54-year-old Mike Tyson and 51-year-old Roy Jones Jr. return to the ring in an eight-round legends exhibition.

Two of boxing's greatest-ever world champions will return to the ring when Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. compete in a seniors exhibition fight.

The decision to resume rigorous boxing training and lace up the gloves looks set to be part of Tyson's planned "Legends Only" venture, in which he hopes to convince past stars of various sports to return to the spotlight.

"I had so many athletes that called me want to be involved with [Legends Only]," Tyson told ABC News.

"You got Jerry Rice, [Joe] Montana. Listen, there are so many people that want to do this stuff."

Jones Jr. is a curious choice of opponent for the former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.

Despite winning the WBA heavyweight title in 2003, Jones was predominantly at light-heavyweight, super-middleweight and middleweight.

Between that and the exhibition fight being shifted from six three-minute rounds to eight two-minute rounds, Jones Jr. has stressed that he feels the whole thing has been placed in his opponent's favour.

"Everything's to his advantage," he said on the Joe Rogan Podcast. "At this point, the fans are so excited about it, I wouldn't want to pull the rug from under the fans … and they (Team Tyson) will try and sue me.

"It's not really worth it, so I'm going to go in and do these two rounds, but I'm going to have to work a little bit faster than I expected to."

Here's all the information on how to watch the Tyson vs. Jones event, which also features YouTuber Jake Paul vs. three-time NBA slam dunk champ Nate Robinson.
