who thinks tyson can regain the hw crown now

Tyson certainly can regain the crown but as much as I want him to, I don't think he is going to.

.....On a side note. Has anyone ever wondered why most of Tyson's fans on these boards are 21 or younger? Hell, alot of them are like 15-17. Why does he seem to corner the market on the teeny bopper crowd? Young impressionable kids today. Was it Tysons punchout? Most of his fans were like 3-5 years old or not even born when he was in his supposed prime. thats very interesting, it seems as some off his biggest fans are young boys like miketyson jr who dont realy knows boxing but has seen some tyson high lights and got impessed. easy mistake to do. afterall tyson is the biggest star in that generation.

Part of me hopes that he doesnt finish his career as Joe Louis did, sliding unconcious through the ropes to the ring apron. But then again, I believe that a bigger part of me does. Rockin' :boxing: Thats a little sick man...

If tyson goes the george foreman route and seriously dedicates himself to training and gets his peek a boo style working again and starts off fighting tomato cans to get his confidence back and works his way up to fighting contenders as he becomes fitter and gets rid of the ring rust then he can beat any of the current champs with ease but he would have to fight every month to get his sharpness back and to build on it but sadly tyson dosne't have the desire to do this he is a broken man, tysons has the speed and power to becme champ but he dosent have the desire or determination and once a fighter is fighting for the sole purpopse of paying their debts there are not going to have the motivation to train to put themselves in a position to get the title back .

Tyson's power has always been overrated, IMO his handspeed is where the KOs came from. Even early in his career, there were a few guys that stood in front of him and just let theirselves be hit. Even then, some of them took bodyshot after bodyshot, for much longer than one would think they could if the Tyson myth ever had a chance of being a reality. Remember the Neilsen fight? Tyson never came close to hurting Brian to the body, in spite of "intentionally" coming in at almost 240 lbs. to gain leverage on his punches. The only crown Tyson is gonna get is in a bottle that comes in a purple bag lol

Tyson does not have the desire to become a champion anymore. Therefore, he will never be a champion again, whether he has the skills or not. I've been saying that for years. It's too bad, he is one of my favorites of all time.

C'mon.....if Tyson coldcocks Tarver (a lt. heavy) in quick fashion....all of his nuthuggers will start claiming "HE'S BACK". A victory over Tarver will prove nothing, but will get his loonies going nuts, all over again. I never said anything about that, all I said was Tyson is capable of KOing a blown up, 37 year old light heavyweight.

Tyson is done but I still believe beating Tarver is possible. C'mon.....if Tyson coldcocks Tarver (a lt. heavy) in quick fashion....all of his nuthuggers will start claiming "HE'S BACK". A victory over Tarver will prove nothing, but will get his loonies going nuts, all over again.

My point is.... He's so shot, even his once awesome power has lessened. "He just needs to be dedicated". First of all...it will take a lot more than that. Secondly, he is mentally finished, & has been for a long time. He's not turning that around. Impossible. Tyson is done but I still believe beating Tarver is possible.

i saw the fight also i ordered it. the only thing mcbride did was take tyson's shots and put all his weight on him. i still got the fight on my digital video recorder. Taking Tyson's shots is all he needed to do. I told everyone that Tyson's power was starting to fade after he fought Williams. Just a few years ago Williams and McBride would of both went down from Tyson's punches. Come on now he lost to Kevin McBride. No matter if he was winning on the scorecards or not he still lost. Tyson is finished.

Isn't Tyson supposed to be the hardest puncher ever (never was) ? How come he couldn't KO a big ol' stiff he was apparently working over ? He is 39 years old and has been fighting for like 20 years. He is past his prime, and a 6'5 280lb. man is hard to hit in the head.

You know you are completely shot when that's all it takes to beat you. Tyson, sorry guys, will be nothing more than a steppingstone should he continue to fight. yeah i know thats the sad part. :(

I have it on tape also. McBride just survived and Mike got tired. Thats all that happened I agree. Its not like McBride beat Tyson up. Isn't Tyson supposed to be the hardest puncher ever (never was) ? How come he couldn't KO a big ol' stiff he was apparently working over ?

He looked like shit and was getting outworked. I saw the fight. It's no rumor. i saw the fight also i ordered it. the only thing mcbride did was take tyson's shots and put all his weight on him. i still got the fight on my digital video recorder.

i think right now he could beat all the heavyweight around now except wlad klit He could not beat Mcbride or Williams what would give you an indication he can beat any of the top 10 right now even Ruiz.......He is done it was a nice career its over let it go....

That ship sailed a long time ago.
