    It would bring a buzz back in the sense that a lot of casual fans would be expecting Tyson to roll back the years and come out like he used to.

    I hope he stays retired, hes doing ok, he fell out of love with boxing a long time ago. He has 0 reason to risk his health.

    I honestly think George Foreman would fare better than Tyson at this point

    No, this would not bring any 'excitement' back to the Heavyweight Division. Do you not remember how awful and boring Tyson was against McBride? :rofl:patsch

    This just shows how dead the division truly is. If you have to resort to bringing back an iconic fighter who hasn't been in his prime in 25 years, just to sell a fight. Something is seriously wrong with King, and I hope this is a joke.

    Tyson should of never went to jail for ****, Don king should have. He's been raping Tyson for years, and getting away with it.

    Say what you want about King, but this dude is a born promoter. There's a reason he's still worth 9 figures after all the bull****.

    king is trying to avenge the beatdown he took in front of the Beverly hills hotel when Tyson got out of prison. King the thief deserved that beatdown no avenging necessary.

    If King offers to Tyson and Stiverne a lot of money, its possible that they agree to make a deal. Don King is natural negotiator and thief, who is capable to change people mind.

    Sadly, I would not be surprised if this fight is made if Stiverne wins. Tyson wants money and King will snipe this fight, and Stiverne would use it as his non-mandatory

    There is 0 chance of Tyson coming back for any amount of money. He was beyond shot 9 years ago against a giant punching bag. He's not as dumb as he looks.
