Anyone read Holyfield's reply on the BOXING site that TALKs the sweet science??? Think the fight will be signed by late spring??
I hope it happens. I mean, I know the bout would be meaningless, but anything involving Tyson is entertaining to me, especially in the ring. :hey
it would be a joke. holyfield would brutely ko tyson in round 1. tyson in his last fight was kocked down and quit on the stool agianst kevin mcbride who was not even ranked ih the top 25 and holyfield just went 12 rounds with one of the top 2 or 3 hws in the world. tyson was right around his prime when he was savagely kod twice by a faded past his prime holyfield. tyson could get serverly hurt this time. they should not allow this fight to happen for tyson health sake.
I would order it in a second. I think it is a good sign that Holyfield is wanting the fight now. When people have asked him about it over the last several years, he has said that there was no point in the fight because his sole goal was to become the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world and that a Tyson fight wouldn't get him towards that goal. If he is willing to take the fight now, I pray it is because he has finally given up on the title goal and just wants a nice payday on his way out.
I'll watch it on youtube. Somehow, I think even HBO/Showtime/Whoever will not be interested enough to take this fight off the site.
Great! 2008 is shaping up to be the year of the "10 years too late" matches. I guess it has to have some catchy theme to follow up a great 2007 in boxing. First RJJ vs. Trinidad now this. What's next? George Foreman vs. Larry Holmes? Riddick Bowe vs. Lennox Lewis? No, I got it .... the rematch between De la Hoya and Whitaker! This is crazy, but I'll watch it anyway because boxing makes the world go round - sideshows and all...... If it does happen I hope they call it "Tyson vs. Holyfield III: Biting Off More Than You Can Chew"
Bruno would take a fight if offered and I'm sure there would be somewhere in the USA that would sanction it for a reasonable fee.
