Tyson vs Jones Jr was, at best, thought of as a nostalgia trip with a hint of circus thrown in. It was a sideshow, nothing like the main event fights of old or of the UFC today, but they SOLD like main eventers! The PPV across all platforms had 1.2 million buys at $49.99 a pop. That is a hefty chunk of change.
According to Alex Pattle of the Independent this is the biggest boxing event of 2020 and second biggest combat sport of 2020 behind UFC 251.
