I felt Tyson held back on head shots to avoid knocking him out.
Yeah it was a time it was a clear opening, Roy had both hands down for like 3 seconds standing still and mike didn’t throw the punch
Most definitely, I think Tyson was holding back as well.
@@Briguy702 I mean it was a exhibition so, now I wanna see them fight like full puches, and knockouts with 3 minute rounds. But Roy ducking smoke
@@KcraeTooOfficial I do think this fight was declared a draw for them to push for a real fight between them.
Did you hear the corner in round 7 or so they told him to show something and mike said that he did not going to do that to him
Tyson has demonstrate to the world why people still talk about him after all this years. Long live champ.
The greatest fighter of all times mike tyson💯
I don't know anything about boxing, but I thought Tyson was still quick and looked in great shape.
Tyson vs Briggs
@@every1665 shape was good, he’s juiced on the TRT. He’s not fast lol powerful and technical for surely
Tyson was a paper champion. His record was engineered.
Even Stevie Wonder could see Tyson could've knocked Jones out at any moment but held back. Tyson looked incredible!
Yep, it was obvious
Except Stevie aint blind. Search it on KZhead
@@experiment54 Denzel washington and stevie wonder
@@experiment54 Its denzel washing and stevie wonder
@@demonrash5449 Search Stevie isn't blind. Or Stevie wonder aint blind. Something like that. There is more than one person saying it 👍
When the fight was over at the press conference Tyson looked like he had enjoyed himself..........Roy not so much
lol it was pretty clear Tyson enjoyed himself.
That's cuz he just been Mike f☆cking Tysoned wtf lmfao 💀 Mike Is An Animal In The Ring!!!!!!! #MayHeForeverReignTheKingOfBoxing 🥊🤴🏾 #LongLiveTheChamp 🤴🏾🥊 #MikeTyson @MikeTyson
This was not a draw. Tyson won it. The body shots
It's hard not to believe they had pre-planned a draw before the fight.
@Kevin Barlage they did not get paid the same, where are you getting your information from?
For the past few months they’ve openly said that there will be no winner
@Kevin Barlage Tyson got paid way more than Jones though...
@@well_as_an_expert_id_say Tyson made a flat fee of 10 million, Jones is getting paid 1-3 million, not sure what depends on, maybe PPV sales?
EVERYBODY GOT A PLAN UNTIL THEY WEAR A 40 POUND COSTUME FOR THE RING...
Or realise they're just a Big Dosser
Matt Mosley Fury got up and dominated the rest of the round, Wilder was getting smacked around the ring in their second fight though. 🤣
@@Matt_Mosley1983 sorry, but what was the result?
Or they have a dent in their head which showed up in their autopsy. 😂😂🤪🥴
@@Matt_Mosley1983 lol its called knocked down not out, also got up and attacked wilder and that was when he figured out how to beat him because wilder cant fight moving backwards. that's how a real fighter picks himself of the canvas
CORRECTION, Roy wasn’t “clowning around’ Roy was trying Not to get HIT. He realized he made a BAD decision.
By clowning around I believe he is referring to his little dances he would do after they Jones got some distance. Getting in his head like he said
His face in the interview after the fight he looks sad lmao. He was obviously in a lot of pain too.
The judges ruined everything. It is obvious who won this fight: Iron Mike did it.
I don't know about ruined....well maybe if you paid full price, didn't consider this a possible re-launch for both of their careers and that most exhibition fights end in a draw...yeah I could see it
its an exhibition match. its not a real fight.
Lol ya an exhibition just be happy we saw ot
I'm a Paz fan, but he pissed me off on this.
I can't believe people think this was a real fight. It was as real as the WWF.
As for Jones, you can't fight when you can't breathe. Despite his age, Tyson was just terrific.
Indeed.
Thanks.now i understand why jones need to hug most of the rounds. Mikes punches never gets old. Still a strong man alive
trt bro
This was the best example of an exhibition, they weren't quite going all out but it was more than a spar. Man I wish this fight happened back in their primes.
Problem is in 1988 Roy was boxing in South Korea at light middleweight...
Nope if this would have happened in their primes, Jones would have suffered some career shortening injuries.
@TJ West I 100% agree with that analysis
Prime Roy = middleweight Prime Tyson = heavyweight The fact that Roy is fighting him at all deserves our respect
what where you watching?
Mike Tyson won that fight but he was awesome after the fight with his humility and desire to do well for his charity. He has become a thoughtful caring person with no ego, amazing guy!
He was always that guy Mark H. I have had the pleasure of being around Mike alot in my life. Dating back to the Spinks fight until recently and Mike over 30 plus years never one time was ever anything but a gentleman and a caring soul. This shit you see play out on HBO or Showtime was all drama that had built to much pressure and I for one understand why he blew a fuse from time to time. He was being heavily manipulated and lied to and the people he thought he could trust the most ALL, one by one screwed him over by stealing, cheating him, spreading incorrect info in the papers and Don King just full out Fucked him over. Throw in 26 headbutts in one fight and another 8 more in the rematch without the ref saying a word about it, so what is a guy to do? Fight back equally dirty is what. Nobody said shit to Holyfield for his illegal headbuts so Mike took some ears. Good for you Mike. He had it coming. A young man can only take so much before snapping. You all likes him being a bull in a China shop so when he finally broke some shit you all acted surprised. Shame on you all. Glad to see Mike so mentally grounded as he is today and doing well. You go Mike, you deserve all the good coming your way now.
I've been telling everyone that Tyson pulled alot of his punches so he didn't hurt him as much!! But draw it was not!!!
I think Tyson did himself very proud
Stem cell therapy and smoking weed. His own words.
Sssssstttterrrrrooooiiiidddddsssssss
Props to both men. Class acts, both of them. Crisp sparring for exhibition. Great for the sport!
so much that he wants to go again
@@nickpolizzi5897 no roy was annoying i hate him he made the fight boring eshiii all he did was hug
The judges are the reason boxing is dying, not the boxers
You must be dumb because these weren’t even random judges these are old boxers, champions from the past
@@Michael-pd6bc doesn’t mean they were good judges they were clearly incompetent as usual
The judges scored it that way intentionally to make it a draw. The fight was always supposed to end in a draw. It was in the rules.
Facts . This fight was an example but not a good one . Boxing judges ruined it . They are ruining mma too
@@isaiahwilliams2332 Yeah they really need to get a handle on this kind of braindead judging like increase judges to 5 or 10 or increase their training/requirements to judge for like MMA specifically they NEED to be able to know BJJ AND striking seeing fighters on the verge of submitting their opponent and still losing the round when the rest of the round was even is insane yet it happens so often they also have to know how lethal the threat is because the position might look bad but its completely safe and no threats of submissions but an inexperienced judge will never know this and both sports will potentially lose fans from enough bad decisions.. boxing is already at that point.
Who cares who won they in their 50s it’s a novelty. It was a honour to see both these legends in the ring
This man gets it
U wanted Roy to win? Lol seems like ur trying to cope with the idea that the fighter u wanted to win, lost
@@devinshearer7523 What are you talking about? He's saying that it didn't matter who won or not, he's just glad that the fight went through. Seems to me like you're making up arguments in your head.
Roys body was crushed, he could barely speak during the post fight interview.
Poor soul😞
bro no body is talking about how bad he was hurt!!!! when they were side by side after the fight he was biting his lips and sequencing up real hard and beads of sweat started flowing hard!! he was obviously fucked up!!!!!!
@@DigitalLoom chill bro
@@DigitalLoom sequencing?
Watching the fight again though he was going hard though
Roy looked good for about 4 minutes. Tyson was Tyson
mike was high
@@gottgaame ik lol
Good description
Boxing judges are hilarious
They told you there would be no winner the past 3 months..
They are usually biased
Corruption is a norm in boxing
That shit was set up like that even before the show!
Hahaha I loved Vinnie Panzienza’s scorecard! He really did not want Tyson to beat the guy who beat him 🤣
Roy jones: *tap tap tap, wheeze* Tyson: Boom. Boom boom. Boom.
😂
🤣🤣
😭😭🤣
This was actually entertaining! Looks like Tyson is just getting started, im down to watch another one of these
Didn't disappoint, two legends going at it! Both showed mutual respect for each other after
Yeah the display of mutual respect and honour was a beautiful thing to see. The old breed setting a fine example for the youth.
Excellent display of skill from both fighters. Both are winners.
Is exebition.. Tyson refuse to ko roy.. It will be bad story for mike.. If he ko roy...
This fight was alot more technical than people are giving it credit for! Two highly experienced legends
Let’s be honest. Tyson probably had an agreement with Roy beforehand saying no heavy headshots.
Agree he would have destroyed roy
Yes straight after the fight when they stood next to eachother mike said sorry. You can look it up. Roy said all good man but he was hurting and holding his ribs. My guess is they definitely agreed on no heavy punching
It was an exhibition. They all pull punches during exhibitions.
@@stormtraders when did he say sorry? He didn't. Stop making assumptions.
@@4lifebloods bro why would i be lying over that. If you can get your hands on the full fight you will see it when they stand awkwardly next to eatchother just before the refs calls the draw. Mike said something to jones and he said i’m sorry. Jones said all good while holding his ribs
Tyson was holding back he let Jones live to talk about it
How was Tyson after the fight, "how come nobody was worried about ME getting hurt " !
I laughed so hard at that exchange. Tyson is unintentionally hilarious now.
I proper laughed out loud at that, but it’s true... no one was asking about Mike...
Jones didnt and couldnt hurt Tyson. Tyson was hurting Jones with every shot. Jones looked like he was in pain during the post fight interview.
@@VitalYFZ yeah, he was holding his stomach post fight interview, even admitted in another clip all the body shots hurt him.
@@VitalYFZ Midfight and after it became clear that Tyson could not only hang with Jones but actually was in better athletic shape, had more power and gas, but before that, Mike has a point, he's 54yo and hadn't fought in 15 years. Usually, either one of those facts would be enough to suggest you shouldn't just step in and fight at a high level. It just shows what kind of unbelievable specimen he is to deliver that kind of performance.
Let's not forget, Tyson's been out of the game for 15 years. RJJ's been out for 3. He's even 3 years older than him..
Uh, Tyson is a legit HW Roy is far, far from it lol so?
@@thomasbeall9069 👨🏿🦲
When you hit the age 50 no matter what, 3 years does not make difference.
@@ncam6300 yes it does lol maybe not so much for 3 years but you’re talking a possibility of 9 years in age
I feel like no one talks about how Roy was naturally built for middle weight and was so good he moved up 4 weight classes while Tyson was born and raised in the heavy weight division. Although Tyson did have to cut weight and Roy had to gain some Tysons just a bigger dude and not enough people give Roy credit for that. Both of em are goats and im glad we got to see to legends have a nice little exhibition match.
Tyson should’ve gotten the decision. Plus he outclassed RJJ by saying he was cool with the Draw
Are you really evaluating this as a serious fight? It was planned to be a draw
Planned to be a draw but Tyson won by far
@@tylerdurden4408 nope that defense held the line
@@josephmountford2292 it was as serious as two 50+ men are legally allowed to get. If it was planned to be a draw then Roy Jones is a douche nozzle for saying he should’ve got the decision
Why do my comments keep getting deleted lol can’t handle the truth
This fight far exceeded my expectations. Iron Mike looked fantastic! I can't get over how good of shape he was in. His cardio was really impressive. Super enjoyed this. I hope they do it again.
Me too
I think 2 min rounds saved Jones honestly.
The Weasle, mannn, I can always count on you.
It was said that there wouldn’t be a winner before they fought. That’s why it was a draw.
You are correct
It was scripted
Great Video, your breakdown of the fight was outstanding! I have never seen a such accurate inspection of a fight before.
a draw is a joke, definitely a win for mike, and boy did he look the fitter one. 100 pct mike win. great bearkdown
Man Jones look like he was hurting bad in the post fight interview. Great fight overall very entertaining 👍👍👍
I saw that too! Definitely hurtin in the mid section!!
How did he “loo like” it..? He wasn’t hunched over or nothing. Maybe he sounded like he was hurting (since he said it), but it didn’t LOOK like he was hurt at all.
@@cristobalbalenciaga7295 He was wincing and looking down when Tyson was talking to Jim Grey.
Yeah - I think his ribs were killing him. He didn't even look like he was trying much to hide it either. Those super short shovel hooks from Tyson are VISCIOUS.
He was even conversating about that with Mike. Tyson shown respect to Roy for taking those shots.
Tyson was quick, strong, hard and precise. His head movement would've made Edmond Tarverdyan proud.
Great breakdown, thx for taking the time to make and share.
Completely agree tyson definitely won,and he looked fantastic.I think the ref was not breaking the clinches fasting enough though.
it was always going to be a draw. LET ME REPEAT THIS FOR YOU IDJITS. IT WAS A CHARITY. there was never going to be a winner...the draw was mutually agreed upon...think about it, all roy did for 95% of the charity sparring session was hold on for dear life. he was breathing so hard. even after the fight, minutes after the sparring happened, during the interviews, roy still couldn't catch his breath.
I hear ya. He let RJ hold all night
@@jimmorrison6067 and for you IDjit what if it was a knockout do you honestly think they would have still scored a draw if either man knocked the other one out cold.?
@@mattdayman9632 there was never going to be a knockout....it was a CHARITY, not a real boxing match. do you really thing tyson couldn't ko jones? I have seen jones get ko'd in the past by guys that don't hit nearly as hard as tyson. roy at one time, was a legit all time great...nobody could touch him. tyson purposely went to jones' body the whole fight, instead of going hard to the head...he didn't want to hurt roy, cause him any more brain damage.
@@jimmorrison6067 those boxers you speak of where not 54 years old and they where also active boxers Tyson was coming off the couch after 10 years .Even Roy said in the post fight interview his jaw was hurting bad from a punch tyson landed.Roy was just faster and that's why tyson couldn't land clean that and the fact that the reff seemed to enjoy watching to men hug for most of the fight.
I was expecting a "who those two should fight next" segment lol
Nah bro
Sick bro you ain’t lying tho you just be expecting it now we’ve gotten greedy he’s spoiled us
Mike Tyson vs Logan Paul
@@ScorpionXII lol
Thank you for the breakdown my friend. Best in the business 👍🏽
Excellent analysis Weasle... as always
Tyson won this fight, as he ripped Roy apart.
And wasn't even going all in
Yup thats what we all seen ..
Tyson won all rounds. Tyson punched, Jones clenched, there's no way they could sell this again.
Roy had only a 3 year break and looked terrible... It looked like he threw about 5 jabs per round and the rest was tieing Mike up.
I would hate to be RJJ this morning. Those ribs are going to huuuuuurt
Hopefully he took a nice epsom salt bath and rubbed his body with that green alcohol from back in the day! Lol! Tyson tore those ribs up!
He’s gonna have to make sure Tyson understands it’s an exhibition 🤣
Those body shots hurt me just watching. He is lucky Mike was not gunning for his head and just hit him with mostly body shots and carried Roy to the end of the Fight.
Mike should fight all his losses in exhibitions Lewis, McBride, Danny William's, holyfield, etc. I think he still could get ppv numbers with these fights.
Holyfield tryna hype the shit up so tyson will give him the time and day but for some reason tyson isnt taking the bait.
Great breakdown. Thank you.
Could really tell these guys were NOT trying to kill each other. It was exactly what I expected it was definitely a spectacle.
Mike still looks scary. Imagine how much scarier he could be, if he had trained for a couple of years prior.
They both held on open opportunities! It’s more apparent watching the breakdown. several openings for big shots
no, they were trying to win. dont kid yourself.
nobody wanted to see that tho
It was the whole point .did no one look up the rules around this fight?
"yeah, I went to plan B! I hit him back." 😂
Great job with this fight analysis!! Huge respect to both of these legends, 50 year olds moving and fighting better than most of us can do even in our prime
That was the best commentary on a boxing match I've ever seen. Finally I can appreciate it the way it's meant to be.
Tyson is an amazing human being in all levels, great fight
*Roy Jones - Can't we just Hug this out?* 😂🤣😂
LMAO! Mike wanted to fight some (not kill him) and Roy wanted to dance
“I can’t believe I’m saying that” bro that’ll live on with you forever jaja happy you do this and when we’re old we will look back at this and feel more special
Great analysis and recap.
I couldn't even see a draw. I just thought Tyson won
Mike looked great and roy did for the first couple of rounds. I thought we were gonna see two slow old men but they surprised me at how quick they still are
Excellent fight analysis.
That was perfect dude you broke that s*** all the way down 💥🥊💥 Subscribed
KZhead: the Weasel has uploaded a new video Me: thank you so much man
I wanna know more about the fake kick from Mike😂
L.ao I laughed so hard when that happened. Mile is the man, he still has awesome technique and power. I was very impressed and surprised with tyson
Bruh did you see the part where Mike started biting his glove 😂
@@martintooswoovy573 Yes, lol
@@martintooswoovy573 he always did that in the beginning of his career. Bite his glove. Stopped after he fired Rooney but would do it once in awhile. It was awesome seeing that again
Was an exaggeration to make Jones react, and to see how he would react.
This break down was like no other! I’ll be following you forgot all my boxing insight 🥊👍🏾
I think Mike held his power to not hurt Jones
We love you Mike, we are unworthy !
🤣😂😭🤣🤣😭🤣😂😭😎❤️...yup!!!
@@jadedbutrfli?
This made me laugh! So hilarious!
Tyson knew he didn’t wanna kill Roy. He would’ve thrown 500 headshots. It was a charity match and they’re both 50 give or take, and Roy had great defense, and gave a good swing at it. Don’t think about the tie too much, and enjoy that our generation got to witness a full 8 round Mike Tyson Vs Roy Jones Jr fight.
Very good analysis. I'm glad you pointed all of these techniques that were displayed between these 2 legends. People thought it was just a hug fest but even though their skills are diminished , there was a lot of thinking involved
I love your breakdowns!!!!!
It was way more technical than I thought great in depth of this fight! They were both trying to outland eachother!
Not since Cus died has mike looked focused and happy to be there. Looooong time no see
@Mr. A. Knight *Focused and happy
Awesome fight! Awesome break down!
Nice breakdown and commentary!!
i feel like weasle is the voice in my head when i watch fights.
Tyson: It was fun let's do it again! Roy: 🥴
Excellent analysis.
Salute both legends! Thanks for not disappointing us.
I'm just glad they're both OK and both did themselves proud especially Tyson
I think Mike was purposely going a little bit easy. In his middle years Mike has the character of a saint.
Excellent technical analysis!
Great analysis!
It was probably always supposed to be a draw lol that's probably why both men agreed to this fight neither were gonna take a loss and they knew that, boxing is sometimes abit weird like that
the fight doesn't count on their scorecards did you not read the fight rules
so I doubt that
and not only that roy jones said after the fight he hates draws
Mike Tyson won
Abit fixed like that
I need to go to bed, goodnight yall
Lol
looking good there bones, cant wait to see another mugshot soon.
Great name! 😂
Thank you. Great break down of this classic match.
Love the breakdown, keep it up!
Wasn’t part of the “Rules” for this fight that it would be a draw?
^
Yes
Yea cause it was a Charity Exhibition
Could of been fixed to set up a draw...some times fights get paid off...then again I agree with refs killing boxing. I liked boxing back in the day. Like 90's to 2000's
@Prophet Beavis You missed the point. This fight was not about who of the two legends would win. This fight even happening was a win for them both, but most of all a win for us fans
The rules said clearly that there was no official scoring. It was a celebrity line up of judges
great video man 👌
Oh Bro Awesome Breakdown Tho.. Good Observations.. Keep up the Great Work
“This fight reminds me of two of my uncles fighting at the family bbq.” - Snoop dog
Hahah, his uncles are badass
Snoop was annoying as hell during the fight. Great in between fights but should’ve kept him out of calling the fight
If I had a Uncle that could box like these guys, and especially with the body shots, I would run for my life from those Uncles and show nothing but fear. What you talking about Willis?
That comment from Snoop pissed me off. They didn't look like some random uncles fighting in there. They looked like boxing machines. ESPECIALLY Tyson. I was simply blown away by his power, his head movement, his footwork, his conditioning... He looked damn near perfect.
Ya big talk by a vegetable that couldn't fight a 12 year old. Tyson held back and still Roy was hanging all over Tyson hugging. I think Roy was dazed thinking this was a dance contest not a fight
lol there was a point in the later rounds where Tyson hit Roy so hard that Tyson himself had to clench to hold Roy up on his feet
Outstanding breakdown of two legends!!!!
That was a great breakdown of the fight !!!
a draw is cus they want the 2nd fight too be.
I dont think Roy wants any part of a round 2 after this beating
@@miantava Roy made it clear he may fight again against another, but he wont be going in the ring with Tyson ever again.
Roy isn't good enough to get my money. I'd pay to see Tyson fight someone else.
Two of my all time favorites. I’m just glad they both lived. Glad they both made some money, I hope they are smart with it. Personally, I thought Tyson looked a little bit “better” then Jones.
All the money will go to charity
Il Conte Except the 13 million Mike got paid for fighting unless he is donating that as well ?
@@MrWeareone777 All Mikes money is going to charity. He makes enough money off weed he dont need to fight for money ever again. All his fights like this will be pure charity from here on out. Mike feels its his way of giving back after the life he lived in the past.
Actually Mike is a MultiMillionaire with plenty of Money. He is giving his money to Charity
Another awesome breakdown
Very good breakdown 👌
Commentator: Roy would u fight Mike Tyson again Roy : I'm going to ask my family Me: 😳 wtf!
He was going to ask his family about ever getting in the ring again ever, not against Tyson. Think he was clear he wouldnt do that again.
I'm sure pissing blood for a week will let him know that's not a good idea.... especially with Tyson
Roy is done! Tyson is strong as a Rhino! He held back and Roy was hugging all over Mike. No no, Tyson all out would KO Roy
Iron Mike looked good. Roy could only hold & spoil to stop the combination punching, even if as you showed he had some offensive manoeuvres just falling short. Vinny Pazienza is a MUG.
Dam didnt realize i wasnt subscribed. My bad. Great work as always. Youre one of my favorite fight analysts
