Since it was closed for no reason..Tyson fight here...

mm: save yer breath bud. I already accepted that, but 007 deleted my post. Besides, that wasnt the issue I was trying to make.

As for topic..yes a dangerous fighter. Question is, do any of you think he will actually get his head back into the fight?

my comment wasnt directed at you, luckee. you should know that by now

i agree. if tyson keeps his thoughts in order, he\'s going to the top.  he looked like an f\'n animal saturday night

notice how methodical he was, and how calmly he picked the other guy up

Thats what got me, when he helped him up, I was stunned. I actually thought he was going to yet again do something outlandish.

As for those 49 seconds, he looked very much like when he held all 3 belts way back when.

yeah im with that, when tyson has his shit together hes the most dangerous man in the world.

Tyson is a spent force in boxing, and will NEVER be a leading fighter in my eyes again. He takes on opponents who are quite clearly not grade a fighters, just to line his pockets (he has even admitted this himself). He continues to surround himself with "yes" men, and continues to conduct himself and his affairs in an immature fashion. All his screws are loose, he is on a one way trip to self destruction, and sooner or later, he will get there. The biggest mistake I think he has ever made, is getting the face tattoo done, wtf was he thinking of? He couldn\'t have had it done in a worse place. All it will say to his opponents is "come on, hit me here, right on the temple".

I honestly do not think his heart is in the sport, come to think of it, I don\'t think his heart has been in it for a LONG time.

If, by some miracle, he DOES win the WC again, he will only lose it as soon as he comes up against a fighter with any calibre. A fighter cannot go through his career knocking bums out inside 1 round, then expect to do the same to the likes of Lennox Lewis....... it ain\'t going to happen. If the much anticipated rematch goes ahead, Lewis will destroy Tyson. But that is IF it goes ahead, Mike is up to his old tricks again, "I;m not ready for Lewis, I need 2 more fights!!". He will ALWAYS need 2 more fights, even after the next 2, he only says this for the pay cheque at the end of each fight. He is only in the game for the money, and that is the wrong reason for continueing

I can see him face down in a gutter before he is 50.

I was just trying to help I feel so rejected.

more importantly what about that freagin tat on his face?

Is that thread the reason the forums went down for a time yesterday?

Polynesean face tatoo? It\'s the war symbol. He\'s a warrior, alright. I\'d rather see him in the ring than thugging it out on my street. Poor guy. Exploited and lost big kid. Good thing he\'s got a really good trainer now, Freddie Roach. One of the best and toughest trainers in boxing today. We\'ll see how long their relationship lasts.

he\'s a multi-millionare celebrity athlete, who then rapes a girl and gets arrested on numerous occasions for violent acts, bits off another boxers ear during a fight, etc...

Rapes a girl? Talk about a set up. What kind of girl shows up at Tyson\'s hotel room at 2am? Puhleez. And that\'s why I said I\'d rather see him in a ring than on a street. He\'s violent, for sure. Might as well put it do good use. And though he may make millions in fights, he gets a small portion of that. Yeah, he\'s richer than the average Joe....but still not as rich as other atheletes.

Yea poor guy, He never really got to grow up. All he did was train and fight, thats all he knows. He was exploited since forever and probably now still.

I also agree that the so called rape was bullshit. All the prosecution had to do was prove he was animal enough to do so. How hard is that to do when the defendant is a professional boxer.

Yea he has done some shaky and bad shit in the past, but out of most people that do what he has done, its understandable( well some of it). I will never understand why he bit holyfield twice.


gman, tyson gets a large chunk of his earnings. it was like that  in his early days though.

[GmanJoe]

I thought he owed a lot in back taxes. Anyway, yeah, he\'s doing better than most people. But he\'s not that happy when there\'s so many people trying to take advantage of his money.
