    Mike Tyson

    Mike Tyson was sentenced to six years in prison in 1992 and served only three years because of good behavior.
    Tyson was convicted Feb 10th 1992. On March 26th of that year he was sentenced. He was released March 1995.
    5 months later he was back in the ring against Peter Mcneeley - 36 (30 KO's) -1, which was on the 19th of August, 1995.

    Floyd Mayweather jr

    * 2 months in a detention center.

    * Lost 15 pounds of muscle.

    How come Mike Tyson after serving 3 years in jail, fought 5 months later?
    Why can't Floyd?

    Thoughts?

    You should probably ask Mike and Floyd.

    He was still great shape after prison, But I hardly saw him do that cool thing when he bends his upper frame side to side and ****. Awesome stuff, I rarely see Boxers who do that type of movement.

    Honestly, Tyson is just cut from a different cloth. Call a spade what it is. Roberto Duran could've done a three year bid and fought immediately too. These mother****ers don't care, have a few loose bolts and they'll take the money too.
