    Nov 28 - Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr
    Dec 5 - Tyson Fury vs unnamed opponent
    Dec 12 - Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev

    Feels like the 90s again.

    2 absolute jokes of fights and one fight that doesn't even have 2 fighters committed yet. If you were around before klitschko and you think this feels exciting you must have amnesia

    Exactly.

    It is like people cheering because instead of fighting Foreman, Frazier or Norton again, Ali has decided to fight Jean Pierre Coopman instead. Awesome.

    Didn't realize Pulev is actually 40. Wow. I wonder if his awful Ruiz jab-n-grab impression has aged gracefully? Haven't seen him since he got obliterated by V.K.

    That's because most of these guys are old and from the 90s.

    We're living in a golden age, people! :ibutt

    Although, weird as it might sound, I think even current Pulev is a better opponent as all Wilder's WBC fights except Fury and Ortiz.
