    I thought he said before that it was because of how dirty Holyfield was...

    Since his retirement after the fight with that Irish boy, he has come to terms with alot of things in his life, I think the full time required to give this sport has not given him enough time to address some of these life long issues he has been dealing with which is exactly why you would see him bite Holyfield or try to break bothas arm......

    I think Honestly Tyson is trying to better himself, and make good with God before his time comes... I think he realizes now that he really was appreciated and respected in this game and that weather he like it or not little kids did look up to him....
    I know I did...

    Perhaps but I think the reason is that Evander headbutted him and when someone fauls and doesnt get penalized you tend to want to retaliate. Same goes to Golota and Bowe when Bowe was hitting behind the head.

    he may have said that but watch the fight and see how many headbutts he landed...not making excuses for the lose...buts its the truth...every fighter he has fought has complained of him using his head as a third or first weapon

    Just finished watching the interview. Very good BTW. It's obvious that he's still struggling with his demons and is still under some sort of medication. Does anyone think that medication has anything to do with his weight gain or has he just gotten fat in his old age? BTW his wife is a dime.

    As a citizen who's never been charged with, much less convicted of, a felony, I think I have the right to say a person who WAS convicted of a felony (****) is not a "good person." Not to mention his violent confrotations (the fender-bender incident) and blatant racism towards caucasians, I'd say he's not a "good person."

    I loved watchin Mike Tyson knock people the **** out just as much as the next boxing fan, but he ain't no Mother Theresa.

    So GTFO with this "who are you to judge" bull****.

    Mike has a history of fouling when things aren't going well (as well as outburts of temper/crazy behaviour), Holyfield has a history of headbutting. I'd take my chance that somehow the two go together.

    Prime Tyson didn't have a history of doing that. I think after the Holyfield fight is when Tyson fouls alot of times when things don't go his way. Ever since Holyfield shave his head bald thats when he started using his head as the third weapon.

    i wonder if it is due the recent meeting with holyfield where both shook hands!

    Any way it was due to headbutts IMO!

    He bullied Mike Tyson..

    Mike Tyson was a user of rough house tatics himself, he used his elbows against many fighters..up in close.

    Mike Tyson would try and break people's arms..

    Thats boxing..

    Evander Holyfield was a bigger and better bully, no matter how big and strong...

    Evander Holyfield always handled himself, against Riddick Bowe..Lennox Lewis and whoever..!!!

    He threw Mike Tyson around like a rag doll...:lol:

    Like when Mike Tyson tried to break Evander Holyfields arm in the rematch...

    Tyson doesn't give a **** anymore and doesn't want to add anymore fuel to the fire.
