Rather than watching the broadcast live, the patriarch plans to wait by the phone for the final result.

“I’ll be honest with you, no. No, I won’t be attending,” John told Playbook Boxing. “Let me tell you, you have more chance of seeing a cow fly than me bothering with it.”

This goes beyond dodging the media crush. John refuses to sit ringside as an ordinary ticket holder while outside handlers run Tyson's corner.
