    Tyson/jones

    Anyone gonna watch the fight? I can’t wait, I’m a huge Tyson fan. A few years ago he had his one man show and I could have got meet and greet tickets for 350$ each. My wife talked me out of it and I’ve regretted ever since. I doubt I’ll get another chance to meet the champ.

    I'm standing by my initial thoughts. It's gonna be 8 rounds of light sparring.

    Tyson could land some bomb early on that ends it but I just don't think it's gonna be that kind of fight. The less they really get after it, the more it favors Roy.

    My best guess is Roy boxes him around the ring, Tyson chases him to the ropes and they throw at about 40% or so power.

    WBC has appointed some judges to score the fight, but I know Bovada isn't going to accept those scores. Apparently there are some books who will.

    If they aren't going to come out going for the KO, it really leaves the value with Roy at + odds imo. Hard to imagine 54 year old Mike Tyson point fighting.

    I can't get a good feel for it because I 100% have no fucking idea what to expect. I just don't think they're gonna come out trying to kill each other. I can't see it. Maybe they do, though.

    I hope Nate Robinson finds a way to KO the Paul douchebag, though.

    Fighters say its real, commission says it ain't. Tyson says he wants to KO the guy, commission says no knockdowns. Commission says exhibition, no judges, promoter is bringing judges from the WBC anyway just for funsies, because why not? etc...

    This is one of those events that exposes commissions as the frauds they often are.

    Weird shit.

    And just to make sure it's EXTRA WBC-ish, they created a belt for it. The "Frontline" championship belt.

    Tyson is making $10M off this pay per view. He says he is giving it all to charity. I thought that was BS, until I read he is making millions now on a weed farm he merchandises. So I guess he really is just doing this for fun and charity since apparently he is making $500,000 a month on his weed farm.

    what a horrible ref how were they letting that fight continue? Robinson never made the count either of the previous knockdowns. Jake Paul landed about 5 punches and nearly killed the guy. Had no business in there. Props to Paul.

    Can;t imagine it happens will continue to be youtube beefs and freak fights. Paul smart enough to know he can;t make real money if fighting actual fighters.

    I'm actually surprised he never did MMA as his background is football/wrestling. Then again I'm guessing the money is in boxing for him. Also far less intimidating.
