Iron Mike boxing RJJ in 8 round exhibition.

Roy must really be hard up for cash for his Punch drunk behind to enter the ring with Mike Tyson for the inaugural "Legends only league" fight.

Yo, I'm not even going to lie, I fukkin' love the concept of Legends Only League.

I think it's a really cool way to keep brahs at that age active. And would love to just watch friendly competition between some of my favorite older athletes.

I like it too, but how intense is it going to be? Is it going to be a glorified sparring match or are guys really going to put some effort into this?

I like it. They need to limit it to 3 rounds so they can go all out.

dude is still an absolute beast!!!

On a serious note, looking at his recent training vids at 53 yo, do you think he could give current heavyweights a run for their money?? I honestly thin he could destroy AJ or Wilder. Or maybe that's just the fantasist in me

I’m hit and miss with this

I think it’s good for some sports but boxing is a scary sport to be competing at in general, let alone in your 50s

Now I know they have their own choice to compete but also some guys definitely should not be doing this.

Reminds me of Chuck v Tito 3, Chuck didn’t belong in the ring AT ALL and it was so obvious.

But oh well I’ll watch regardless

People ITT talking like RJJ's a punk



That's how you know Tyson had the better PR department because RJJ was a much better fighter all-time.

It's just the fantasist in you. He'd have no chance.

RJJ is my favourite ever fighter, SRS. and he's been past it since his heavyweight stint but was actually active within the last few years.

Obviously prime Tyson would kill him, but an exhibition now they've both been toned down by age will be properly entertaining.

Boxing lost me ever since MMA and the UFC hit the scene. too one dimensional. you know Mike vs. RJJ is going to be a snoozefest. they're probably going to wear headgear and pitter-patter powder puff around with each other for 8 rounds in a light sparring session. boring. whoever pays for this is an idiot.

This is just sad. 99% of professional fighters should never fight after the age of 40 at the very latest.
Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

This is the biggest fight since Holyfield vs Romney!

I'm fine with them doing old timer exhibitions. Ideally stuff like this should be for charity since the quality of boxing is not going to be worthy of a ticket price.

Im wondering about this too. The bigger than normal gloves will lead them to going lighter but really its up to them if they want to go all out.

Julio Chavez Sr has done some charity exhibition matches in his 50s, same age as Tyson and they are very very light and its all for charity and not a replacement for real bouts nor does it pretend to be.
