      I have a feeling that Tyson is going to ring Roy's bell a few times before he hits the canvas. Roy will have to catch Tyson early with something hard to gain his respect otherwise it will be a short night's work for Tyson.

          So no headgear, I'd have to give the edge to Tyson, even at his age. Power stays there, and Mike can still punch with bad intentions for a few rounds. It depends how seriously they actually take the exhibition, and how big are those gloves.

            Yeah, Jones is in some serious trouble here. I know it's just an exhibition bout but still....Jones is gonna get hurt.

              That was pretty funny, but 100% true.

                Jones has a glass jaw, doesnt have the reflexes he used to and cant fight off the ropes, hates being pressured to the ropes.

                If Tyson can back him into the ropes he can stop roy pretty easily. Tyson still had a good chin and he took a number of punches from heavyweights before being put down, that was when he didnt even give a **** anymore about boxing. Its been 15 years too but if they go hard it really benefits Tyson. IDK if he can just pull his punches, he hurt T Rex in their exhibition because its just his nature to get into it.

                  I hope Mike anhialates him.

                      Hand speed is one thing but I think even more important is the movement. Roy has to be on the move the whole time and not let Mike get his feet planted to deliver power, he needs to keep Mike moving and thinking and while he's doing that counter anything Mike throws and stay off the ropes. Haven't really seen him do any of that in the videos I've seen so far, it has been nothing but flashy combos with stationary feet, I know Roy has battled knee issues in the past and if they're shot and he can't move, it will be a long night.
