Tyson is the poster child for untreated mental illness. In his present shape he is more deserving of pity rather than scorn. His handlers seem to be treating him like Howard Hughes was treated. Eventually he is going to kill somebody and or himself. I donâ??t think he is going to make it to 50.

Tyson has slim to none chance of surviving Lennox Lewis. He couldn't survive Holyfield and Lennox tore the latter apart.

<< A lot of what he said is true. >>


Where's the truth in anything he said. Love from the fans? Respect from the fans? He had all of that when he was "Iron Mike" not "Mental Mike". Yes, the average fan does think he's a fvcknut because he isone; he wasn't that way, or at least it was under a leash, and the average fan used to have great respect for him.

Who owes their career to Tyson? Bruno? McCall? Moorer? Douglas? Holyfield? I don't think so. Tyson proved that when he lost control of himself he wasn't a champion; it has nothing to do with his time in prison. What does he blame his loss to Douglas on when he had everything in front of him and no excuses? Oh, he doesn't mention that. And his fights with Holyfield are nothing but an embarrassment to the sport.

Yeah, it's all about money; he does have that right. I just wish that the sport of boxing and the boxing promoters could see that this guy better belongs in a wrestling ring rather than a boxing ring. He's become nothing more than a side-show freak.

And for any of you pvssies that don't think I would say this to Tyson's face, just like he gets paid millions for his carnival act, I'd be happy to take home a few hundred thousand for taking one on the chin from that chump.

My sentiments mirror yours. I whooped him on Nintendo in the second round with a true KO. I think if he swung at me I'd bite his ear off just to prove to him that he's not the only one that doesn't like to get his ass kicked! ;)

First of all.. I sure hope you all have seen Jay & Silent Bob............

I think tyson is going to fvck all of you until you love him.

Now.. My thoughts
Boxing has turned WWF. (yes that is bad) Tyson is the "bad guy" and people will pay how ever much it takes to see what he will do next. And I am one of those. Tyson does nothing for the Sport of boxing, but it sure is fun to get drunk and watch one of his fights. (Or interviews for that matter) Tyson is not insane, he has a good promoter. Just like Ozzy with his "wife=promoter" Sharon...
