It didn't take long for the internet to explode. The photo came out early in the morning, Damon standing beside Iron Tyron, both mid-conversation, gloves still on, the gym lights hazy behind them.
It wasn't an official post, just a grainy shot taken by someone in the gym and uploaded with the caption: "Cross training with the legend himself?"
Within an hour, every outlet had picked it up. Sports blogs, fight pages, even mainstream media. Hashtags ran wild: #CrossMeetsTyron, #BoxingBound, #CrossoverEra.
Most fans were thrilled. The idea of Damon, the dominant MMA champion, stepping into boxing under the guidance of one of the sport's greatest minds, it sounded like history in the making. But for others, especially in the boxing world, it stirred something else entirely.
