it's not a fight-it's an exhibition. Shame on those who pay to see this if they feel cheated or disappointed when it's over.

It’s been reported by the media that the exhibition will be stopped if either fighter gets cut or one of them attempts to score a KO (as per the CSAC licensing rules).

And there’s no judges either, so no winner will be declared at the end of their sparring session, since no officials will be scoring each round.

So I guess that answers your question.

What Mayweather said,

"I think that we seem to forget about who was the pioneer of making exhibition bouts huge. Joe, a lot of times we forget about certain things. I mean, I think that it’s gonna be very interesting. I’m not here to say Tyson’s gonna win, I’m not here to say Roy’s gonna win. I’m pretty sure it’s gonna be entertaining, I’m pretty sure I’m gonna watch it," Mayweather told rapper Fat Joe during an Instagram Live interview.

“I don’t know if I can go because I don’t think there’s gonna be any audience at that particular time. But, may the best man win.”

Like he invested exhibitions.. :lol:

It doesn't answer my question but it does give me a lot of good information. Actually I found all that info after my above post and before I read your accurate description. A ridiculous buy without a good undercard.

No one can answer the question because a melee could still occur.

I can see both guys losing their tempers, but it would be stopped right away. Can't see the allure of this at all.

You’re absolutely right, someone could potentially snap and break the rules.

However, if you’re sparring someone who isn’t trying to hurt you and won’t be deemed as being the “winner” at the end of the spar, then what does either man have to lose?

Why would someone completely snap and lose control, when they literally have no reason to worry about being “hurt” or “losing”?

You might be reading too much into things. I don’t think either man are treating this as anything but a public friendly sparring session, without inflicting pain on their opponent.

Wow, Hopkins said Mike Tyson has a chance of being the undisputed HW champ of this era. This is a new level of nonsense not seen before. I thought David Haye was the no.1 shite talker of this era but Hopkins takes the cake.

For real.

Mike Tyson would not make it to round 2 against any of the current HW top dogs; even the next tier guys like Ruiz & Parker would tear him a new one.

Hopkins must be tripping. :doh:

Well it only makes sense that since he couldnt make it past 6 with Kev McBride 15 years ago that he would be the undisputed champ today :maybe:

Exactly! The great Kevin McBride laid down the blueprint on how to defeat Tyson. All you need to do is hit him more times than he hits you. I’m not sure if someone like AJ has the skills to follow the blueprint but the blueprint is available and gives him a huge advantage.

Doesn't work on Punch Out. You can land 10 or 20 punches, but if he lands 1 it's your ass :lol:

I gotta admit, Mike looks pretty good on those pads, better than a lot of the hws contending these days, but then you remember that 15 years ago f@cking Kev McBride stopped him

Yes, because Roy has borrowed the blue print from Kevin McBride.
