    Tyson got robbed in exhibition jones just help looked horrible doing such. Tyson looked good for age i def if wont robbed seeing him doing 1 more vs a holyfield n if not then david haye would sale n be entertaining. You see exhibitions is the old man league its gonna be certified if dlh looks tyson level ok and competent if return. Then we all know pacquiao once he retires. U already have floyd and sergio martinez out there. Yeah. Theres a new old man league 43-57 within 10lbs. Though if de la hoya shows tyson level competency i would like see him exhibition or real match vs the joke chavez jr on cinco de mayo itd sale big 1m plus taking away from canelo may fight date numbers. If fighter aint retired for exhibition then i think a floyd vs amir khan r dlh vs chavez jr should be permitted. Theyd justify huge purses as well

      This card was better than the DAZN card yesterday and the BT Sport card earlier today by miles.

        Mike had a calmness about him that reminded me of the way an older George Foreman composed himself. I wonder how he would do against a heavyweight that doesnt know how to clinch very well. Roy knew how to tie him up and thats what saved him from being knocked out

        Just one more thing...i think Roy should have come in a bit lighter. But for what it was i was impressed. Both of them showed they still have some skills and im thankful no one got hurt.

        It was much better then the fight before it, which was a disgrace to boxing. I also found the presentation to be a disgrace. I expect the trainers to curse but i prefer a more professional and classy presentation. I hope not to ever see Snoop Dogg calling a boxing match again

        Tyson needs to challenge the other Tyson.....Fury for the ring belt.

        And Snoop was refreshing imo, I'd like to see him do more fights, he added comic relief and in some clinchers and fights that aren't exciting, that adds entertainment.

          That was no draw, Roy wanted to part of Mike since the opening bell.

            Tyson would be better off against Wilder then Fury, not that either fight will happen. Wilder only has power but very little skills

              Jones didnt get KO'ed because he saw everything coming but at this age he cant even get below 210lbs without feeling weak and carrying all that weight had him gassed by the 2nd round. Then just tried not to piss Tyson off too much with pitter patter shots.. Mike looked trim, might as well go on a seniors tour.

                Tyson's one of the best, perhaps the Greatest HW but please don't ever do this again.

                    This was an exhibition, so even if Roy got knocked out cold they would've found a way to make it a draw.

                      And that's fine, everyone can choose what to watch and what not to watch you're right with that and they can choose what to do with their money but it should not be associated with pro boxing in any way or with any serious boxing organization, this is a disrespect to true champions, former and current. They're using the name of boxing to entertain the dumbed down general public.
                      Yep. And people wonder why boxing isn't as popular as it should be. It's a joke and the fanbase is a bunch of idiots
