Before UFC 309, boxing veteran Mike Tyson, in a much-awaited bout, fought Jake Paul, who won via unanimous decision over the 58-year-old Mike Tyson. The combat sports community praised “Iron” for his willpower to step inside the ring against a much younger opponent, while many combat athletes gave mixed opinions on the boxing fight. UFC heavyweight champ Jon Jones, who defended his heavyweight title at UFC 309, is no exception as the champ, during a press conference, shared his thoughts on the match-up and gave credit to Mike Tyson for being what he is and giving his fans what they wanted to see.
It was hard to see him so old. Roy Jones Jr kept saying it ‘man, those legs aren’t working’. It was really hard to see. He really sold it with the highlight videos of him training and his physique. I wish he wouldn’t have shown us his a**, that was a little wild. I was like ‘Mike, you didn’t have to do that’. Mike’s a freak I bet, Mike you old nasty old man. You old dirty b******, you… I respect him so much for getting in there, that was the cool part. I’m sure they compensated him very well. Also, he got to give a bunch of fans what they wanted which is just to be alive to see him compete.”
Jon Jones said
According to the latest updates from the UFC, the match-up that people have been waiting for a long time, Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall, will come to fruition if the negotiations with the UFC go according to what Jon Jones wanted. The upcoming UFC 310 has some significant changes. The UFC made the previously declared co-main event into the main event, and in the co-main event, a much-awaited bout between two undefeated fighters is going to take place.
