      Everyone, including the participants are referring tot this as a FIGHT. It's NOT a fight, it's an EXHIBITION, which is akin to a performance. The first signs of any fight , the ref will step in, and the second or third time, he may call it off. That people could get any satisfaction from 54 and 58 year old former pugilists trying to kill one another is sickening.

      Holyfield comes across as being fulsome and self-greasing, with his The Lord this and the Lord that. Tyson was aggravated beyond control from the dozens of head butts that the ref did NOTHING to prevent. I saw it myself. Holyfeld was winning the fight with his head.

      Judah may just be touting it up for PR purposes.

        Mr. Holyfield and I say this in a loving way 4 U and your family

        all the money in the world can't fix bad health nor brain damage. I would think that you took time to reflect on just a couple of your 1984 team mates and those alternates like Ricky Womack, Pernell Whitaker, Meldrick Taylor, Steve McCrory etc.

          The Mike Tyson comeback tour could have a familiar foe. Former archnemesis and two-time conqueror Evander Holyfield appears to be next in line to face Tyson in an exhibition match. Tyson, 54, and Holyfield 58, have been in ongoing discussions for a third fight dating back to last year when Tyson returned from retirement to face Roy Jones Jr. in an eight-round exhibition. The event yielded around 1.6 million PPV buys, and $80 million for Triller.

          Most of AJs opponents are similar age to Mike Tyson. So why not...

            If they're going to fight, it must not be an exhibition, even at their age. Tyson looked in remarkable shape in the exhibition against Jones, and you could see he took it easy on Roy.

            It's a pity the bites happened in 1997, the rematch was heating up.

            But yes, it looked like Holyfield was going to win that one as well, with a great strategy of backing up Tyson.

                  Not to be a jerk but doesn't Holyfield slur his speeches a lot?? He clearly shouldn't keep getting punched in the head. Especially at his age. And I've seen NO videos or heard of him even in trying to train?

                      Sad state of boxing. The current crop gotta look in the mirror and blame themselves for this charade. Boxing has been long looking for continuous feed of marquee fights and the associated storylines but instead all the divas are taking garbage fights and taking zero risks. Imagine these has-beens using this moment of shine of these young boxers to make up for the poor personal and financial decisions they ve made with all the hundreds of millions they 've earned. Boxing essentially is now belongs to youtubers and all these has beens. Smh for this current crop of fighters.
