Pretty tough to watch. McBride is the type of bum Tyson would of decimated inside a minute back in the 80's.
He was also "shot" mentally as well. In these last fights once he realized he couldnt KO them he got frustrated and started trying to break arms, head butt etc. There's no way it could have gone 12 even if he did have the stamina, cause he just didnt have the aptitude.
Relive the magic? WTF? McBride would not hsve even got into the ring to face Tyson back in the day, so the debate about how quickly Tyson would have taken him out is academic! The fight would have been won before it even started! Losing to McBride didn't just show how shot Mike was as a boxer, but also showed his desire was shot aswell. No way he makes a comeback, EVER! One of the best HW's of all time! Pure class!
Very depressing. What is great about this fight is Tyson's post-fight interview. He's always had a way of seeing right to the heart of a thin and expressing it properly. A great legend. Shame he had to go out like that. But he had to go out like that.
