    Dude Tyson probably had guards watching his ass every second in the can. I seriously doubt anyone tried to fight him or even had the opportunity. plus I imagine people would show him respect in the can. Plus he could literally kill anyone he wanted to with his fists given the chance.

    If the story is true the guys said the guards arranged the fights but thats if this is even true

    as for not fighting out of respect it was said these guys were skin heads meaning neo nazi kkk guys whod love to fight a guy like Tyson

    plus in jail u wanna be the baddest man in the joint this is your chance, i know any sane person knows its a bad idea to fight tyson but these are prisoners not High school grads

    I think guys like kirkland and margarito would beat 99% of the population in the joint to a pulp. So you know How I feel about a Heavyweight against your average inmate!

    I made a thread about this in the lounge. Welters dont walk around at 147, especially a big one. Id say margarito walks around at 175-180. Imagine him or kirkland in a street fight. I feel they would **** a 6ft 5, 250 pound inmates world up!! Being big and strong doesnt mean **** when you fight a trained KILLER!

    iknow they dont walk around at fighting weight but i mean they are trained killers in an organized scenario with rules, i mean these inmates atleast the tough ones have been in plenty of fights, they elbow head butt bite hit low wrestle people and take the fight to the ground

    im not saying boxers cant win a street fight but its whole different story

    Faiir point. Regarding that lobby fight, i remember reading an account that the two guys started with mike by saying your tough with your fists but we fight with guns (or something along those lines) and mike laid into them. one of the dudes was interviewed and said something to the effect that he hit like he had a steel fist. of course he didn't kill them 'stone dead' and they probably weren't the baddest dudes around but he did knock one unconscious and beat em both pretty bad (and they at least threatened to have guns). This was a tyson 8 or 10 years down the road from prison and likely out of shape. That said i don't doubt there are some 'gifted' freak fighters in prison that could get to mike on the ground

    :lol:

    Those guys in prison, liftweights an fight all the time, i could see both of those boxers getting beat by guys there size, let alone some monsters in prison. I talked to excons, that told me they would fight there cell mates all the time, just for training, an in case somthing went down.

    Now just cause your a prisoner does not make you a bad ass, but the ones that are, i doubt get beat by kirkland an margarito, besides a punchers chance.

    It's entirely possible, but we won't ever know for sure.

    your average 'little bigger, little taller' dude ain't gonna be able to headlock a 28 year old tyson to the floor in a no holds fight where tyson is thinking it's do or die. Tyson was a supremely athletic and strong guy for his size and he had great survival instincts to go along with it. your gonna need more than a little size.

    your not wrong its just these prisoners atleast the tough ones whod actually take on Tyson have street fighting skills and arent restricted to boxings rules they bite head but elbow hit the balls etc

    its not impossible to belive a big strong guys with fight experience couldnt wrestle a guy to the ground

    yes tyson is a atg boxer but not wrestler
