    Yeah that would be prudent, will protect Holyfield's ears and ensure Holyfield doesn't head butt Mike and open a cut. I could see a nice exhibition fight quickly turn into a brawl after one Holyfield headbutt without head gear.

    I’d probably pay to watch Tyson and Holyfield spar. I found the exhibition Saturday pretty entertaining for what it was, nice to see them using their names for a good cause as well, so hope they can continue with it. Seeing Tyson in shape was great as a few years ago he seemed on the slide.

    For better or worse, this morning I ended up watching a recording of Tyson-Jones.

    I was pleasantly surprised, it was poor but by no means embarrassing.

    The standard made me think a little bit of the over-50s men's 100m track world record, it's 10.88 seconds, pretty poor compared with what prime-aged world elite guys can do, but still pretty darned impressive to us couch potatoes.

    So, yeah, after that I wouldn't pay to watch Tyson-Holyfield, but I wouldn't cringe too badly at the thought of it either.
