Roy Jones Would Accept Offer To Face Mike Tyson in Exhibition Fight

Interesting bit from the article:

In a past interview, former two division champion Andre Ward had claimed that Jones rejected an offer of $40 million to fight Tyson in 2003.

 

It's official. Roy put the poster on IG. @royjonesjrboxing

September 12th in Cali.

 

This should have indeed happened in 2003 instead

 

LMFAO There is an UNDER CARD.

Nate Robinson (Former NBA Player) vs Jake Paul (Youtube cunt)

 

Jesus...

 

ugh

 

Brilliant.

This, and the forthcoming ´Legends League´ is the best thing for boxing in a LONG time!

 

Embarassing

 

The casuals are gonna be very disappointed, because they're expecting some violent KO. They're so dumb they're probably expecting the 88 Tyson.

Neither guy will go all out. Mike said yesterday that he "only knows one way to fight," but I think he's just selling it.

He won't try to seriously hurt Roy. And Roy probably CAN'T seriously hurt Mike.

 

Fixed

 

Let´s talk about the elephant in the room and that is...Mike will gas out.

 

Better late than never, right?

 

With Post-Tarver Roy you never know. The mildest of shots landed can result in a violent, conscussive knockout, as we’ve seen several times now. No reason to think Mike couldn’t land a shot before he gasses completely.

 

This is gonna be a high profile sparring session. RJ is not getting koed

 

Floyd just cant help himself...what a pathetic little man

 

Floyd ranks the top 5 greatest fighters of all time as:

1. Himself
2. Whitaker
3. Duran
4. Holmes
5. Pryor


Well, two guys on that list have a very good argument as top 5 all time. The other three (including Floyd)... no.

 

I am surprised Floyd said he would name his top 5 and then came up with 5 names. I suspected 7 or 3.

 

I was expecting him to name a top 4.

1. Floyd
2. Joy
3. Mayweather
4. Junior

 

Thats a ridiculous list

 

I figured he'd have the likes of Ottke and Calzaghe. Not these dudes that has the losses and not have cars.

 

Floyd rocks.
Himself, Durán and Pea.

Holmes and Pryor? Nah.

 

I think an argument can be made for pbf to be top 5, but not a very convincing one

 

Tyson gets gassed and quits

 

I know Calzaghe would have made Stafford's top 5.

 

Tyson KO5.

 

50 million for this fight?! Good for them.

The Astonishing Amount Triller Paid To Secure The Streaming Rights For Mike Tyson Vs. Roy Jones Jr

 

I seriously doubt that. Tyson last fought 15 fucking years ago and got stopped by Kevin McBride of all people. No one knows what he can take nowadays. Roy fought and won two fights in 2018 although against crap opposition. The advantage in ringrust will be huge and Roy is still extremely quick for his age and still has some pop.

Tyson looked good for 15 seconds on a social media clip against a heavybag. Congratulations. The idea that Roy couldn't hurt him is ridiculous. Of course we know Mike could hurt Roy since a feather flying the wrong way could do that, but other than that Roy should box his ears off, if they just wanna shoeshine.

 

Anybody wondering if Tyson can go 8 rounds even if it's at leisurely pace?
