Michael Jai White on Tyson vs Jones, Disliking Adrien Broner, Sparring Jon Jones (Full Interview)

In this VladTV exclusive, Michael Jai White returned to share his post-election reaction. The actor also spoke on the unlikeliness of America experiencing a race war and the country's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. White also talked about the ways in which Donald Trump used Black celebrities like Ice Cube, Lil Wayne, and Kanye West during his campaign.
Michael Jai White also talked about sparring with UFC great, Jon "Bones" Jones, and why he believes Jones is MMA's GOAT. The topic transitioned to the exhibition match between Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. After providing his prediction for the bout, White detailed the evolution of Tyson's persona and how the media protected him earlier in his career. He also expressed his dislike for Adrien Broner and being friendly with Dr. Dre, as well as maintaining longevity in Hollywood despite the racial barriers.

He hasn't, I was curious too and It only took a few videos to see he's full of shit. "Boxer from Boston...haggler" googled it and haggler ain't from Boston. Also the shit with John Jones is so fake, he even let slip that he turned up for days on end to Jones gym for him not to show. Bet he was paying jones to say a few words and making him wait a few days was Jones power play. Ego monster. Watch him on impaulsive too and see how logan subtlety mocks him or gives a sarcastic response, they knew what he was and just let him bullshit away for an hour it's almost sad to watch.

Nah, he just not as well informed. Or knowledgeable in their career's as he claims. To make a valid argument for Jones. He'd have mentioned he was cleared of his charges. Then knew the caliber of opponents him and Khabib faced. He said a lot of controversial things. Even about boxing. Manny Pacquiao the only smaller guy. To move up from lower weight classes transcending power. Like man Roberto Duran, Roy Jones Jr., Tommy Hearns and a few others would like to see him in the back to slap him silly. Then he let Vlad call Pernell Whittaker who's a way better defensive boxer than Mayweather. Always had highly entertaining bouts boring lol. The funnier part Floyd walks through punches🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️.

You can't count jone's lost. That was not a true lost. He did a 12/6 and got disqualified for it. But I do agree, you can't compare khabib with Jones but then again Jones is a huge light heavyweight. He was babysitting that class.

[@stephenbetts8722]

True but if we’re being fair Khabib was big for his weight class as well. Jones walks around at 230 and was fighting at 205. Never missed weight. Khabib is walking around at 190 and has missed weight.

[@LG-nh4bs]

@@stephenbetts8722 yea but you can't consider just his weight. You have to look at his size and height. Khabib fit perfectly in that weight class. He matches very well with all of the fighters that fought him. However, Jones on the other hand had all the advantage in the LH weight class. He has the height, arm and leg lengths. He was way.... bigger than those he fought. It's only when he fought Reyes and Gust that he had difficulty beating them. And that's because they were almost equally match with him in terms of physic.
