That's what we want to see, not only Tyson but Jones as well, they should look sharp and give their best in the fight though the fight is shorter in terms of minutes than the usual, can't wait to see this fight, it will be in less than a month now and I think this time around, it's gonna happen.

It's a long preparation for them, I'm hoping for a big success.

One months left to start of this fights of legends.
Reminder that this fight will be eight round and rounds have been shortned to only two minutes.

Today was the day of Press Conference for Tyson vs Roy Jones fight, and you can watch it here, and it is moderated by well known ESPN journalist Ariel Helwani, people know him from commentating UFC fights, and Tyson coach for this fight is MMA coach Rafael Cordeiro:

Ariel Helwani is the most hated by Dana White and most of the fighters do not like his style as he instigate fighters and try to get a reaction out of it, i guess he did something like that in this video as i am yet to watch it i am not sure what happened. When the videos of Tyson started coming online he was sparring with Rafael Cordeiro but he is not a straight up boxing coach and who is training Roy Jones.

November 28 falls on Saturday. This fight should attract a lot of spectators and therefore funds. As many analysts believe, the postponement of the battle will play a positive role in terms of both preparation of fighters and organization of the match.

P.S. I will cheer for the old man Mike Tyson. I think that he will perform with dignity before retirement.

I thought there's no crowd on this fight, the funds will only be taken from PPV, so let's hope they'll be able to sell according to their target so they'll not postponed the fight again, some people can't wait to see this especially the old ones who are following the journey of Tyson in boxing.

Wow. Didn't knew Mike Tyson was coming out of retirement. This is an exhibition fight with 2 minutes round that's why it would be more of an entertainment rather than real fight. Something like WWE style. It's more about getting some money. Who would win it would be another puzzle. Roy Jones Junior may let Mike Tyson win as it might be Mike's last fight while Roy Jones may have other match for glory. But he might want the glory for himself.

Thanks for the update, I was wondering if a 2 minute game would make a huge difference for both fighters? but anyway as long as I've seen them on the ring again that's fine. Let's just hope this would not result to any serious damage to both fighters since they will not use a protective gear.

Obviously, it will save 1 minute of getting punished in the head, so that's a good start to prevent more damage in their body. Also they will not get exhausted as their body will not go to the usual 3 minutes/1 minute rest between each round.

Jones has also been in the public lately, trying to sell this fight as much as he can. Press conference scheduled on Oct. 29 so the excitement is already building up for this fight.

I've read that kind of concern many times in this thread, but I believe they will be alright, they themselves understand that they are not fighting for belt, this is just an exhibition fight, people wants to see them still healthy after the fight while expecting some kind of entertainment too.

Just trust them, they know what they are doing, they've been in the business for many years.

Good point and for sure they are being prepared by their respective doctors and training camps. They are not young in age but the desire to bring entertainment and those old glory days.

We will see those old blow, those old power punch to be thrown, as it can't be controlled knowing that this two boxers are really good at it.

But at the end of the day, the fight mostly for bringing entertainment and not to push
the K.O they are aware that both fighters needs to stay being healthy after this fight
and enjoy what would be the compensation that will be raised for both of them.

This is an exhibition fight and i really do not think that they will go head hunting as their main aim is to raise money and not to prove that they are the baddest fighters as they are well passed their prime, the intriguing factor is that these fighters were supposed to fight during their fighting career and it never happened and the rules for an exhibition is always flexible according to both these fighters.

You wont able to say that because if you are a legendary boxer then you would always have thought in mind on proving out that you are still the best on that age.

They might not be head hunting but we would really see some serious fight here even though this is just an exhibition but this is way more better to look rather than

Mcgregor vs Floy mayweather exhibition which you do know it isnt really that appealing or much interesting and base up too much on hype.Different fighters with different rules
unlike this one which both is known in boxing world wayback.

Is this fight would able to push through?

i think mike tyson because he has a plan and technique which is the 'peekaboo' that's the big advantage of iron mike and why im saying this cause of all these tyson skill are only tyson skill where roy doesn't have that.

Just bumping this thread for some updates, the round has been shortened from the regular 3 minutes to 2 minute round for safety purposes (specially for Roy Jones).

I agree, they need to take a look at this boxers health and try to reduce the effect on them after the fight. 2 minute is still good though, in boxing there's a lot that can happened, and they don't want to get more damage, specially to Jones, which seems to stutter a lot now (I don't know if you have notice it), but most of the time it's hard to understand what Jones is saying. Good for WBC to stepped up.

It's good to see that they clarify it before the fight, this is an exhibition fight from old fighters, they don't need to follow the usual format as they are not active anymore, however I'm afraid that it will lessen the interest of the fans to subscribe for this game.

I think this is much better since this is a Knockout game and not a exhibition in which these 2 fighters will really try to beat down each other.

Still i am for Mike Tyson in this fight and Hope will end without injuries because the fighters is older than the normal boxers that fighting for knockout.

I think it's good though, remember that this is already old warrior, and eventhough they have train hard for this fight, they no longer possessed that stamina to stay in a 3 minute round and it could really affect them, not during the fight, but after as it could have a negative impact on their health as they might be push to their limits.

Quote

"They've got me doing eight two-minute rounds now. That's to his advantage too. Everything's to his advantage, that's to his advantage too. At this point, the fans are so excited about it, I wouldn't want to pull the rug from under the fans… and they (Team Tyson) will try and sue me. It's not really worth it, so I'm going to go in and do these two rounds , but I'm going to have to work a little bit faster than I expected to," Jones told Joe Rogan.

"They decided this just last week. They change stuff on me by the week. I think the WBC came in and said they want to put up some kind of title or something, so they want to cut it back to two minute rounds. They said something about the Arce and Chavez Sr fight, how fatigued they were after the fight and they feel like that's a safety measure. But what they don't realise is that the longer you keep Mike fresh, the more dangerous that is for me. I need to get Mike un-fresh quick, so that I can get out this danger zone.

"(Chavez Sr) and Arce fought a 'true' exhibition with headgear and big gloves, but they said they were so exhausted afterwards, that they felt that is what could inhibit somebody's health. I want it to be three minute rounds, it's safer for me."

https://www.cbssports.com/boxing/news/roy-jones-jr-says-he-may-have-made-a-mistake-in-taking-exhibition-boxing-match-against-mike-tyson/

Looks like Roy Jones Jr knows he's going to get smashed.
Even though it's an exhibition bout, both of these guys are extremely competitive, and I don't think either are going to want it to go to the score cards (well maybe RJJ).

Pushing it back to November does slightly favor Roy Jones, since he'll be able to bulk up somewhat to close the weight gap, but I still think Tyson will come in significantly heavier—after rehydration at least.

Is there any information on whether they have to make wait or what's on the line?

Its going to favour the promotion since by November, there vaccine couldhave been massively distributed already and perhaps watching the fight live on the ringside will be possible. Making money is the top priority in this exhibit.

They are there to show off. One way or another they will show which one can really still be on the track and its not going to end pretty like an exhibition match.

The longer we talk about the fight it will bring more hype.

I'm pretty sure Roy Jones Jr. does not meant what he said, he is just saying that so you guys will bet against him, lol..
Roy Jones Jr. is a boxer, one of the greatest boxers in boxing so I believe he already know what Tyson can do prior to taking the fight.

He will get smashed? then what? that's what boxing is for, it's a physical game, one will win and the other will loss.
