    nothing to be ashamed about. two legends in the ring. Ya it's pretty sad, but who cares. If they wanna fight, let em. I'd rather watch this then klit-shko vs. some other bum.

    The guy on the lat machine is Tyson. Green shirted guy is a strengh/conditioning coach who has trained besides Kobe Bryan and Fernando Vargas many celebs/pro athletes/pro bodybuilders. His office is at Gold's in Venice CA where also the picture was taken. Very nice guy who knows what he is doing.

    One of the most CORRUPT states in the middle east and where a bunch of pathetic, thieving American expatriate go to escape paying taxes and evade prosecution.

    Well Holyfield might win this in 2 rounds. Tyson has not fought anyone for years, and Evander at least makes fights competitive.

    I would watch it. Pay for it even.

    Anyone who makes the claim they would not at least watch this fight needs their head checked. You will have motha****as from Japan to Russia to Brazil watching that ****. Don't be fooled with your arrogant, self-proclaimed expertise on the new boxers out there. Mike Tyson is still the most popular boxer in the world right now - Bar none.

    This fight will sell.

    Third time's a charm.

    Mike in 8.

    I agree - this fight will sell, especially in the UAE.

    I don't agree that Mike will win!!!!!!

    Maybe their doing it more like an exhibition match, because UAE is having trouble getting new tourist(which is the only money making of the country, since Dubai Oil is already used up).

    34 million each:shock:

    these filthy rich arab sheiks really should blow there money on other things, anyway as long as both guys bag that much cash to ease their money problems, i'm ok with that.

    If Holyfield captured the WBA title, the fight would have made much more sense. Just imagine, Holyfield - Tyson for the WBA heavyweight championship with the winner getting a shot Klitcshko.

    Anyway, it just makes $ sense now. I am OK with it though because I prefer theses 2 guys fighting each other than against some young fighters.
