Tyson looks old in them pics.
well he is forty, and just started training again. he probably hasn't been taking care of himself like bernard hopkins would, so i'm not suprised at his appearance at all.
no you got that wrong vanilla ice said that eminem was a piece of shit . i an saying eminem was a phony a punk assed white boy who was made by doctor dre . eminem was a no talent bum all he did was use clever shock tactics by being bold enough to use his freedom of speech to state how fucked up society is aswell as slagging off other celebrities and his mother and then you had him being built up by the media and other talentless artists like pink saying he is a poet . Where actual intelligent people such as university professors who studied his lyrica said that his lyrics contained about as much poetic content and
i never got the impression that he was a poet i found his lyrics self indulgent,agressive,crude and hypocritical.
He is saying that it's funny because Vanilla Ice was "made" as well. He didn't make himself, clever marketing and song that used a bass line stolen from a queen song made him popular. I guess he's just mad because Eminem is the new "phoniest rapper of all time" lol
I wouldn't mind seeing Iron Mike club some MMA fighters. Although I was never a big fan of Tyson outside of the ring, I almost never missed his PPV's. It would be interesting to see how the MMA type of power compares to world class boxing power.
Great way for him to make some money! :D
Old timey champs like Johnson and Louis and others used to do exhibitions all the time for extra dough after they'd quit fighting professionally. As poplular a champ as Mike was, this should be a good source of income for him. :D
Yeah more than likely.
Tyson obviously remains dangerous as a fighter because the last thing that you lose is power.
But I will say that if he plans on fighting again through any medum it be, he shouldn't quit the damn fight.
Because he folds, and that doesn't give him the chance to land a big punch on his opponent and knock them out.
I truly believe he folded against Lewis, Williams, Holyfield and Mcbride. He flat out gave up, and that's puzzling.
I dont think he gave up against Lewis and Holyfield. He was a straight out gladiator those nights. He met his doom like a man. Not many would have stood 8 rounds of battering from a gaint.
Anyway, good points. I'll just leave it at that.

It's almost completely mental rather physical that does battle in Mike's head.. reading about him at an early age, and all the things leading up to now, i'm pretty amazing and pleased with how things have ended up currently for Tyson, given how bad things could've have gone, considering..
Thats kinda blown out of proportion. Mike had an interview at a pride press conference, and he was very enthosiastic about it. Guys kept asking him if he would fight and stuff. And Tyson was all humble and about that. I dont think this will happen though.

Oh and before someone takes fire with the "giving up against Lewis" thing. Yeah he was getting reamed, but he still was displaying negative body language.

Why does it say hes not planning a comeback? He has to be training for somthing...
well, that and the guy's been around alot of competitve sports lately, the rahman weigh-in, this pride press conference, various live events (boxing & MMA).. i get the urge to work out just watching on tv so i can imagine the drive going to all these live contests..
i think Tyson will remain an admirer of other combative athletes and keep doin his thing training wise, just to keep things active, and he needs money.. which i don't have a problem with.. everyone does
I read that he was engaged in outstanding PRIDE contracts with the Japs.....and that he was scheduled to sell a couple of PPV's.
I'd watch them, just not buy them legally.

Ok, listen up here. I got the right sources about my boy.
1-He's trying to think of ways of making an easy buck here and there. He knows he can do it easily with his name.
2-The biggest way of making money is fighting. But Mike is not a fighter annymore. He doesnt wanna FIGHT annymore. So exhibition bouts will make him the most money, and its the closest thing of watching Iron Mike fight.
3-He will have a great time, become more healthy as someone said, and make money at the same time with these bouts.
I wish him all the best, and i'll be checking his bouts.

i read somewhere he is training because he is going to fight 6 exhibition fights where he is getting paid a cool million for each.. How many other fighters can do that?
So.
It's not like I don't want him to fight, but is he going to fuckin quit again after hyping everyone up?
Because sometimes I believe that he can knock people out, but he folds like a cheap fucking tent.
This Pride thing may be going too far. (PRIDE Fighting)

Youre crazy if you think Eminem is a phony. Hes one of the best MCs ever man. Maybe top 10. Your gonna listen to wha Vanilla Ice has to say? lol man he is the definition of phony, dude lied about bein in the hood and what not. Im not going to go into it here since this is a boxing forum.
eminem didnt even write his own music . i have little respectr for any musical artists who do not write their own music .

I wouldnt pay a damn thing to watch this overated bum. he go his ass whooped by a journey man too many times for me to even consider him anything but a overhyped bum that blew all his money. I don't feel sorry for him one bit.
So since he lost twice in his late 30s I guess he is a bum right? Well I guess since Ali lost twice in his late 30s hes a bum too?
