nope, he's a waste of skin.

to be honest though, im not the biggest fan of heavyweight fights. id much rather take a more skilled and quickly paced middleweight fight over a heavyweight fight anyday.

hehe, from the simpsons

"Tyson vs. Secretariat - The Slaughter in the Water"

seriously, i would pay ~5-6 bucks to see tyson fight an animal
maybe a gorilla or grizzly, i doubt a horse would put up much of a fight.

I'd pay $5 to watch him fight 50,000 wasps in a closed cage.

Is this the fight where Tyson will get floored by his opponent, die and never get recussitated? If so, I'm definately looking forward to this one. :)

He may be a complete idiot now, but he was a decent fighter before he got knocked the hell out by Buster Douglas. I wonder if he would've turned out like this if that never happened and that rape incident never sent him to jail. Maybe we could've been looking at one of the greatest fighters of all time. Whatever, enough speculation.

I hope Tyson brings back the ferocity that boxing has been lacking ever since it was Tyson, Holyfield, and Bowe :)

actually it was weird i heard one of his latess interviews and he sounded coherent and wasnt raving..quite unlike him.

I think all his troubles started when his first trainer and father figure died and Don King took over....

sad to see someone worth as much as him at one time reduced to this...but he brought it on himself

If Cus would've lasted until Mike hit 30 I think he would've turned out much better. He still wasn't nuts after the Douglas fight, but I'm sure it didn't help.
