Mike Tyson planning a comeback.....

Discussion in 'World Boxing Forum' started by dudemcdudeson, Mar 5, 2010.


  1. I heard from a reliable source that Mike Tyson is planning to fight again with Don King as his promoter. I heard they will have him fight 3-5 tomato cans and move him into a world title shot. He's currently training at Johnny Tocco's gym in Las Vegas. What do you all think?????

    I would hate to see him in the ring, however I'd happily put him in against some tomato cans, he'll probably sell out some 10,000+ arenas with a decent undercard/main event, earn some $$ and get him out before he gets hurt.

    Do not manouver him into title fight ffs!
     
  5. I wanna know who this reliable source is lol.

    I can go drive by Tocco's gym and try and confirm or deny that he's training there. That place is a ****in tiny hole in the wall of a gym, I'd think he could find a much better place to train.

    Don King shot down rumors of Tyson-Holyfield III. He was a little less forthright about whether Tyson might be coming back at all.

    For Tyson's sake, I hope he isn't. Or if he does, that it's just for one fight. Man seems to have finally found some inner peace. No need to ruin that just to make a couple of paydays.

    45 year old Holmes was still a handfull for the 90s HW division, 45 year old Tyson still gives most of todays division fits - FACT.

    tyson a few years back lost to danny williams and kevin mcbride..sorry he will not give the division any fits

    he could knock out some (worse than mcbride and williams) tomato cans Throw him in with Cliff Couser or Cerrone Fox or somethin

    about what exactly? is don king still the force he once was? he ruled the hw scene and went right back to ali vs foreman but not any more. the man is nearly 80 ffs. goldenboy is the major force in boxing now and tyson will NEVER get in the ring again EVER against anybody with any credabilty. go back to sleep you muppet
