Boxing

[TippEverton]

Tonight's fight between Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones it is going to be interesting one given their age. Wonder which of these boxing legends will do better in the ring

Don't waste your time watching it, it's two great fighters being wheeled out for a pay day.

It's like a dream match up, if someone had a time machine, but as of yet I don't think anyone does.

You are probably right. I already misspent my time this morning watching Everton.

I'm debating whether to watch it or not, it's a bit like car crash TV. You shouldn't watch the carnage but you can't look away...

Jones having recently fought to a standard should be a little bit less ring rusty. If it's true they can't go for the knockout then that takes away a lot of Iron Mike's threat.

The promoters have said they can go for the knockout.

Still don't think it will be good but that makes it a bit more interesting.

I am also debating it, wonder if I should make better use of my time with a movie.

I agree that Jones may have the upper hand given he was still fighting as recently as 2018 but Tyson has that iron fist, and nice bite lol so you can't never underestimate him

Didn't we all, we're at this with years, try and stick with it.

But I'd go for the movie instead of this farcical bout tonight.

I admire the profound love and passion of Everton fans towards a team that can bring so much pain. Good thing.as resilient as you all

I am listening to your advise. A movie it is. Good night!

Yes wise choice. And I think I will go to bed. If I wake up and they say it's the best fight ever then I can always watch it then. Who wins is irrelevant really as there is nothing ridding on it, so I won't feel like I have missed out if I read the result it first.

Better (for me at least) than staying up and seeing it play out exactly what it is...an old man exhibition.

Can't believe you're not even going to stay up for Youtube vs Basketball, the true main event of the evening

Roy Jones looks spent after 1 round, it's quite uncomfortable viewing watching two 50 year olds go at it tbh.

This ended up having quite a spectacular outcome to be fair despite being a complete trainwreck.

Based on what happened perhaps this is where it is at. Get rid of the professionals and get "celebs" to go at it. Maximum 3 fights each so they don't get too good.

It seems we both made the wise choice.

My husband ended up watching it and he said it was a weird fight. He did say Tyson did much better than Jones but at the end it was a tie. I had the feeling that was going to happen not to hurt either of their ego

It was a brutal knockout

You could sense it was going to be a draw early on as one of the judges went hard for Jones when he clearly wasn't winning rounds and one was keeping it pretty close all the way through the fight.

Not a huge surprise in an exhibition like this. Gives them something to market off if they decide to do it again which Tyson said he wants to do.

First, I must say that I'm glad you didn't erase your reply like other times

I actually could sense it was going to be a draw from the very beginning the match was planned. It just would had been too much for the ego of two legends to have chosen one winner.

I can see Tyson giving it another try, he seem he has gotten fit enough to give have another fight. I also thought it was quite clever of him to convince the planners to leave cannabis out of the anti doping checks. About time this lovely plant is not look as a drug but as a medicinal herb.

Doesn't sound good for Dubois. Clearly made the right decision to get out of there. His corner probably should have done it earlier.
