It's the biggest thing since 9/11 2001.

I was in the pub.
Damn it.
Covid restrictions are still on in Melbourne.
A limit of 30 people inside.
It's booked out so I can't see it.
Damn Daniel Andrews to hell.

I'm pissed off.
Even after 9 months of restrictions I
am still under restrictions.
I hate Daniel Andrews guts.

Some people out there are giving Jones a round or two, but it looked a pretty clear 80-72 to us.

Both fighters had their hands raised at the end of the fight. That's strange. Tyson isn't happy with the way this is going down.

Coming up next: the official (but not official) cards from ringside judges Chad Dawson, Vinny Pazienza and Christy Martin.

It was sold as an exhibition, but we'd hoped it would reach the level of a proper fight, and it never quite got there. Tyson was in better shape and above all had more desire and he dominated Jones.

Tyson is walking away with this. He wanted to come back and make a statement and he has. If anything he's annoyed Jones didn't bring more to the ring.

Jones pushing Tyson into the ropes, but not throwing many punches.

Jones clinching again...

Final round of Tyson v Jones underway!

Final round coming up!

Does Tyson go for it? Expect a couple of bombs at least...

Tyson throwing more punches again. Jones looking more and more tired. Tyson just misses a right hook! That would have been 'goodnight and thanks for coming' time.

Round 7 underway!
