    I wonder if this is affiliated with Tysons classics series thing he was trying to get going

    I at first thought this was a mythological fight, but sadly it's on like donkey Kong.

    I mean, is this a case where they're both old enough not to be able to damage each other much? I hope?

    Kind of like the Jeanette / Johnson sparring as old men. Or Mitt Romney "boxing" Holyfield for charity.

    Not so sure about that.

    Big Daddy is rumoured to be in negotiations with Fury's camp for a bout early next year, if Tyson is successful in his defence against the highly touted Aussie, Demsey McKean.

    Apparently, Bowe has activated his 'emeritus clause' and the WBC is looking at making him Fury's mandatory.



    And in other 'unrelated' news...:naughty2:...

    Looking forward to this one tonight. A real boxing Seniors Tour fight.

    Sure, they aren't in their prime, but it should be competitive.

    I've been waiting years to see these two step in the ring and mix it up. Only a few hours left
