“There’s no official judges,” Foster said, outlining the rules for this Tyson vs. Jones clash. “The WBC is going to have some guest celebrity judges remotely, not official, not 10-9 [scores], nothing like that. No cumulative score. No winner announced.
“There’s no winner going to be announced,” Foster said. “I do think that’s very important to get out there. The unofficial scores are for entertainment only and that’s done by the WBC remotely. Not by the commission cause the commission didn’t credential those judges because of COVID. It’s for entertainment purposes only. There’s no official winner at the end of this.”
Here are the complete rules for this Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones Jr. exhibition, as revealed by Foster to MMA Fighting:
The bout will take place over 8 rounds at two minutes each.
