WWE Hall Of Famer Mike Tyson Makes Boxing Return Against Roy Jones Jr.

WWE Hall of Famer ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson made his return to boxing tonight against Roy Jones Jr. in Tyson’s first fight since 2005.

After eight two-minute rounds, the fight – which was an “exhibition” – was deemed a draw by WBC judges, even though it was pretty clear that Tyson came out on top.

The post-match interview with both fighters definitely seemed to suggest that a rematch could be coming at some point in the future, and a lot of people on Twitter have speculated that the result was a work as a way to get there.

Tyson, who was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2012, made a couple of appearances for AEW earlier this year and seemed to be building to something with Chris Jericho, but that stopped after the Jones fight had been announced.
