Mike looked great. You can tell he wants more rounds.

Honestly as an exhibition for Tyson it was fun and cool; shame about Jones but his sad state's been apparent for years because he kept boxing until pretty recently.

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.
It's surprising to see Mike Tyson still having some of his magic. The way he closes distance is scary.

So, what was Jone's best moment? I think he landed a left hook hand counter punch in the middle rounds and that was literally it? I don't think any of his late round flurries did anything.

Yeah, Mike Tyson standing just outside of punching range, feinting head movement and side steps, waiting for his opponent to commit so that he can slip in and counter punch, is still really tense and exciting. He looked good!

Foreman's was really good, and you can find all the relevant fights on youtube; the various "second tier" fighters he tunes up on at the start of his comeback make for some good fights because a lot of them are semi-washed up fighters themselves, on the back half of their own careers, or just guys that were never really great.

Edit: He's up to being, like, 70, that's what.

He didn't entirely slip all the hard head shots, so he accomplished his secret goal which is to loving kill himself boxing.
