    Both guys get a belt & the fight was declared a draw ... I thought that stuff was for millennials.

    these are supposed to be old school hard rocks.

    bah.

    Snoop's performance before the fight was a definite highlight. Man how'd he keep that blunt goin the whole time? He was still puffin on that thing at the end.

    Yeah but no one should of bet it. It was way too unpredictable on what they were going to do. It seemed like Tyson did not want to hurt Jones. I mean to my eyes it looked like Tyson still had his handspeed but his timing was definitely off. Still I am sure if he wanted to, Tyson could have hurt Roy.

    I want to say to all the younger folks on here that didn't have the pleasure of seeing both these gentlemen wreak havoc in their primes....when it comes to boxing, newer isn't always better... In fact, seeing Tyson, after all this time, still being Tyson, is nothing short of inspiring.
    Sure, it was a set up exhibition, but one cannot deny the obvious effort Mike put into it and I applaud him for it.

    Tyson looked pretty good to be honest. Way better than I thought he would.

    Yeah say what you want about this, but Mike looked good. I mean he looked way better 15+ years later than how lackluster he looked vs McBride.

    Yeah he didn't seem to care at all. They asked If he wanted to fight for a title and he said this is bigger than winning titles. Maybe he really is about the charity.

    Tyson's hands today are faster than Joyce's.

    Tyson looked great when he had his head moving. Whenever he came straight in he couldn't land much but when he has his head moving he'd always land some body shots or left hook upstairs.

    I wish Tyson worked behind the jab more. There was one jab Tyson landed on RJJ that looked great.

    All things considered I thought both looked great.

    Roy had a great gameplan that got him through the fight. taking those blows to the ribs rather then the chin was key

    Joyce would knock Tyson out in the first round.
