Speaking about the super-fight, Jeff Mayweather was quoted as saying, “Well, the fight is gonna be real. It’s not gonna be an exhibition. The fight itself is real, and I just hope that no one gets hurt because you can’t do the same thing that you do in your 20’s, or even in your 30’s actually in your 50’s. Basically, this fight can sell, more so, because of Mike Tyson. How big his name is, and he’s such a huge huge star in the sport.”
