It was impressive tho. What impressed me the most that I do think Roy was a little scared of mike and those blows really hurt him and he’s gonna feel that the next week but he battled. [Reply]
I was surprised they went 8 Iron Mike got in good shape. Roy Jones Jr took a beating on those ribs. Roy had to lock up and hold to survive he was poorly out of shape. That ref let him hold for too long. I think he was scared of the way he was breathing that he might have a heart bomb. Neither face was marked up badly so any blows to that head must have been glancing. That was no draw but exhibition and charity so I'm good with it.
Like others said Snoop was funny but he walked over the other guys. His line was like his uncle's fighting at a bbq was pretty good. It was fun I enjoyed it except for the mess before it all. [Reply]
Triller did a fantastic job with the entertainment side of this card and they've done so with previous fights. Boxing has slowly been making a comeback, both boxing and MMA need to try and emulate this formula ratings will go up especially during these times. [Reply]

I think Tyson Fury brings some people to boxing now. Not as much as old school Iron Mike. But he’s a polarizing figure. I watch when he’s fighting. [Reply]
I didn't tune in soon enough for the Paul/Robinson fight, but watching the highlights this morning was hilarious... apparently all his NBA buddies are ultra-butthurt about it :-) [Reply]

I didn't even recognize Robinson at first.
I will say it took a lot of balls for him to get in the ring and try to fight. He was painful to watch, but he was game. I was shocked he got up after the first knock down and still had it in him to fight. The second knockdown was ugly. I thought he was seriously hurt at first. [Reply]

I wouldn't have had any idea who he was without someone telling me [Reply]
At the very least, that fight was infinitely more entertaining than the legend fights UFC has promoted of 2 guys beyond retirement. Mainly because Tyson still looked legit in the ring, Roy Jones didn't even look like he wanted to be in there with him. [Reply]
