I was surprise when you post no winner, no KO.. I haven't read the rules, so I do a little check, and it's really correct, no winner if no KO..

The Rules for Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr.
Tyson vs Jones will go down at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California. The duo will not be wearing any headgear during the match. Besides that, they will compete with 12-ounce gloves. And there will not be a winner unless there is a KO or a TKO.

So this means it's an exciting fight? Or a boring fight as it's unlikely to see a KO from the old fighters?

I doubt that they are going to look for a KO here, just an exhibition match, so it could be just an ordinary match, neither exciting or boring as well. Or perhaps they could stage this fight, so for me this will not be as competitive as others wanted it to be.

But I agree that they should at least wear a headgear for protection. Both fighter are in their 50's already. Better have something that will save them later in life.

So it's not gonna be exciting to bet because there's no winner if there's no KO, I'm sure sportsbook won't make profit for this as even if they will receive millions of bets but at the end of the game no KO will happen, they will refund the bet. Grin

One of them must KO to get the winner. I wonder if that fight will be bloody fighting in the end if that is the rule. Pity the two boxers if someone has to be knocked out considering that both of them are already old. I hope the rule can be changed for their safety because we will see two old men fight each other in the ring without any headgear.

Nah.

They don't have a KO just to be the winner. The normal ruling is applied, they have to finish the rounds if there will be no knockouts. That's ok since they are older this time.

But looking how conditioned Mike is, there's a possibility that he'll do it.

It isnt necessary but as a boxer then you would really have this kind of target on where you should KO your opponent.This one is a serious fight not just hanging around and

trying to give off punches that can only entertain the public.People do paid off and they should at least give out some good entertainment.We might not able to see an intense fight

which is comparable into their prime days but this one is still interesting to watch.

This gonna be an interesting fight, so either ref decision's or a fighter to fall down, with their age it's going to be more on TKO than
a KO win, just an opinion though.

They've need to really shows the eagerness trying to put their opponents down.
Or be aggressive to make sure that ref will call and stop the fight.

I was hearing from news outlets that they will be wearing head gear and in one of the interviews even Roy Jones Junior was saying about wearing headgear because the rules for exhibition says that. Even if there is a knockout it will be in the later rounds as they will try to entertain the audience at home rather than having a quick finish.

im guessing their performance will not be as serious as it is only an exhibition fight. so expecting a KO may not be in the cards here.

There will be no winner if no K.O.

As far as the rule is concerned, the winner won't be judged by decision - no unanimous, no split, no whatever. Only via Knock Out.

There are no judges to score the fight but the only referee.

Quote from: AmoreJaz on August 05, 2020, 05:59:16 PM

i dont think bookies will include the odds of KO here. right now, the odds are favouring Tyson in most sportsbookies.

Because K.O is the only method to win the match, it's impossible, of course, that the sports-booking websites will not add a Knockout betting option.

If this is just an EXHIBITION, then he'd have to finish the 12 rounds all for the PPV. But we don't want that, we want a real knock out.

The match will be settled via TKO or if another fighter isn't able to continue the fight.

We will see a TKO here. No judges to score points for decision.

Wow... that's a very aggressive prediction,

For me, since this is an exhibition fight, I don't want to expect that this fight would end a KO, maybe if there's an adds like a certain fighter win by TKO, that odds is going to be attractive, because I believe it's unlikely to happen although both fighters have power during their prime.

Why not?

More odds gives gamblers more options, I'm sure they will include that odds but I don't know what odds they will offer.

Mike tyson is still the best fighter and very aggressive in all of his fight. Never seen him afraid to get punches from his opponent and on the contrary his opponent always in a defensive state where mostly could only throw few punches. He can fight big and taller opponent and even knock it out. If this fight will continue then I am still infavor for Mike tyson. I just wonder why he came back to fight after retiring? Does he need to prove himself that he still can fight?

I would say he is, despite of his back to back losses before he retired compared to RJJ who's still owning at his age. But, will RJJ going to beat the legendary Tyson during their exhibition match? And Also, I wonder why Tyson is back after retiring although it's just an exhibition match. Does Mike Tyson missed the ring? Or he's just missing the crowd cheering for their favorite fighter?

You wont go in to a fight just because you do missed out something, of course it would be an overall thing where you do missed out your fans and also you do missed to box.

As a legendary boxer on where this sport do established out your fame and popularity then its just hard to believe that you would completely forget it into your life.So its just normal or no brainer
that both fighters do consider out to have this even in spite of their age.

This might be an exhibition match but we would really see some hot fight on here.

Mike has a lot to prove now that many will speculate that he still can do it. There isn't really a clear rules regardnig this fight and whether they will have anything at risk apart from the pro records adding another loss.

It will not affect their professional records. Their record as professional boxers already sealed when they retire and only it will be changed if they will fight for a professional, title, or untitled match.

Since it's an exhibition match, the event can be compared to basketball's NBA All-Star game that is pure entertainment but with a competitive goal to win.

Both are almost of similar age like Mike is 54 and Roy 51 years. Mike has proved his mettle long back when he was the champion of his times. So now he does not have to prove anything I believe, but not sure what made his mind to go for this match. He is no doubt still aggressive in his fights and lot of learning for the youngster while watching his matches.

They call this an EXHIBITION!! Here's what Chael Sonnen had been saying about this EXHIBITION. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCWTsqkX7Fs

If this is just an EXHIBITION, then he'd have to finish the 12 rounds all for the PPV. But we don't want that, we want a real knock out.

Two boxers, different advantages when it comes to their skills and mostly about their luck. This match could turn around anytime, cause anything could happen, a miracle could happen, either Tyson or Jones would win this match. It would depends on how accurate their punches would land on each other's faces or body, then after that it will depends on how much they can endure.

We all know that Mike Tyson is a little bit old already but still kicking asses, and the other one (Jones) is a little bit younger. A lot of things should be consider to come up with a conclusion on who is going to win. I've heard in the news that this match is not really good for both of them and might lead in some serious injury. So fingers crossed on this match.

Based on the votes, looks like RJJ is going to be adding another loss to his record.

Too bad it's just an exhibition, I personally think it should be sanctioned as a pro fight and count toward their records—especially if it ends in a knockout (which it probably will).

Roy Jones Jr is still active, so I don't get why he's able to lose an exhibition with Tyson without it counting towards his record—it's not like Tyson is an amateur?

I can only assume that Tyson failed the medical tests required to get his pro license.

I havent seen one but doesnt mean that he didnt train behind camera as you can see on his body shape then you would surely say that he does.. Grin

Blacks are always in good shape. All they need to train a bit and they will be shredded with 6pack (this is not rasism, but just my notice. at the same age, blacks are well shaped, while others have beer belly. sorry if I offend someone with that).

I'm gonna vote for RJJ. I think he will run from Mike in first round and avoid being closed in corner, in the second half of their fight he will perform a knockdown and in the end win by points.
