    Tyson gets sparked in the first round by anyone in the top 30 that wants to end it in the first round..I mean it’s a given, a 100% reality. He gets ****ed up by Dave Allen no problem

    Ironically, Danny Williams is probably the only active HW fighter out there who we've heard of, that Tyson might actually be able to beat now !

    Nobody in boxing knows how to deal with mikes peekaboo style, he would catch any of them and he can go 3 rounds no problem.

    It's not even mike's style it's cus d amatos and it's been dealt with fine. Peek a boo is very effective unless the larger stronger guy stands his ground and refuses to back up. That's how liston beat Patterson twice and how douglas and holy beat tyson.

    But more to ur point how do u know Mike still has his old power? Mike wasn't a natural puncher like big george his kos came from sharp fast combination punches. He didn't even do that for the latter half of his career but you're convinced he's still got it in his mid 50s?

    People need to watch Tyson's last fight against McBride. His power wasn't there. It's not going to get any better with a 15 year lay off.

    How do you know that? He’s been hitting the pads and people think prime Tyson’s back lol. It’s funny how easy it is to fool people

    Yes, nobody in the heavyweight division currently has the smarts of Sugar Kevin McBride.

    If Mike throws caution to the wind and goes all in throwing bombs at the opening bell then yes he has a "chance" but you could say the same with any power puncher.

    But if Mike doesn't take out his opponent after that first round he's probably gassed and an easy target from then on.

    I beg to differ with most of you.

    Months ago when Tyson's videos came out I said if he can do that for 2 rounds he can take out half the division.

    I stand by that.
