    Only success he could do is financial success. His Comeback fight would draw crowds and tarnish his legacy

    I dont think it would tarnish his legacy just like Ali lossing to Berbick didnt. I think its time for a Tyson-Mcneely rematch! :happy

    Tyson was done after Holyfield over ten years ago. After that he had no career defining wins. Botha, Golota later turned to a NC, Ettienne, and Nielsen were his best wins after that loss. Tyson did not have the skill anymore or the work wthic or the conditioning. After the Holyfield fight he was riding on his punch. That only gets you so far. Lennox and Danny Williams killed him and when the going got tough he quit against McBride. In the 80's he had amazing combos to the body and head great weaving movement and defense. He was the total package and if he stuck true to the style and work who knows. But he had that self destructive trait. Like Tyson even admitted in the docmentary he had lost his killer instincet and once that goes it is over for a bully kind of slugger.

    Tyson could knock Haye out even now. Solis stopped Haye in the amateurs.

    He was on Sky Sports News yesterday, And asked if he would consider a comeback and just laughed it off saying he "was fat". Was a pretty good interview, he seems at peace with life now:thumbsup

    I bet if Ali called him out he'd consider it... imagine the PPV sales!
