The Search for the Next Mike Tyson

Another Tyson? No, thanks. I'm still convinced he's part of the reason the sport has been reduced to something you can't find on regular television. This retard bit off a chunk of his opponent's ear for Christ's sake. When was the last time you saw a big fight on primetime network TV? I think that phenomenon really started in the late eighties The Tyson earbite,really,was the final nail in the coffin for the Heavyweight Championship being considered the biggest prize in sports. The migration of boxing from primetime to PPV happened a lot earlier.

He's called David Haye

Will we ever find the next Tyson? No. But sooner or later someone will come along who is different, and just close enough. He always does. http://www.hbo.com/boxing/features/upcoming/next_tyson.html To create the phenomenon of Mike Tyson a trainer, who knows what he is doing, needs to find a young kid who has the right kind of talent. A long list of prerequisites like that is difficult to replicate.

well since the heavyweight division is basically in the same state it was when tyson domonated there should be all kinds of tysons, but for some reason there are'nt any.

James Kirkland would end up being the next Tyson IF he sharpens up his head movement and defense.
