Sure. As I told you few months ago, you can use my posts with event info without asking Grin

Hope forums plagiarism mechanism wont cant your posts on first page as plagiarism.

Only Poirier from the main card is familiar to me. Maybe you could advice some fights that will be exciting to watch and I should not miss them?

Poirier is the only well known. But while I watch that Hooker vs Feldman, Hooker seems like a calculated fighter. He knows what he is doing and with long arms for his advantage, it can pretty much be a good fight against Poirier. The rest in the card will be puzzling for a bettor to go. I would likely give it a go to underdogs for 0.05ETH or maybe lesser.

Here are a couple of tapes to watch. I think Poirier's gonna win... But his line is so deep now so I bet on the over 2.5 rounds at 1.84 a couple of days ago. I think it's gonna go the distance since both are rangey fighters.

Poirier to win by decision at 4.59 at FJ could be good imo. Let's wait for the Rent Free MMA guys' and JanpriX's break downs.

Sparring clips of 10 to 15 seconds will not prove anything but he might stand a chance against MMA strikers for charity events even at 53 years of age but i would like to see against similar retired boxers who are still training.

These small clips will not prove anything but Tyson is not talking about fighting professionally at this age, his idea is to make some quick money for charity and he is looking for opponents that could raise the maximum amount of money, if Tyson gets knocked out he gets knocked out as this is his wish to test his animal instincts at 53 years and anyone who loves Tyson does not want to see him fight and that includes Dana White but Tyson is not willing to hear their advice.

Quote from: BChydro on June 24, 2020, 05:48:12 PM

If you are talking about Jon Jones and his punching power and facing Mike Tyson then it is not a big worry but you cannot compare every MMA striker and Francis Ngannou or Stipe Miocic could knock any active boxers and Miocic is a golden glove champion.
With age reflex goes down and i am also impressed by the videos of Tyson sparring but it is not wise to fight an active top fighter even for charity.

Jon Jones is trolling online and i do not think that he will take a charity fight with a 53 year old Tyson, Tyson offered $100 million for Jon Jones and he just said he is listening and with the battle against Dana White regarding the pay, it is all about trolling and having fun during corona. Despite that if anyone says that Tyson will not last three rounds against a MMA fighter for charity is a joke.

I haven't seen it as it doesn't seem to have show up on youtube yet, but I have respect for the guy. A lot of fighters don't know when to quit or throw in the towel, even when they're struggling to walk back to their corner or get back up from it between rounds. If you know you're defeated, mentally, physically or both then there's not much point walking out just so you can get knocked down. I liked Dana's response to the situation as well. Hopefully he'll give him another shot at some point.

The head coach Robert Drysdale gave an interview detailing the event and claims he was beating top 5 UFC fighters in gym and Rohskopf was broken mentally in the second round as he used to always dominate the opponent in the gym and during fights and in this situation when the second round became tough he was mentally broken and wanted to quit and he signed for the fight with a 10 day fight camp. If the fighter is not willing to continue the coaches should stop the fight as it will bring more damage and hopefully the UFC will allow him to fight with a full camp and see how he will fair in the UFC.

Very immature statement from you.
Be serious please before you write something like this Undecided

Comparing prime fighter in top shape with granpa Tyson.
Charity, streetfight or bar fight, he is not able to do it anymore, or he can with someone of his age or in WWE like he did recently.

Do you seriously think that Mike Tyson who was a well decorated boxer and by watching his short clips he is sharper and faster than any normal 53 year old and do you think Tyson will not be able to fight Jon Jones in a boxing match and that too for charity for 3 rounds Roll Eyes

. Let me make this clear, Jon Jones is a great MMA fighter but if he faces a boxer for pure boxing match then Jon Jones will not win as it is a different art altogether as there is a major difference between MMA striking and boxing and with that in mind i do not think it will be much of a threat, i do not want to see Tyson or any old boxer taking on a young boxer who has dedicated his life to boxing but MMA striker no problem for Tyson even at 53 years of age.

Mike Tyson had the itch to fight again and he wants to do it for charity so that he can raise money to help people and if Jon Jones wants to be the dance partner in boxing i do not see any problem as both are grown ass men and they know what they are doing and i have seen the training videos of Mike Tyson and the speed and the punching power he has at 53 years of age is incredible and it is going to be an exhibition match for 2 or 3 rounds at the most and you think Mike Tyson will not stand against Jon Jones for three rounds.

Personally i would like to see a 3 round charity fight with head gears with Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield as Holyfield also said he is willing to do a charity fight to raise money, no way i want to see any active fighters but i feel that Tyson could school many active heavyweights but lets have this a fair charity event rather than feeding anyone's ego.

That would be great charity to see.
I hope they have ear protectors this time Grin

And I agree Jon Jones is just trolling and getting back to Dana White.

This man thinks he can gain some popularity by challenging the legend.

I doubt this is the case. After all his actions inside and outside the octagon, he's pretty much known in the world of contact sports.

Quote from: yazher on June 23, 2020, 10:04:03 AM

I think he is out of his mind, he wants some charity fight with the old man? He can have some charity fight with someone his age. I think he can just fight some good fighters in the UFC the one with lots of fans to fully support their charitable activities. I just can't see it happen to him fighting mike in the future. that's not what we have been looking for.

It looks like you are not yet familiar with what's happening in the UFC recently. Nobody wants a charity fight right now. Popular UFC fighters today like Jon Jones are "revolting" against Dana and UFC management because they feel they aren't getting paid enough. Tyson himself said in an interview that if Jones wants to have some super money, Jon should fight him. That's probably a joke on Tyson's part but Jones already accepted the challenge with a proposal of his own and some people are already blowing this out of proportion.

He wanna fight for charity yet wanna fight Mike Tyson, what is that? That can't happen. Let's say Mike is in his 40s, he wouldn't fight for Charity, Mike has more to lose.

He can pick someone else that will really be willing to like Crawford but this guy might not also fight for charity.

He's just getting embarrassing now, even if he is only joking. Tyson shouldn't be fighting anyone at his age, but if he does it should be someone his age at least. JJ asking for both a boxing match and an MMA match with him is just stupid. He seems like he really is desperate now to keep his name in the limelight.

Jon Jones is a twitter champion who changes his opinion all the time and i am sure he is having fun joking around challenging a 53 year old Mike Tyson and inviting him to fight in the MMA is a meme as it is clear that Jon Jones is not interested in really challenging Tyson but to have some twitter rants going and get to the limelight as you mentioned Grin

Are you serious or what? Sad

Jon Jones is 32 years old, and Tyson is granpa 21 years older than him (born 1966), not boxing for years.
Boxing or any other sport he can't compete with Jones or any other fighter in prime shape.

Anyone watched the Max Rohskopf fight where the corner was not calling off the fight even though he said he do not want to continue which was really brutal on the corners part as he was in the fight at a short notice and he was not able to cope up with the fight and he said he wanted to quit but the corner was not willing to call off the fight and i am sure the commission will take some action against the corner for that.

. No doubt that Blaydes won the fight, he just hate him for throwing expletive statement but bring poor results. Like what ene1980 said.

Blaydes is like a Khabib - blanket on the ring, but at least Khabib does some wise ground and pound, while Blaydes just lays on Volkov and throws some punches. Best example - starting from round 3, Blaydes makes a takedown and simply tries to lay down on Volkov. At the round 5 he had almost to stamina. If there would be round 6, Alexander would have TKO him Cheesy

. I can see that he is so exhausted but his corner want him to push the fight. Hmm that is his debut but I think it will be also his last. Tsk so sad. If there's anyone to blame here, I guess it would be his team and yeah I believe they should take appropriate punishment for doing such thing.
