Please people, how many times does this need to be stated. Mike Tyson has not been the same fighter since before he was incarcerated in 1991!! When he was released from jail, he was still talented enough to win the title again but look at who he faced (Frank Bruno, Bruce Seldon)..then he met Holyfield who exposed him as being a shell of what he once was. As much as I cannot stand Vitali Klitschko, even he would destroy the MIke Tyson of today. NONEof the HW's of today would have been able to carry his spit bucket in 1988 but that Tyson doesn't exist now and never will again...

I agree, 100%.
Yeah but there still is the name that will pull in the bucks,even a Holy/Tyson 3 would be a big one in 05.

His PPV against Danny Williams did not generate much interest. I think they reported about 140,000 buys.
