Tyson and Jones Jnr set for battle

Roy Jones Jnr says he is happy he gets to see what it's like to be in the ring with Mike Tyson before he dies.

Jones told CNN he will get the the best wishes of his life.

After months of talk and social media pictures and videos of hardcore training sessions, Tyson and Jones Jnr are set to battle in an exhibition bout this afternoon.

When Tyson was in his prime, he was described as "the baddest man on the planet."

A heavyweight boxing champion who thrashed his opponents into submission so quickly, many of them never even got to experience a seat on the corner stool - they were in and out of the ring in less than three minutes.

The fight program will start in the next hour.
