i don't think he can be a legitimate force, contender or whatever at this stage, but to say any hw can put him on his ass is absurd. he can't withstand a klitchko onslaught at this point obviously, but there's only one of those (and maybe a handful that can come close to that type of offensive firepower) and he's not gonna be in there with kltchko. he ain't gonna need that "special spark" versus a lot of guys he'd likely be in with if he takes another fight.
no, but this fight would make big buzz and tyson needs a money! Maybe Tyson wants to fight just big fights where he can win like Holyfield Mesi rematch botha! And then retire with some money, If he will beat them! I think he has goten smarter!:hey
Exactly, this fight would be huge, because it appeals to the average fan. Both Tyson and Holyfield are 2 of the biggest PPV draws in all of boxing, put them together you got everyone coming out of the wood work to watch this fight, even people that normally dont watch boxing. Its really a no lose fight for everyone, Tyson makes a ton of money, as does Holyfield, and we get to see the Heavyweight divsion get some much needed attention again.
if i had to pick 1 fight i wud like to se tyson in it would be him against valuev now tht would be intresting if tyson did hve something left in him but he doesnt he is gone he has lost his killer instinct n even holyfield will hve him on his back within 3 rounds tht is if they r not using oxygen tanks in bewteen rounds , however started this thread is looking for hope which is not there n thanks dan b for agreing least somebody sees sense
I refuse to line that mans pockets anymore. The way he has wasted money is a joke. The whole reason he took his beating from Lewis was to sort his finances out but yet here he is waiting for the public to hand him yet another meal ticket. I've lost all sympathy for the man & I don't believe he'll ever change as much as tries to fool the public into thinking he has.
Thats youre rights to do so! But I'm a Tyson fan And would watch him fight anybody! And If he fought Holyfield for 3rd time I shurely would watch it! And i think even you would watch!
The heavyweight division doesn't need this kind of attention, and besides, this wouldn't bring attention to the division it would only bring attention to Tyson and Holyfield. The closet boxing fans would come back out thinking this if for the undisputed title and be completely surprised when you tell them Tyson is 40 and Holyfield is 45. If anyone supports this based on nostalgia, take back your support and go play Fight Night Round 3; you'll get your nostalgic fix and the heavyweight division won't have to suffer through yet another bout between the division's most elite recycled products. P.S. Can't enjoy your millions if you're spending it on life-support.:-(
I don't think fighting Mesi and Holyfield is desperate, these fights would make him big money and I think it would be smarter to fight these shot fighters other than geat badly beaten by top 10 guy and make same money!
perhaps, but don't you think that it would be better if people watched the fight for good reasons? cause as it is, people would watch the fight, but they would watch it out of tragic fascination, not out of any expectation of a "great" fight.
Well I'm a boxing fan & think this is bad for boxing. I certainly wouldnt pay to watch it. I've wasted enough money watching him in pathetic side shows. People should boycott these events & spend their money watching up & coming talent. The future of our sport not some bonfire of vanities.
evrey fighter needs tht spark when fighten, you gotta be knowing to urself you can beat the guy , n yea he would get placed right on his arse!! dont be so blinded by your desire to see him back in the ring! he will get beaten up by any respectable heavyweight he just is a boxer who has got head problems n life problems n he belives the only sullotion is to box his recovery rate will be terrible , his body conditioning will be terrible , tyson is a joke n ANYBODY WHO WOULD PAY TO SEE HIM LOSE again is a joke!
I have to agree that it would make attention just to holy and Mike but also I think avarage fan would be interested who is the best if not these two! (I hope you understood what I meant english is not my first languege!)
