Report in one of yesterday's papers stated that these two venerable gentlemen will be meeting for a third time sometime during this year. Presumably it'll be another exhibition such as the one Mike had with Roy Jones recently. What does everyone think about this ? Even though it's only an exhibition,I wish that these old boys would leave well alone. Apparently big......big bucks will be made out of the promotion. If this is true,there are a lot of gullible folks around.
Gosh, I actually like this its just surreal to see these old legends parading around the ring in the modern age regardless of there form i eat it up.
I see where you're coming from. There is a car crash appeal to this sort of thing,is n't there ? We'll watch them in spite of knowing it's a load of bull****. - Will Mike Tyson bite a chunk out of Evander Holyfield's pension book ? Or will Evander exact revenge by doing the same to Mike's ?
Will be interesting. Evander is always in shape. Mike dominated against Jones, regardless of those BS scores
This is so true,Steve. But too many WILL take it seriously and there's a danger that Mike and Evander will look rather silly. I hope the organisers don't make the distance any further than eight rounds. The two men will be so tired they'll be propping each other up.
It's legal, and these guys can make some money. I say they can go for it. I won't pay to see it, but I won't badmouth the idea either. If people would pay me anywhere near what they'll get for this, to move around the ring with somebody, I'd do it, and I'm way older than these guys are. Lol.
There is a difference between gullible and those who crave the nostalgia of yesteryear. Keep in mind this is neither original nor unprecedented; Jack Johnson once fought former foe Joe Jeannette in a exhibition in 1945 when he was well into his 60s. If there is money to be made and people are willing to see why not? I for one will tune in.
