    Tyson should replace Kellerman. If not, when Harold Lederman retires, give that job to Tyson. Back to you Jim!

    And replace James Lampley with James Toney so we can actually hear Tyson say "back to you Jim".

    I dont think he sounds soft, he sounds like a guy in his mid 40s who realizes he is no longer the 20 year old killing machine he used to be. Most people have multiple careers in their lifetimes and Mikes boxing career has been done for a long time. Hes basically been an entertainer and media personality for the better part of 20 years now.

    Replace MAX KELLERMAN???? :twisted::patsch :admin:fire

    Kellerman is one of teh GREATEST commentators of All time IMO.

    Great Commentators -

    1 - Old Foreman

    2 - Lenny Lewis

    3 - Max Kellerman


    I ****ing loving Kellerman cos he says Lennox-Tyson would ALWAYS of been a Huge-Mismatch, cos Lennox is way too big for him to beat. :thumbsup


    Foreman Hoooook! :hat

    I think he should go into acting, especially comedy. He was very funny in the Hangover. part of the humour is because its so out of character for this guy who was once the baddest man on the planet.

    Mike Tyson being the baddest man on the planet was always just a persona that was fed by the fans.

    If you could look through the surface, you knew there was always a very strong, soft natured and spiritual side of Mike just asking for a chance to permanently surface.

    It's always weird for fans to see athletes drastically change when they've perceived them a certain way for a long time.

    Have you guys ever seen how Darren Daulton (ex-Philadelphia Phillies catcher) has become ?

    Totally agree with you, people tend to forget that he was kind of forced into boxing from a young age, it was either that or prison/get killed.

    He was the little kid with the lisp everyone used to pick on, finally now hes found peace in his life
