Uh oh

 

Apologies , they changed it , it did say he was making a comeback, then McCall

 

Who said fight will be in the US?

BTW, I will order PPV only if Chris Byrd is on the undercard
Otherwise, not worth $9.95

 

For McCall, is it a case of needing money and/or wanting a milestone, post age 60, victory?

Ollie has a terrific record still in place for never having been KD’d let alone KO’d, including during his time as Mike Tyson’s sparring partner, no less.

I guess if it’s due to him mainly being strapped for cash, the need for same ultimately overrides any legacies.

Going into the Jake Paul fight Mike Tyson made it clear he wasn’t concerned about legacy - rather, it was clearly about the cool 10 million Mike reportedly received - though this fight isn’t anywhere near the stratosphere of that type of money.

 

It's a marble contest. Winner gets extra jello at the retirement home.

 

He just likes to fight.

 

That may well be true as part of the reason as he did fight into advanced age in the first instance but then he gave (forced in part?) the game away for over 5 years before coming back.
