Legendary boxers Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr., 54 and 51 respectively, will return to the ring and square off Saturday night.
While the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) is sanctioning the fight, it will have special rules. It will be eight two-minute rounds and instead of 12 three minute rounds, they will use lighter gloves, any cut will end the fight and there will be no knockdowns or official scoring.

So it's kind of more of a fun exhibition than a serious competition. Mike Tyson was certainly having fun when he ate the ear off of a cake made to look like Roy Jones Jr's head in pre-fight Thanksgiving festivities.
"It's real good. It tastes so much better than Evander's," Tyson quipped.
Of course, Iron Mike notoriously took a bit of out Evander Holyfield's ear during their 1997 fight.
