    Fresh out of jail decided to drop to cruiser weight for the rest of his career?

    Forget the money, forget all the reason it never would have happened.. Just think what if ..

    How does everyone see that playing out? Discuss........

    Only thing is, he's a natural heavyweight, even with his length. He would be drained, but say for arguments sake he could make it.

    Pretty obvious he'd mow through the cruiserweights that were around at the time, like Alfred Cole, Nate Miller, Fabrice Tiozzo, Virgill Hill.

    The only real marketable fights at the time would be the likes of Toney, Jones, Hill, Hearns. And Jones/Hearns would be asbolutely decimated by Mike, even with the jokesters he had as a team, he'd sparkle them.
