The Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, is ready to be the backdrop of a unique moment on a very special night, where two legendary champions will climb into the ring again, in an historic eight round exhibition…none other than: Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr.
Two boxers who have burnished nameplate roles in the roll call history of the WBC and have written many pages of Green and Gold bold script in our sport, and our hearts. Two men who tomorrow will ascend into the ring in an altruistic exhibition, because all the funds raised will go to the “Battle of the Front Line.”
Today, Mike and Roy got on to scales one by one, tipping 220 pounds and 210 pounds, respectively.
So, everything is ready to enjoy these two boxing legends, who will receive a very special WBC belt in recognition of their efforts to bring entertainment to the world, motivated by a great cause during these difficult times for humanity, where we are eager for good actions and cheering news.
The commemorative belt will be the traditional Green and Gold. However, the plate will be metallic black with gold-colored finishes, and will have the legend of “Tyson vs. Jones ”and the message of“ Black Lives Matter,” in addition to special ceramics along with the photo of both fighters.
Let the spectacular commence.
