    The 42-year-old disgraced champion stayed for nearly the entirety of Pacquiao’s workout, following the Filipino ring icon’s every move, whether he was skipping rope, working the mitts, hitting the double end, or pounding the speed ball.


    He left just as Pacquiao was about to wrap up his final workout.
    Roach said Tyson still had no tickets to the fight but Pacquiao took care of that, providing four tickets to the man who was once the youngest heavyweight champion of the world.






    Pacman is a nice guy... :deal

    Ya, I hope so.


    And why do they have to say "The 42-year-old disgraced champion", wouldn't "former champion" be enough? It's not like people don't know who Mike Tyson is. Give the guy a break.

    Funny thing is, I just read on another site that Mike is picking De La Hoya by decision. A very nice thing for Pac to do and I hope Mike is cooling down. He has the fame to earn a good living without all the crap.

    Nice thing to have Mike at the fights,he always was watching fights early in his career,then ''The Baddest Man on the Planet'' happened and he lost it.Now I see he is back at the fights.

    Pac is top notch class as a person. He constantly distributes money to peopple in his small hometown south of Philippines, and we are taking of several hundred of thousands of $. He also gives reward for those in his team who can reduce weights (for their own good).

    Pac is very religious and whether I believe his religion if true or not is irrelevant. His religiion drives him to do good to people everywhere.

    Great great guy, trully admire him in and out of the ring.

    sure it would, if he can take Tysons left hook flush then eating Oscars hook would be like a Paulie Maliginaggi jab in comparison

    You know what the funny thing about people and their sympathy for Tyson is. Many people would feel sorry for him if tomorrow they found out that he had to take a job as construction worker to make a living. When at the same time, that same person is banging nails also for a living, but didn't have a hundred millions dollars flow through their bank account in the past 20 years. What great hearts all of you poor people have.

    I hope so but I am not betting on it. :oops:

    DLH is not as shot as most people think. Pac had difficulties getting past Morales' jabs..he will have nightmares with DLH.

    If the fight gets past 8 rounds, and Pac has not cuts, etc, I think he will win.

    Great point!:good

    I've never heard anyone feel sorry for a class fighter like La Chiquita Gonzalez for being a butcher these days.

    Hell, I don't feel sorry. It's better than getting your head pounded in.

    He paid them a one time amount.

    And I bet if they come to him and ask sincerely, Pac will give them money in a heartbeat. He gives money to strangers FFS.

    And the good thing is Pac is now even more devoted to his legit wife and family.
