I bet everything I have on Tyson and Jones being older at the end of this fight than when they started it

[CjayC]

Surprisingly entertaining scrap

[Clyde_Style]

Tyson is in better shape and Jones is clinching so much because of it

[CjayC]

That’s the surprise to me. Tyson being in such better condition.

judge rob scores it 80-72 for your winner, kid dynamite, iron mike tyson

That's fair

Roy did almost nothing. Mike advanced and landed something each round

[Clyde_Style]

Pazienza's scorecard is ridiculous

[knickabocker88]

Mike looked really good & he held back. If he wanted to, touch RJJ's jaw he would have.

[robillionaire]

roy was hurt and running for his life the whole fight, no idea how this was called a draw but I guess it's a charity exhibition match so who cares

[Clyde_Style]

A draw? oh brother

[Clyde_Style]

I'm going to go wrestle my blow-up doll to a draw

[robillionaire]

vegas has won again

[knickabocker88]

Roy should go to a hospital.

Dana should go throw the bag at Mike and let him fight tomato cans

Been boxing for over 11 years, I really don't care about the decision like that because this doesn't change the legacy Jones and Tyson left, they are immortalized. I was really impressed with Tyson's stamina. Jones was clinching at every opportunity, but if this was 3 minute rounds, Tyson would of eventually wore Jones out by Round 3-4 because those body shots and just Tyson's presence and his energy in the ring along is tiring to deal with. Imaging taming a bull with your bare hands. Even when Mike doesn't hit Jones, you can see how Tyson leads his weight into Jones to make him work. Tyson was on time with everything he intended. The weird part of all this is that, Tyson seem like he was just fighting at 70%, I know Jones is washed of course....individually Mike impressed me. Maybe I just miss seeing him in the ring because no one carries an aura like him in any sport I've followed.


As for Nate Robinson, he absolutely had no sparring to be fighting like that. I can get 20 guys from my boxing gym in the Bronx right now who can whoop Jake Paul....that was absolutely disgraceful to watch because Jake isn't anything special, he just goes for guys with literally no sparring experience. Reminds me of FouseyTube vs that other habibi from the X who's like 5"2 tall. YouTube personalities should be banned from boxing. This is a stain on the sport. I'm ashamed Nate even wore orange and blue for this. Knicks catch L's even when they're not at the event.

Im just glad no onw got hurt between mike and roy .


Nates team should take total responsibility for this outcome. They trained nate for instagram mit hitting videos and not a fight. Dont blame paul for nates team being a bunch of incompetent yes men.

Hope Nate wasn't planning on being a pro boxer.

Tyson was taking it easy on Roy...lets be honest here lol. If they were to go full 100% on each other, Tyson would have had tore him up easy.


Also Nate was getting him early...But Paul kept stopping him with the clinch. Getting Nate behind the head/ear really messed him up. If it was a MMA fight between Nate and Paul, nate would have probably dominated him.

[MaseInYourFace]

Mike retired kinda early so I think he still has some bullets in the chamber RJJ on the other hand is way passed washed lol.
