http://img231.echo.cx/img231/9445/tysonlewis2340dx.jpg 234lbs Got an old fashioned ass whoopin
http://img231.echo.cx/img231/6818/tysonetienne225754dy.jpg 225 3/4lbs Wieghed under 230 and KOed opponent in 49 seconds
http://img231.echo.cx/img231/109/tysonwilliams2336ml.jpg 233lbs looked good in RD one but eventually sufferd KO loss
So the point Im tryin to make is if he can come in under 230 or so, McBride is dead, If over 230 he will tire quickly like in the Williams fight,and who knos what will happen, I think if he would have come in at 225 against Neilson he woulda got a early KO, He was 222 against Golota, then blew up to 239 against Nielson. If he was 225 or so against Lewis it woulda been more competitive. So I hope he can make it under 230, if not i dont see him competing with the Top heavys except Ruiz, and Toney who is overwieght himself. If he can make it to 225 and stay that way for a few fights, I think he can become champ again. And will!!
The man managed to blow over $200,000,000. I find it hard to worry about his retirement.
I am hoping this is one mistake he has learned from! I have my doubts given his history.
Nah I will not be buying it. I will however be watching the news eagerly! I would like to see him come back. This may be the first step, or yet another fall. We will see ;)
I at least want him to make some money for his retirement!

are people actually going to buy this joke of a fight?

The headbutt that caused that rat (too big to be a mouse) on Hassim's head came from a clash of heads when they were both lunging in. I remember seeing that clash of heads and thinking they both should have been KOd from that.
tyson gettin oldEr it ain't bout the weight. it bout da physique..if he looks great at 230 its cool..but if he got any sign of love handles like he had in all his losses including holyfield..he wont be mentally there...second holyfield fight he was ready but all kno what happened..i cant believe wut holyfield did to rahman with a headbut i woulda bit his ear off too
I've always been curious about this, does 5 pounds really make a difference? I really don't see how it's such a small amount?
The difference it makes is huge! Its all about training, commitment and dedication. If he is coming in even 5 pounds over what is premium weight, it clearly shows he has been compromising somewhere along the line which will cause headaches for him in the ring. Tyson is a party animal that is well known for missing his training sessions. The issue is that now he is way to old to be doing that and compromising when he has slowed by virtue of his age.

Yeah - right on. I think the weight tells a lot about his training schedule and if he is taking things seriously. He has almost lost his window of opportunity in the division. So lets hope that we see some positive signs before he steps into the ring.
I wonder how Jeff Fenech is going training him and keeping him to the schedule? Any inside info?
