TO FACE MIKE TYSON IN HISTORIC "EXHIBITION MATCH" PENSACOLA, Fl. – Get ready for the most anticipated fight in the history of boxing, reminiscent to professional bouts featuring immortal fighters like Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier. Roy Jones Jr., 51 and Iron Mike Tyson, 54 enter the ring against each other for an eight-round “Exhibition Fight” at The Staples Center in Los Angeles (without fans in attendance). The fight will be shown on PPV at Seville Quarter in Downtown Pensacola (Jones’s hometown) on Saturday, November 28, 2020. The fights, including undercard fights, will start at 8pm.

Jones is looking forward to his chance to fulfill a bucket-list moment and testing his skills against Tyson. The one question Jones says he always hears from people is, "have you ever fought Mike Tyson?" He says "now I don't have to say 'no' no more." Jones is still taking the fight seriously.
