Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. expressed disappointment regarding the rules set for their exhibition match this coming 28th of November.
One of the rules annoyed both of them as he felt that a two-minute per round is only applicable to women.
That\’s for women. Why we [only] fighting two-minute rounds? I don\’t understand that. We\’re not women. I\’m not happy at all,\” said Jones.
Tyson also released a similar statement.
I\’m sure they have their reasons for doing it. The women fight for two minutes. But it\’s not about me; there\’s a charity [element] … I\’m just happy we\’re doing it,” he said.
The decision to cut time was due to both boxers\’ age who are coming off from their retirement.
Tyson is already 54 years old, while Jones is 51.
Although both participants show incredible power and transformation in their training, the committee overlooking the match is still handing out strict rules for their safety.
Tyson and Jones are considered among the best boxers of the modern era. Undoubtedly they have a significant impact on the sport. They helped boxing become even more famous, and they elevate the sport to a whole new level.
While they expressed their say on the rules, they will abide by it.
Both boxers told that they would go all-out, but the organizers interfere as they want no boxer to get hurt.
Their fight is merely to demonstrate their style and that they can still box.
The world was turned upside down when he announced that he is coming back. His body transformation has become an inspiration.
Attracting millions of fans on his return is excellent; former boxers also got interested in coming back.
Evander Holyfield, Tyson\’s rival, said he is coming back, but Jones got the fight.
Even Oscar Dela Hoya announced that he is coming back.
It is the very evidence that Mike Tyson still has that impact on the sports of boxing.
It is also a great way to showcase his capability to the young generation who couldn\’t witness his dominance in the late \’80s and 90\’s.
Meanwhile, Jones also had a great career.
However, he knows that Tyson is still a dangerous opponent, although they got older.
The rules set on them remind them that they are no longer what they are used to be.
But instead, they will fight to entertain the fans and to satisfy themselves.

Terrence Crawford vs. Errol Spence Jr.: The Battle for Welterweight Supremacy

In a much-anticipated showdown, boxing fans are eagerly awaiting the clash between Terrence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr., set to take place on July 29, 2023.

This bout is undoubtedly the biggest fight of the year, and both fighters wasted no time in making their presence felt at the press conference, held to announce the official confirmation of the event.

With the undisputed welterweight crown on the line, the stakes couldn’t be higher.

Terrence Crawford, the current WBO welterweight champion, exuded confidence as he stepped up to the podium. Believing in his comprehensive skill set, he expressed his belief in being able to conquer the unified welterweight title holder, Errol Spence Jr.

“I think everything is a key point in the fight. You got my jab; you got my movement, you got my counter-punching ability, and you got my brain with the way I think. Just all around,” Crawford said during a press conference.

Crawford’s unblemished record speaks volumes about his dominance inside the ring. With an impressive tally of 39 wins, 30 of which were achieved by way of knockout, the WBO welterweight champion has consistently proven his mettle.

However, standing in his way is the formidable Errol Spence Jr., who boasts an equally impressive undefeated record of 28 wins, with 22 of them coming by way of knockout.

As the date draws near, the anticipation continues to build, as fans wonder who will emerge victorious and establish themselves as the unrivaled king of the welterweight division.
