Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr.'s highly anticipated eight-round exhibition match on Saturday night ended in a draw.

The match — which streamed on Triller and took place without fans at the Staples Center in Los Angeles — was 54-year-old Tyson's first in fifteen years.

Rather than the usual three minutes, rounds were two and were judged remotely by three champions focused on technique, style, and effectiveness of punching, defense, and aggressiveness.

Despite the draw, CompuBox said Tyson outlanded his opponent, 51, 67-37.

"I could've done everything better," Tyson — whose Legends Only League organized this weekend's match — said.
