Yes but not for a long time. Tyson in this day and age could walk right through john ruiz in the first round with not much effort, but if he went in there with a good opponent such as a Vitali Klitschko or someone who would be able to handle his punching power, then it would be a different story.
I know tyson dosent have the desire or dedication to become champ but dose tyson still have enough speed and power left to become champ ? .
tyson still has decent speed and good power, but not good enough to be champ...
well id like to see him fight byrd or ruiz
brewster would kill him,
and rahman...not sure yet
And this coming from someone who believes James Toney will clean up the division, it's not ;)
Coming from someone who thought Vitali did, it means very litte.
Toney is the best of a bad group, and stands a good chance of beating Raman and Byrd. I never said anything about 'cleaning up the division', but I'd certianly favor him over the other title holders.
The fact it bothers you people like a real proven fighter must sting, otherwise you wouldn't spend so much time crying about it.
You just clearly long to go back to the days when twice the hype was surrounding 1/10th the fighter. :rolleyes:
so if mike still has the speed and power he should be able to slay rahman.brewster,ruiz, klitschco, byrd and all those bums .{sigh}
But where is the transmission? :cool:
Oh WOW is that the most hilarious statement of the week.
:rolleyes:And this coming from someone who believes James Toney will clean up the division, it's not ;)
I think he can win the title again at the moment, he only needs to catch somebody with two or three bombs...and this is what they said before Tyson fought Williams and before he fought McBride. Wait a second.. I was one of those who was saying it :eek:
But the reality is, MIKE IS DONE! I accepted it, most of the boxing fans accepted it, even Mike Tyson himself acceted it. It's time for the rest of you nut huggers to face the reality as well.
I had the honour of meeting Mr Tyson yesterday in London. To have him look at you straight in the eye is a very strange experience. F*%k being the man who stands in a ring with him, old or not.....it's going to be a long time before there is anybody like Mike....I think he can win the title again at the moment, he only needs to catch somebody with two or three bombs, but i'd prefer to see him earn his money some other way..
I know tyson dosent have the desire or dedication to become champ but dose tyson still have enough speed and power left to become champ ? .Stupid question...
He does not have the Heart, nor the Stamina to be the champ..
Speed and Power is not enough! Brewster, who has a very good power and speed combination, is a champ today mainly due to his HEART...
This is like asking if a car with half the tank and a good engine can drive for 100 Miles?
Problem is, the transmission is shut!
Now you answer that question.
But besides that... Tyson has already been exposed and too many fighters can beat him today.
mike tysons career ended in 1990 and we still talking about him
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to NextRocky again.
No fucking shit will it ever end.
No and Yes.
Right on......if his opponent did not hit back he would be able to drop anyone out there even Toney they say power is the last thing to go....but unfortunetely people do hit back and he just does not have it in his head anymore and has not for some time.
I know tyson dosent have the desire or dedication to become champ but dose tyson still have enough speed and power left to become champ ? .
yes he do. but his injuries are
keepin him out
I saw a sparring session of tysons before the mcbride fight and tyson looked very impressive lots of spped, power and headmovement he looked like the tyson of old , why didnt mike bring all that to the ring when he fought mcbride ? .
Whoever made up this dumb thread is just wastING Cyberspace. Tyson's been nothing but a dangerous journeyman for the past 15 yrs. Obviously he could make a deal with King to borrow a title, but really, just
GIVE IT UP..........TYSON'S TOAST!
If ifs and nuts were candy and nuts we'd all be fed for a lifetime.
If Tyson had the brain of Bernard Hopkins and the dedication that goes with that, sure, he could be a threat even now. But he doesn't. Tyson is done, please stop talking about him. Can we please move on and talk about other fighters that are relevant to now.
Mayweather is fighting this weekend.
I agree with you, but I guess this show how people think. Tyson is what people still want to talk about at times.
