Mike Tyson is currently 54 years old while his opponent Jones Jr is 51 but Adesanya feels that age won't be a factor and that the two legends will put on a good show at the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles, California.“We’re not going to see an exhibition, this will be a fight between two war dogs gunning for each other,” said Adesanya. “I know fighting, I know boxing, and I’ve studied Tyson and Roy Jones. I know their strengths. I used to watch their highlights before my kickboxing fights just to fire myself up because I was such a fan. I can’t wait to be on this call with ‘Sugar’ Ray Leonard and shoot the s*** about fighting and share some of my insights, as well.”Adesanya recently defended his title against Brazilian knockout artist Paulo Costa at UFC 253. The Nigerian-born Kiwi put in a stellar display to thoroughly dominate Costa and register a spectacular TKO win in the 2nd round of the fight. Adesanya is likely to move up to light heavyweight to challenge reigning champion Jan Blachowicz for the 205 lbs title.
