\"EvanderThe younger generation of boxing fans were treated to an exhibition fight on 28 November that featured Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jnr<\/a>. Fans who had never seen Iron Mike Tyson<\/strong> compete in the ring witnessed 8 x 2 minute rounds of pure adrenalin and excitement as 54 year old Tyson still showcased great speed and head movement.<\/p>\n

Tyson has vowed to continue to fight and do exhibition fights as he wants to entertain boxing fans around the world. <\/p>\n

Tyson\u2019s biggest rival in the ring during his prime was Evander Holyfield<\/strong> who beat him twice. Boxing fans are keen to see the two legends once again face off in the ring even though both of them are in their 50s. <\/p>\n

Holyfield has said in the past that he would come out of retirement and fight<\/a> if the price was right. The 58 year old said that he would be willing to take on Mike Tyson with just 2 days\u2019 notice but only if they were willing to put down $25 million. <\/p>\n

Holyfield said that since he had beaten Tyson twice, he did not think it was right to call him out for a third fight. However, if the fans want it and the organizers were willing to pay his asking fee, he would be down to fight.<\/p>\n

Tyson Not Fighting For The Money Anymore<\/h2>\n

Tyson looked in great shape and every bit as menacing as before in his fight against Roy Jones Jr<\/strong>. The judges ruled that the fight was a draw which was a crying shame given that Tyson won the fight hands down.<\/p>\n

Roy Jones Jr. admitted after the fight that every punch he took rocked him and hurt him to the core. Tyson picked up $7.5 million for his exhibition fight but is giving away all of the money to charity. Even though the fight was ruled a draw<\/a>, Iron Mike said he was happy as he knows his fans were pleased with his performance.<\/p>\n
