    We all know how bad ring rust and inactivity is for a boxer. Especially a retired boxer.

    In the case of Mike Tyson, it is far worst because Mike's true prime was like 1988ish.

    Anyways now it's 2012. Tyson have went through a lot. He went from ****** to gentle muslim to crazed ear bitter to reformed Muslim to child eater to Lewis victim to Zombie to obese to actor to skinny actor to current day Mike.

    So Mike's last competitive bout was like in 2004. That is a 8 year absence from the ring and he's like skinny now and weak.

    Cotto-PAC AND mAYWEATHER have been mostly in gyms and are still fighting as professionals at the highest level.


    Anyways. If you give Mike Tyson a week of training. One week only.

    Can he still beat Floyd or Cotto or Pac 1v1? 12 rounds.
    No catch weight or weight limit.

    Tyson weighs mores like 190-200, and he hasn't let himself go as much as other retired boxers have. He obviously despite being retired for 7 years has some of his power still, and he was doing those exhibitions in what 07-08? So despite this being a really ******ed fantasy scenario, I would have to go with Tyson for obvious reasons.....

    I can knock out current Tyson.
    I'm a Heavyweight Amatur. 2 fights in only, but still a HW.
    This means I can KO Floyd and Pac and Cotto. I already weight 220+, my aim is 240 like Kubrat Puluv.

    Wladimir is lucky he's getting old, because in 9 years I will Ko him.
