I’m happy that Mike Tyson and Roy Jones came out of their fight or exhibition unscathed. But at the same time, I felt disappointed and a little robbed after watching it. I’m mainly thinking of Roy Jones’ performance and in the video below I explain exactly why.
Now, I wasn’t expecting to see the Roy Jones of 2010, but I was expecting something more than seeing him just trying to waste time getting through innings.
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 of his health first and foremost. But they seemed to have promised a lot in preparing for this exhibition. So I expected more than what I got. But Iron Mike lost about 100 pounds and got in shape to go eight rounds at the age of 54. It’s incredible.
Even though I wasn’t happy with this fight, I have nothing but respect for two of the greatest fighters to ever take part in this fight.
