Im honestly very surprised they have no headgear and are throwing as much as they have. I didn't. But I didn't expect the ref to allow Jones to hold Tyson for 1:15 seconds of every 2 minute round. This fight never would have gone the distance without that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They just said the judges were former champions, so they should know how the 10 point must system works. And a draw decision is a focking joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawkeye21 1,854 Posted November 29, 2020 Fight was better than expected but a draw was BS. Thought Tyson had the edge. Either way, it was entertaining for two guys in their 50’s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I cant believe they let them go out there with no headgear throwing real punches. Foreman fought well later in life and foreman was no tyson. I did not see any jones jr fight ever and have only watched a few tyson fights live. Tyson was the fighter for 20 years. He had boxing games like tiger woods had golf games. I was interested because there was always the chance that it delivered. Tim Wakefield was a mediocre pitcher and he made it to the late 40s. Vinny Testaverde was a mediocre qb, etc. You never know when an all time great can perform later in life, especially when mediocre talents make it to the mid 40s occasionally.

They specifically said there would be no winner and both would get some goofy belt after the match. Did I not ask how this was able to be bet on prior to it?

shorepatrol 1,737 Posted November 29, 2020 1 hour ago, MTSkiBum said: I got the last 3 rounds. Jones was not fighting and was just trying to hold tyson. In a real match tyson would have kicked his ass. Today Tyson would've killed Jones if this was a real fight. (They are both 50+ lol) Prime fight would've been great. If's and buts, candy and nuts.

Then show him what I have. His age is irrelevant. At his size, skill set, and power... he still could probably kill you (literally), in 2 to 3 rounds.
