1. Did Tyson really blew his knee out in the fight with Danny?

2. How credible is the information that Tyson injured his leg? Was the injury serious?

3. Would Danny have beaten the Tyson that fought Lewis?

I do believe Tyson injured his knee why would he be so explosive in the first and then all of a sudden calm down in the rest of the fight

Tyson definitely buckled his knee up. Danny was about to be blown away.

Williams isn't that great of a fighter. Whether it was the Tyson that fought Lewis or not, I don't see him winning. And as much as the media actually dislikes Tyson, if the information weren't credible, it would have been brought to light LONG ago.

Tend to agree with FrankJack. But watching that fight, yes Tyson was particularly impressive in the first rd and didn`t do as well in teh 2nd and 3rd BUT....he won those rounds and was still beating Williams until the fight was stopped. Thats why i don`t buy the extent of teh injury. Tyson able to still fight enough to win the rounds and only when Williams hit him with the combo in rd 4 was Tyson in any kind of trouble. Also, recall Tyson looking tired and exhausted at the start of rd 4. I do believe Williams had that fight regardless of the injured leg. Its one of those we`ll never know for sure situations but going off Tyson`s performance in the 2nd and 3rd rounds ( and he did well ) I can`t atribute the loss to the injured Leg. Tyson looked shot at the start of the 4th round, not injured.

see
he did fan freakin tastic the first round
and only did good the rest of the foght till he got stopped
so we can choose to belive he was injured
or just chalk it up to old age
personaly
i do think he got injured
but thats just cuz i want him to make on more run for the title

Yeah I think he blew his knee, when he blew it, he not only grabbed it and looked at the ref, he also started back pedaling..

theres no question he blew out his knee, if he hadn't Danny Williams would be long forgotten about by now

If tyson and danny were to fight again...tyson would surely knock him out.

The word surely and Mike Tyson should never go together. Tyson is such a petulant child in teh ring anything can happen. His performances in the second Holyfield fight, Frans Botha fight suggest he is a bully who will break the rules if things don`t go his way. He may well beat Williams in a rematch but Williams may beat Tyson ( why not, he did it before? ). I personally would love to watch Tyson lose to a total misfit like Kevin mcBride or Gerald Nobles. Then i`d sit and laugh at him and watch him cry. ha ha ha

He did his knee - i have no doubt. He started using his arms to balance the hooks from that poiunt on (right arm down low to anchor him when he threw the left hook).

I've had an injured left knee (torn meniscus) so I'm talking from experience.

Tyson was not fit for the Lewis fight, never gave himself a chance.

He was in much better condition for Etienne. At 38, he's done.

I think Mike did hurt his knee vs. Danny Williams and I really think he can beat him in a rematch but what then? He would have to beat another top ten heavyweight before he gets a title shot against one of the champs. At the rate of his last fights it wouldn't be until the summer of 2006. Mike has been one of my favorite fighters but he isn't getting any younger and time is not on his side.

oh yeah you could tell he hurt his knee in the first round by the way he buckled then in the 3th round he was walking very heavy and could barley move in the ring

tyson was in better shape for williams than he was for lewis, so yes to the third question. the knee injury was genuine and it did hinder his movement a little, but he seemed to walk back to his dressing room ok. but tyson is 15 years past his prime, and even in his prime he was always a 4 round fighter. if you could get through those rounds he would'nt be nearly as powerful in the second part of the fight.

tyson has been and is more shot than kurt cobain. stop buying the hype it ended over ten years ago.

He has punching power but his body is too old and abused now.

tyson is shot, but i think he really did blow out his kneee and would have beaten williams... i dont think tyson could beat VK or byrd, but he might could beat ruiz or lame-ass brewster

I think he tweaked his knee....maybe sprained or something. Nothing serious. The guy is shot, and I think he was looking for an easy way out. I don't know if Danny would have beat the Tyson that Lennox fought.....Tyson didn't show much that night but he was healthy. On the other hand, Williams didn't show me much last Saturday to make me think he could ever beat another heavyweight at anytime. He was flat out terrible.....maybe the worst heavyweight title bout contender I have ever seen live! He did nothing but get pounded for several rounds, never ever making the fight competetive.

Tyson has become a 4 round fighter. Gone is the hunger & the drive...the will to be the best on the planet. Mentally, he's a shot fighter. He realises that he will never be able to recoup the millions lost. He realises that he will never recoup his lost youth.

His lifestyle has killed him.

I still predict a violent end to the life of Mike Tyson. Either by his own hand, or by someone that really doesn't appreciate another person stomping on the hood of his car!

Tyson has been great in the first round and mediocre in the other rounds for YEARS. He apparently hurt his knee but not as bad as Finkel and crew said. He walked fine after the fight, and a few months later is jumping on the hoods of cars. A guy with a blown out knee just doesn't do that . . .

Tyson NEVER lost a fight!

The knock out against James Douglas was not legit because, james got to many counts during his own knowckdown
(comon don, mike lets all do the press conference and the count again 1..2..3)

Holyfield continually head butted Mike in their first fight and the ref said nothing about it.

In the second fight the holyfield would not continue the fight, only because he had a few "nicks on his ear", depriving tyson from his victory.

Against Lewis tyson did not loose because...because...because :confused:
Because Lewis is so jolly..so happy..so g--.
Meaning Tyson did not loose from a real man.

And well against Williams his knee was totally gone, and with only one leg left he almost got the heavyweight contender Williams out.

:D ;)

I agree with everything you said, Karma-worthy, my friend, Karma-worthy..

Oh yeah and the only reason he lost to Lewis was because Lewis was in a different weight division. Tyson is a heavyweight, Lewis is a super-heavyweight...He should be in the 250lb.+ division.

I'm pretty sure he is shot, that is why his promoter Sherry Finkel is saving him for a couple big pay days.

Of course he did. It's a well documented fact based on the verdicts of medical experts.
