    This vid states Tyson will beat Roy in the first round with a pull counter and a right hand, which punch will Tyson finish Roy with, or will Roy last the distance? I feel Mike`s head movement before he punches will be one of the main reasons this fight will be so easy, not just power.

    I don't think the "fight" will even happen.

    If the fight happens its going to be an exhibition with no winner. Neither will try to throw any kind of serious punch, its just the chance to watch two legends on the ring one more time.

    I think Tyson may accidentally rock Jones

    12oz gloves will be like pillows on Roy's thin wrists - he ain't keeping Tyson off

    He couldn`t have hurt Tyson with smaller gloves because Tyson took Ruddock`s punch and Razer was younger and far more powerful than Roy is.

    Roy might make the mistake of trying to clown Mike If he does Mike will take offense & lower the boom. Only needs one Tyson shot on Jones jr chin

    Look how thin Roy's wrists are. He was 112lb at the age Tyson was 200+lb.

    Yeah, but it will not only generate a lot of money for everyone involved, it will draw in all kinds of casuals and maybe stoke interest in the sport overall.

    Plus, it will great entertainment, with glass flying all over that ring!!

    There has to be some kind of way to determine a winner

    Guy in video keeps using the words "pull counter" I don't think that means what he thinks that means.
