They're apparently set to fight in September:

I think Jones will destroy Tyson. People think Mike is the same guy from late 80's/early 90's. He's 54 compared to Jones' 51, and Roy has been consistently fighting the last few years, with his last fight in being 2018, Tyson's last being in 2006.

If this is a real fight where both are trying to knock each other out, Roy should win this easily.

Nah Tyson will crush that little fellow. There are weight classes for a reason.

EDIT - Now that I look at their stats they are closer to being the same size than I thought.

I don't know of anyone who would seriously think that Tyson is the same guy he was decades ago
a single punch from either could end the fight
I look for a lot of clinching and resting
heaving breathing and a TKO

Your right.
Two men in their 50s swinging at each other.
Either a lucky punch or stamina will decide it.

Tyson is 50yo but still strong and skilled.
I think he is the winner in this fight!

I don't why I said September. The fight is in November.
