Pre-determined? Mike still having health issues - as in his ulcer issue that is not fully resolved? Who knows?
But this had nothing to do with Mike simply being 58 yrs old. No way, no how.
This is Mike 4 yrs ago, taking it to a pro boxer (not some wannabe turd from youtube) Start watching at the 2 min mark. Just a few minutes of highlights, watch how Mike works the peek-a-boo style that he made famous with Cus, watch the power behind those body shots, and his relentless inside pursuit of Jones. Constantly on the offensive. Every swing at Jones head was a potential knock out punch. 54 and still a stone cold killer in the ring.
Listen to the 2 fighters speak at the end of the fight. Jones could still barely breathe - Mike sounded like he just walked out from taking a sauna. Mike also landed FAR more punches than Jones, and it should have been a hands down win for him.
This was just 4 yrs ago - Mike was 54 yrs old.
Now listen to Jones regarding that fight. Start at 3:50 mark. Loved the laces to the face comment. Same old Mike @ 54.
