I'm surprised nobody on here is talking about this! I'm pretty stoked to watch. I'm definitely taking Tyson. Never thought I'd be excited to watch a 54 year old boxer, yet, here we are.........:D

I'm actually shocked at how close they are in age. I know they're both old, but you can find footage of Tyson that looks like it was filmed while Roy was in diapers.

I think the hungrier guy wins. Both had a period of time where they were shells of their former selves. Whoever shows up most ready to fight is who I will put my money on.

Love both of these guys. I hope they both show up ready. May the best grandparent win.

Any online streams?
 
Sorry I just saw this or else I would have provided a working stream.

They called a Draw but I think Tyson won it.
 
Yeah I think Tyson won but for both fighters to be in their 50's....highly impressed honestly. The whole evening was full of good boxing honestly.

Everything except that Jake Paul vs Nate Robinson fight. Man, that was bad. I hope Robinson never tries to step into a ring again because he clearly had no idea what he was doing. lol

Well I mean we didn't get any knockouts all night so I said that was a good fight because its supplied that.

I don't know what Nate as doing other than trying to get knocked out. He literally was running into fists.

Dude, that was brutal. As big of a scumbag as Jake Paul is, that knockout was epic. If that were a real boxing match, it's a knockout of the year candidate. Just dead body hitting the mat.
 
I would say Mike won as well, but I have a feeling the outcome was predetermined if there wasn't a knockout. Almost like they agreed that if someone wasn't finished they'd just call it a draw.

On what planet is this even close? Nearly double the punches landed. If this weren't an exhibition match, this is clearly not a draw.

Props to both guys though. The post-fight interview on the runway was awesome. Mike incredibly humble and Roy mixing a bit of humility and cockiness (who would expect anything less). That said, you could tell Roy was feeling those body shots.



I thought the guy in better shape would win, and I was wrong. Mike has definitely put in a ton of work, and Roy looked a little thicker. Some of it probably trying to match size, but he definitely didn't look like he put as much work in. Tyson's physique compared to where he was once at is impressive. Been years in the making, but hats off to him.
