Even so, this match was a lot like the Special Olympics, where you get a medal just for showing up.

This was sad thing for boxing. But glad I didn't pay for it. Tyson won every round but o e bit ofcoarse it ends up in a draw. Whole thing was fixed lol. They never threw any hard punches unless it was to the body. This **** needs to stop immediately but if people gonna pay then you cant blame the actors. I'll never pay

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

Give us more Youtubers and Reitree Boxers please!

Mix in a serious fighter or two like Badou Jack with some celebrity boxers and some legends and it can be a fun night from beginning to end.

I only paid $50 for this and I bet it was more entertaining than the Errol Spence vs Danny Garcia card will be for $75. (Nothing against the main event but the rest of that card is trash.)

Overall it was entertaining. With Snoop and the YouTuber and seeing Mike.

This was essentially what was to be expected. Can’t help but notice how much buzz this event generated though. Kind of a sad reality that no current boxing star generates the same type of hype as two fifty plus year olds from the 80s/90s having a glorified sparring session.

Now we see why old fighters can’t be judges!

The chant goes something like, "fossils, fossils, fossils, fossils, fossils..."

You are far too critical of two old superstars coming out of long retirement, during this pandemic to raise money for charity. At very least, it extremely public spirited, sporting and patriotic of them to do this, knowing they are not even shadows of their former ring selves and that people will see the huge change from when they WERE the best in the world......BUT, doing it anyway for deserving causes. All credit to them.

It’s an EXHIBITION kids! For those who don’t know what that means it’s not a fight to be won or lost and it doesn’t count on a record. What did you sprogs expect?

Mike had already gotten himself to some semblance of shape when he announced he would make a go at this (he dropped 100 lbs) whereas Jones only started to train I guess 1/2 assed not that long ago. If Roy just work on his cardio he could make this type of exhibition much more interesting and maybe now he will. He seems to want to do it again and he did make himself a $million for 16 minutes. He had his moments tonight but had no cardio. He just needs to run and stick to it...everything else is fine.

Tyson made $10 tonight...it's nice to see him in a much better situation in life these days.
