Tyson and Jones fight for the WBC Frontline Battle Belt created by the Mike Tyson’s Legends Only League. Mike created the Legends Only League to showcase “senior” athletes through production and events. We know what happens when you put two legendary boxers both over the age of 50 in the same ring – HISTORY!

Mike Tyson

Iron Mike Tyson is currently 54 years old. His height is 5 feet 10 inches and his weight is 220 lbs. Even at the age of 54, Mike Tyson’s boxing skills are like riding a bike. Once you learn you can never forget. Tyson has one of the most forceful punches in heavyweight boxing history.

Mike Tyson is THE undisputed heavyweight world champion. His boxing record is 50 wins, 6 losses, and 44 knock outs. The youth of today didn’t get to witness Iron Mike in his prime. He is a knockout machine. Tyson holds the record as the youngest boxer to win the WBC, WBA, and IBF world heavyweight titles. He was also the first heavyweight boxer to hold the WBA, WBC, and IBF titles simultaneously. Tyson was inducted into the Boxing Hall of Fame in 2011.

Roy Jones Jr.

Roy Jones, Jr. is currently 51 years old. His height is 5 feet 11 inches and his weight is 210 lbs. Roy Jones is a formidable opponent. He is a four-division world champion.

Jones represented the United States in the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games. He won a silver medal. There was a lot of controversy with Jones losing to his Korean opponent. Jones was clearly the winner. Even Jones’ opponent stated so. All three Olympic judges voting against Jones were suspended. The judges were wined and dined by South Korean officials to get the results they wanted. Yeah! That really happened!
