D.O. Double G even performed a full concert – complete with him and Wiz Khalifa smoking spliffs – ahead of his entertaining turn in the commentary booth.

Following the fight, Tyson said he believed he beat Jones Jr, but there was no anger in his voice when told it was ruled a draw.

In Los Angles, though, all that mattered was that people were entertained and money was being raised for a good cause.

“I’m good with [a draw],” he said after the result was announced.
