You own the pen
This fight is just an exhibition fight which likely the amount of money gathered will go to charity. Fun to watch the fight, even though they won't go all out in this one. More likely there will be no knockout in this fight because the guys seem too old to knock each other out. I'm talking about these two when they are taking each other punches on the ring but if they punch us with that old hand they can still send us flying or knock us out to our deep slumber.

Mike Tyson is the heavy favorite in this poll I don;t know the condition of Roy Jones Jr, Mike Tyson's video are going around the web we have seen he is in good condition, but in terms of generalship Jones Jr has a good advantage because he has an excellent movement in the ring,  I like Tyson to win the exhibition match because I am a long time fan.

We never know their condition as they are not active in boxing anymore, we only bet because we are a fan and obviously not only here that Mike Tyson is the heavy favorite, even outside because Mike Tyson is the favorite in the betting sites or sportsbook.

I like Mike Tyson, but I am all in for Roy Jones Junior because of the odds that Roy Jones Junior is the underdog while everyone here is voting for Tyson to win.

Definitely betting against the public strategy will work here.

Mike Tyson is a legend - no doubt about it and it's a big news that he is coming back to ring again. This news is exploding in various medias already I can see.

But in this particular fight, my favorite is Roy for obvious reasons.  Roy fought his last match in Feb 2018 and Mike fought his last match in June 2005. In recent experience, Roy is far ahead of his competition here.

In boxing, agility and fitness matters the most than experience! Roy is definitely ahead of Mike!

There's no betting odds yet in crypto sportsbook, but we might see it available soon.
Question. How can this be included in a sportbetting if both boxers will only play for an exhibition match?
I think that is not a problem, any competition that there is a winner and there is a loser, sportsbook can put a betting line on that, it only depend on the gamblers if they will put a bet.

This one is even ridiculous, but there's still betting on it.

Isn't it that these matches can be subjected for manipulation since they only play just for fun?

Possible, but even professional games, they are even accuse of rigging games.
There's no difference because some believe that sports are corrupt or rig, while some believe they have a good reputation.

In the end, you choose your side and you decide.

I can't deny that Mike Tyson is a legend and already have a lot of achievements in boxing while Jones is a 4-weight champion. IMO, Jones has an unbelievable talent and even he's aging, his ability also grows.

Both boxers are invincible but I guess jones is more invincible than Tyson even he has a lot of physical attributes. Take note that Jones is recently more active while Tyson is already 15 years outside the ring so I guess Roy's speed and skill will help him to win in this fight.

I've watched a video on youtube regarding the journey of Mike Tyson. From his undefeated matches from his first loss. On the other hand, I didn't know the journey of RJJ but he is quite familiar for me as a boxer.

I'd go for Tyson in this fight but I will not bet on it. Maybe this is just a charity fight? I saw Tyson doing some sparring already and some workout. There are rumors in the past that he will fight Holyfield in a charity fight but instead RJJ is the one who will be fighting for. The situation in USA isn't that good since they are the epicenter of the pandemic but the fact that NBA started some scrimmages already is a sign that there are some indoor sports events that can continue despite the pandemic.

Good question, I'm not really sure if this exhibition match will be in any crypto sports bookies. Yes, its true it can be subject to manipulation but really depends on how they are going to set things up.

According to MyBookie, Tyson is -300, meaning you’d have to bet $300 to win $100. Meanwhile, Jones is +200, which means you’d earn $200 on a $100 wager. BetOnline.ag is in agreement. That sports book has Tyson at -350 and Jones at +275.

Tyson is -300

Jones is +200,

It opened with great odds for both, but now it changed a lot, if you are betting for Tyson, you need to bet 300 to win 100, I think it's not that attractive IMO.

I also voted for Tyson.
The odds for Tyson are far from attractive right now. Tyson is the favorite to win, but as it is just an exhibition everything can happen. Maybe they let end the match in a draw...

If you guys think this news is insane then it's not. Yeah! It shocked me this morning because I can't imagine these 2 oldies will batte despite of their age but dude there is more insane, a match up you could never think of — Nate Robinson vs Jake Paul on the undercard. Like wth! I can accept that Jake will fight again since he already got a match with KSI before but witnessing an NBA player box? Hooh so unbelievable Shocked.

I'll also vote for Mike Tyson. It's the name that I've been hearing since I was a kid. But with Roy Jones, he's also a great boxer with that record though I haven't followed his career. If this is just all about voting, Mike Tyson is my vote.

Voting and betting for Mike Tyson to win the fight, I'm not gonna make further research here, I'll just pick according to my bias mind.
The same as me, I'll go with Mike on this match.
Mike is my chicken in that fight. Both of them are strong fighters, both of them have good records and both of them have knocked out a lot of boxers but Mike Tyson have the upper hand here. I saw his current training regime so basically he is in perfect shape. I'd like to see his upper cut and left hook that knocked a lot of professional boxers. I'm sure that I'm not the only one who is really excited to see the fight.

Mike Tyson is one of the legend in boxing, so it's not hard to sell the fight since they will only just sell for PPV, i'm just wondering how much is their target in millions, and this fight is not for fund raising anymore, but for their personal only, I wonder what happen to the fight for a cause thing.

I am one of the two who voted for Roy Jones Jr, Jones is a great technician in the ring I have seen him move and evading ten punches thrown by his opponent and he is very good at moving inside the ring, Tyson is an aggressor but he is 54 he may not as fast or as strong when he is in his twenties or thirties, this is an exhibition match the skill one will win the match.

Only one voted for Roy Jones Jr, this is an exhibition match, there will be no hurting at all but I don;t think they are going to fake this fight I don;t know if they will wear protective gear but they should be, because this is just an exhibition match and both are aged, but physically fit, but getting hit at 30 is very much different from getting hit at 54, so they should protect themselves.

I'm voting for old Mike in this exhibition match. Haven't heard much of Roy Jones lately. I don't know what's been keeping him busy these days but I am always stumbling on videos and articles and other short clips of the legendary Tyson still hitting that bag. He still looks in good shape to me notwithstanding his white beard and sideburns. I think he can win this fun match despite the age gap.

Mike Tyson won unanimously on this poll but this is an exhibition match and the age gap is one big factor, we all know Roy Jones Jr is very good in evading punches and he has a good ring generalship, my bet is on Roy Jones Jr since this is only an exhibition match  Roy Jones will capitalize his age and ring generalship to win the match, but it will going to be a very close match.
I hope it will end well for both guys since both are older anyway they have over a month of conditioning and preparation.
