Unbelievable this circus act is getting ANY coverage ...very sad.

I’m excited for the fight. Awesome Tyson is doing this and what a perfect dance partner to pick with RJJ!

[blowblow]

that should be it.. allow both fighters to go all out.. who the hell would want to watch a lame boxing match. like jorge arce vs castillo. all i saw was slapping each other and that's no more than the WWE actions. you pay to get scammed.

Yeah,its actually still an exhibition, but maybe it's not selling quite the way they expected.Its not a fight ,and nobody is getting knocked out.Bet on the draw lol

If it was anyone else other than Tyson, you would just bypass this entire exhibition. But Tyson is the wildcard and everyone knows it. Will he treat this fight as an exhibition and if he doesn’t, Roy will retaliate to try to protect himself. That’s why people are on the fence with this one. Will it be a glorified sparing match or will Tyson flip a switch and go crazy. All know is it will be a sportssurge

I mean, Arum has been doing it for ages.

And remember when Dana basically overrode CSAC when Bones Jones failed the test, to the point they caved and created a loophole for him that basically exempts him from punishment?

I don't really follow MMA and didn't know that about Jones.
If that's what happened (which doesn't surprise me at all) then it's disgraceful and shows that the promoters don't care about ped use.
Thanks.

Draw would be a good bet on this fight if you find a bookie taking bets. Very likely they just pitter pat their way through it.
