Mike Tyson makes prediction on Roy Jones Jr fight

Mike Tyson has opened up on his upcoming exhibition match against fellow boxing legend Roy Jones Jr.. Tyson has last stepped inside the ring 15 years ago, however, he is preparing for an eight-round exhibition involving fellow veteran Roy Jones Jr on November 28. During an appearance on “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast on Sept. 4, Tyson said: “Of course it is [gonna get violent]. “Because both of us are who we are, and we’re gonna show our skills and nobody’s gonna look stupid. It’s just going to be interesting, I think. I’m just prepared to do a lot of running and chasing. That was real difficult to get into condition for, chasing this little f-----g guy around the ring.” “Getting in shape and getting conditioned are two different animals,” Tyson explained. “They don’t even belong in the same division of working out. Getting in shape is getting able to fit in your clothes. Being in condition is being able to come outside of your soul. You can’t do that automatically. The emotional state to prepare for that is mind-boggling.” “Let me tell you something about [an early training video],” he continued. “I did that video and I was in bed for a week. That was 30 seconds, and I was in bed for a week. That was not funny because it made me realize that this is big boy s--t.” source - IBT
