    lol i mean if the fight is RIGHT NOW... Tyson lost a lot of fat and thats because he is training... And they both have serious stamina problems but they can punch! Tyson is my hero just because he destroyed bigger fighter than him all the time but right now I don't know, Briggs is a monster for 3-4 rounds just like Tyson... This could be a very good 6 rounds fight on the undercard of Mayweather vs Paquiao in New York :p

    You need to chill. Tranquilo, my brother. Tyson isn't training for a fight. Pacquiao/Mayweather isn't even finalized yet, and it probably won't be in New York. Also, IF (BIG IF) Tyson made a comeback, it wouldn't be on an undercard for ANYBODY, and he wouldn't waste his time against Shannon Briggs.

    Tyson lost to McBride, and that was when he was mildly interested in fighting (very very mildly). I don't think Tyson has any desire left, and even if he did, he's not only old, he'd be super duper rusty. If this fight happened today, Tyson would not be able to defend against the Shannon Briggs strut. Briggs scores a TKO, when Tyson gets bored and quits.

    If this fight happened in the 80's - 90's, Tyson knocks Briggs out.

    Briggs size advantage would be the difference, I suspect Briggs would get an early KO likely by the third round. Would have been excitting to see the Briggs that fought Lennox fight Tyson too bad they never crossed paths then.
