I’m so excited for this fight. I’m personally a Tyson fan and he’s became one of my favorite people after watching his podcast and him being a guess on other podcast. RJ is a real competitor and great boxer. I’m just going with Tyson. What do y’all think? And who do you think will win?

I used to love Roy Jones jnr bouts. He always had that swagger. I’ve got some old dvds that were made like 15 years ago. Burnt from old vhs footage including his Olympic fights. Both fighters were so dominant. Hope the fight is good.

I was excited to watch the fight but not anymore 
Quote:
The 'no knockout' rule for Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr. is just one of several alterations made to the rules for the duo's clash this weekend.
As Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. make their final preparations for their pay-per-view event this weekend, the rules for their fight are starting to be made clear.
Both fighters have come out of retirement to make the November 28 fight, and with Jones aged 51 and Tyson 54, there are some unusual rules that have been put in place for the exhibition fight.
While the match-up will be recognizable to even casual observers, there are some key differences compared to a standard competitive bout. What are the rules for Tyson vs. Jones?
The California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) has ruled that instead of a regular 12 rounds, the pair will compete over just eight rounds. Those rounds will be only two minutes long, compared to the standard three minutes each.
The reduced time spent in the ring is partly due to both fighters refusing to use headguards, meaning the CSAC put in the extra restriction.
If either fighter suffers a cut, then the fight will be stopped, and no knockouts are allowed.
To further reduce the damage done to both men, fighters will be required to wear 12-ounce gloves to soften the blows exchanged.
Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr exhibition fight reported rules:
Eight, Two-Minute Rounds Bigger, 12oz Gloves No Headguards No Knockouts Fight Stopped If There's A Cut No Official Judges Or Winner WBC Have Ex-Fighters Judging (Their Scores Are Unofficial)
Outside of the ring, there will be no judges to score the fight, but instead, the World Boxing Council will host Christy Martin, Vinny Pazienza and Chad Dawson viewing remotely to decide the fight result.
No official winner will be recorded but the fighter picked by the judges will win a ‘Frontline Battle Belt’ commissioned for the event.
California State Athletic Commission executive director Andy Forster confirmed: "Tyson and Jones Jr. won't be wearing headgear for the fight.
"They'll be lacing up 12-ounce gloves and there won't be any judges present at the fight to score the action.
"So, technically, there won't be a winner unless a knockout somehow occurs, or either fighter is deemed unfit to continue.
"They can move around and make some money, but I told them if you get cut, it's over."

Haha.. glad I found this forum/ thread!
I am extremely excited for the tyson/ jones fight not to mention jake paul being bent over at the knee and getting spanked like the little bitch he is. If Jake paul does when, it's staged.

It was a damn good fight. Leaving it as a draw is garbage though.

Utter trash, complete moneygrab. Tyson must be out of money, he markets himself as a cannabis entrepreneur, not sure why he'd do this other than money.
After the first round neither guy had legs, constant clinching, Tyson went for it but had no juice after the first 3 rounds.

Mike got his payday. Like always. Far less of course. A draw. Amusing.

You guys forget.. 50+... That's old... They did good for 50+. I thought it was alright considering the 2 fighters.
Both men went in the ring with the intention of putting on a show and they did just that. Again, I am only disappointed in the decision. Even though this bout was strictly for charity, an actual winner should have been declared. For fun. People paid good money. The majority paid good money to see tyson go in there and dominate which he did.
There is talk about a second fight between the 2. That's cool and all, but they sure as hell won't bring in the same payout as this last fight. The only way I see that happening is if they publicly announce that all limitations are lifted and I really don't see that happening.
