    Could it be that maybe... just maybe... Moorer might be a better trainer than Tyson? I don't know, I'm just throwing the suggestion out.

    Tyson is unpredictable, and thus shouldn't be anything more than an attraction, assistant, motivator or Maybe he could use his name to make money, IMO still Roach could have gave him a chance.

    Hopefully Moorer's training habits don't rub off on Pac.

    yeah no doubt moorer probly is a better trainer but tyson could have brought more attraction and that means more money and roach still could have brought moorer in

    Moorer's apparently rather good as a trainer. He's been flying under the radar, but working on a lot of big Roach fights recently. Apparently (got this third-hand, so I don't know how reliable it is), he's often a stand-in for Roach at the gym... not really a position to trust Tyson with!

    Well I said Tyson culd use his name or be a motivator, I just wouldn't make him an important part of the training camp.

    I think Tyson would make a great trainer. I doubt this decision was anything personal.

    It was a smart move. Not worth having a guy like Tyson in camp. Even if he were a better coach than more he has too much baggage.

    The least he could do is allow Tyson to spar with Manny. I mean, Manny is gonna need to get used to fighting a thicker, stronger, opponent than he's used to.

    Oh ****, but Mike would just get KO'ed right through his head gear in eight seconds. Plus that'd be embarrassing.

    I do feel sorry for Tyson. I think tyson should get into commentating like Lennox Lewis does. Tyson's knowledge of the sport and its history is incredible.

    I love Tyson and feel well sorry for him. He genuinely does look to be trying to sort himself out

    Tyson can't talk as well as Lewis.
