 years ago. GTFOH with your nonsense.

Just for all of your info, the fight is being delayed to maximize profits. Why is that not obvious? SO if the profits are larger, shouldn't the fighters purses be larger? I mean, we all know Mike is the A side here and is getting a larger cut.

I'm a fan of both, but what makes you think Mike is the A side?

Well, Briggs is an asthmatic. Given that, it's amazing that he made as big a splash as he did in his day.

To those who think Roy is out of line, consider if you have a business and get a lucrative one-time job offer. You put your business on hold and invest time and money preparing for this big money-making event. Now imagine 3.5 weeks before you are to report to work, they call to tell you that your start date has been pushed back 2.5 months.

Sounds like Roy is having second thoughts and he should
