I’m glad that Mike Tyson and Roy Jones came out of the fight or exhibition unscathed. But at the same time, I felt disappointed and kind of robbed after watching it. I think mainly because of Roy Jones’ performance and I talk about why in the video below.
Now I wasn’t expecting to see the Roy Jones of 2010, but I was expecting a bit more than to see him just trying to waste time getting through the lap.
I understand that he doesn’t want to get hurt (and I don’t want to see him get hurt) and that maybe he was thinking about his health first. But they seemed to promise so much in the build-up to this exhibition. So I expected more than I got. But Iron Mike lost about 100 pounds and got in shape to do eight rounds at age 54. That’s incredible.
While I wasn’t happy about this fight, I have nothing but respect for two of the greatest fighters to ever do it. In this video I give you all my thoughts on this and the future:
