    Considering the 300+ pound blob he was just a couple years or so ago, that's really tremendous work by him and much better to see.

    A slimmer body won't make those relexes any younger or remove the punches taken though. I believe him if he's not coming back, good shape and good boxing shape are two different things. Just glad he's doing better.

    Good to see he's looking after himself. I seriously doubt this means he's making a comeback to the ring. Maybe he's training/excercising for the simple goal of remaining in good health. I sincerely hope it is the latter.

    But again, considering the **** he's been through, as a Tyson fan it's really comforting knowing he's happy with himself and life in general.

    Keep it up Mike!

    He looks in better shape then in 2006 against McBride. I hope he doesn't come back though.
     
  4. He looks very clean and sober. From recent quotes of his (and that photo) he seems to be heavily involved with his religion.

    He's not coming back. He's just staying in shape. He just came from performing his pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia. Good to see him sorted out.

    I saw an interview about Tyson's new show on Animal Planet about his pigeons. He mentioned that after his daughter's tragic death he adopted a vegan diet and started walking two hours a day to lose 100 lbs. He also has been fasting for as long as 40 days as preparation for his pilgrimage to Mecca.

    Glad he lost weight.....he looked so fat in The Hangover movie, but I'm happy that he's in great shape and that he seems at peace finally.

    He looks lighter than ever.

    Looks lighter than when he was in his prime.

    Could be looking after himself or he could be on something thats making him lose weight.

    You never know with him.
