That post fight interview was rough. They could hardly breathe still. Props for doing it though

Roy said Tyson was the peak prior to the fight, but I definitely see him jumping back in.

Legends only about to take off

For Bhop....

Yea, Mike is unintentionally funny alot.

I think it’s intentional. It’s no surprise that he got into comedy after he retired. He’s naturally funny. Good timing. His cartoon was fantastic.

Well said, and hope your dogs are doing well.

Thanks...the white one is thriving but the one in my avi will have passed a year ago Wednesday but will live on in memory forever.

Pretty good fight.

I remember reading an in-depth article about Roy at the end of his career and it mentioned that he had to stop doing road work because his knees were so bad.. He basically used to run on bad dirty roads when he was younger which did him no favors.

He should still be able do the stationary bike and elliptical machine though. I saw a video before this fight was agreed on and he talked about the possibility of it coming off with his chiropractor and he listed all the things that were wrong with him. His body is destroyed and frankly it's amazing he could do what he did tonight considering. But if he gained on his cardio and dropped 10-15 lbs he could do much better at this exhibition thing. Old Roy still needs money and this is God-sent for him.

GREAT decision by the judges !!


considering the fact that both guys are nearly 60yo... considering the fact that it was a exhibition... and considering the fact that neither of them should even be thinking about fighting


nice job !

Agreed. Hopefully he takes advantage of the opportunity. Roy legs were the first thing to go so I'm still wondering how much he would engage with increased stamina but the scary KO history.

I'm fine as long as none of them got hurt.

You know something just occurred to me now that you mention about his knees. I don't know if you remember during the promo clip that short scene with Roy doing legs extensions and I thought to myself...man those are bad for the knees and most gyms have removed those machines today. I thought to myself..."why is he doing those"?
