And Roy Jones LITERALLY FIGHT A FAN AND COUNTED IT ON HIS RECORD!!!Didn't Floyd pad his record fighting an exhibition with Conor McGregor who never boxed in his life under boxing rules?
And didn't Floyd, coming in about 150 lbs., fight a 130 lb. kickboxer who never boxed in his life under boxing rules? Took advantage of him and put him to sleep?
Ali Literally fought a football player in an exhibition...this is nothing new..Comment

These sideshows when they involve the really big names ALWAYS help because they bring casuals and crossover to another crowd, they bring a new guy into the potential marketplace that wasnt there before, these events always get a lot of publicity and the only bad is the boxing fan that has no business sense at all, everybody knows the difference in these and real boxing.
Only the biggest names can pull these deals off and they get loads of publicity, if you cant tell the difference between the real boxing matches and these big name guys cashing in on their names thats on you, not the sport of boxing.Comment

It goes 1 of 2 days...1 they go in there with a game plan to "spar", then somebody gets pissed of and then its on like hell. 2 they play pitty pat for the rounds and catch a draw. Now will I watch, most effin right I will. LolI'm obviously more anti-that fight since I think both are in their 50s & RJJ has had a few nasty KOs. But fook it, they wanna fight + casual fans will watch & pay so it'll be one of the biggest fights of the year.
No clue what it'll look like as a fight or who wins. Kinda feel like it'll be a lot more chill & easy going then it's being hyped as currently so if any official decision is rendered it's likely to be a draw or close decision among two guys not trying to kill each other. Tyson ain't THAT guy anymore despite him being able to get into character verbally still & even looking the part in short training clips.
How do you view that one?Comment
