I checked and didnt see a thread about this (hate duplicate threads!!) so I thought I'd give the shout-out on Tyson vs. McBride. Shotime sent an email today saying they are replaying that fight Sat. June 18th at 9pm (EST). Looks like they intend to go head to head with HBO's Tarver-Johnson rematch! :confused: Anyway, for those that care......
Sounds like fun, I hope you and your family have a great time...let everyone on boxing scene know how it was when you get back. :cool:
thank you and I will ;)
He's supposed to be there, and ST knows how much I admire him. So, I guess anythings possible. I do know I'll meet all the guys that are fighting that night, and AnnWolf said she wants to meet me and my kid and give us autographed photos..cant get any cooler than that. And to think, my biggest dream was just to one day be able to take my daughter to a live fight..and now she's gonna meet all of them, have great seats, ride to the fight with a police escort..the whole works! And experience she'll never forget..being able to give that to her makes me so happy!

I agree (hopefully will meet him tomorrow too!!!) but alot of people are putting him down because of his refusal to quit..and some say it's damaging his legacy. I'm sure Tyson will end up in the IBHOF, and I guess in the long run thats the 'golden dream', to be recognized and remembered as a 'once upon a time' great fighter. I dont see him having any trouble getting inducted..probably the first time he's considered (five yr's after retirement I think)

Greatness can never be taken away though, Holyfield is an all time great no matter what.

I taped it that night but I havn't watched it, its like an Ali fan not wanting to watch his fight with Trevor Berbick. Its just kind of sad to see an old great get embaressed.

....Hey, have fun at the fights BTW!!!! Who do you like in the Tarver/Johnson matchup?
thanks! I'm going with Johnson this time..almost got to talk to him on the phone last night but I wasnt home when ST called :( but we will be going to the post-fight party being held for Johnson so I guess thats cool too. (Right now I'm fighting to keep my internet conn. up..been at it for an hour and I dont have time for it today of all days!!!!!!)
We'll post photos of the big event and stuff for you guys!
I'm so excited I could scream..and my kid is climbing the walls! :D
dont blame you...I was thinking since he insists that was the last, alot of Tyson fanatics might wanna tape it or something...who knows :confused:
