It is too late for Tyson,however if he trains with Rooney again he can stay in decent shape,however, he would need 8 months of intensive training.
I believe Tyson can't take it anymore,however,Cus D'Amato style executed properly would own Holyfield.No question about it.
http://www.markstraining.com/2009/10/kevin-rooney-on-mike-tyson.html
And how many fighters can you name who went 32 rounds with Holyfield and Tyson without ever looking close to being knocked out.
Stop bringing the names of Holyfield who was too old at the time and specially Tyson who was fat out of shape and a drug addict at the time,the same Tyson who got Koed by Williams and Mcbride.
Even Manny Steward said that at that point Tyson was completely shot bellow Lennox Lewis's sparring partners.
Manny also said that young Mike Tyson was the most devastating puncher he has ever seen and that he would have beaten Lewis.The full article is in sports illustrated.You can see a few quotes in the site SecondsOut.com written by Thomas Hauser.
Ruiz defeated old Holyfield and knock him down.
Tua cos he was the only guy at his prime defeated by Lennox.Tyson at that point was a fat slob and a drug addict.Holyfield was too old.Mercer got robbed and Vitali was winning and Lennox ran from a rematch like a chicken.Grant was a C fighter and Golota a B fighter like Briggs.
It did land but the knockout seems unreal. The punch almost didn't land and imo wasn't hard enough. Maybe Chambers just got tired of the constant assault and was taking advantage out of it and decided to end the fight by taking a dive.
I agree.Chambers was lost, i don't think he had the notion that those were the last seconds of the fight.
I hope not, the guy is a disgraceful tomato.The worst performance ever.
Chambers threw less punches than kevin Tomato,he never tried to do nothing the whole fight.The guy is an absolute clown.Eddie Tomato for you.lol
Eddie tomato did worse than Kevin tomato or Chagaev tomato.The only fighter that forced wlad to fight was Thompson,but unfortunately he injured his leg in the mid rounds or the fight would be more competitive.
All these tomatos don't want to fight with Thompson,cos all of them would lose.
Thompson is the best american right now,but he is too old.
fact: tyson got owned by just about every tall good fighter he's faced. wlad would have him outta there quicker than Kevin Mcbride did.
Really?Like Tony Tucker,Bonecrusher,Ruddock,Carl Williams,Tyrel Biggs,all of them small fighters.
Just the fact that you are comparing a young prime Mike Tyson with an old washed version shows that you are a kid.
Tyson was trained by Cus D'Amato to beat tall fighters.
Tyson never lost a fight with Kevin Rooney in his corner.
kevin Rooney was Cus's best student he was there to make sure that Tyson would execute Cus's fighting system properly.

I could go on but i think you hsave lost bad enough...
Bodybuilding white. Currently a white guy named Jay cutler is the best,but there is also Arnold Schwarzenegger,Franco Colombo or Dorian Yates as great champs.In the black side we have Ronnie Coleman or Lee Haney.
Strongman-currently white.
The best sports man of all time are often regarded as Muhammed Ali, Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, Pele and Roger Federer.
You forgot that many fans consider Maradona better than Pele.
Then there is Cruiff or Zico or Cristiano Ronaldo all of them white.Platini was considered better than Zidane,etc.
Basketball is more an american sport than a worldwide sport.Europe clearly prefers soccer.
Roger Federer Pete Sampras or Andre Agassi are considered the 3 best of all time.
There isn't a superior race,simply some athletes prefer some sports than others,but nobody can say that you are better just cos you are white or black.
There isn't a superior race,just guys that dominate a sport by different reasons sometimes they are white others blacks or yellow,unfortunately the red men don't dominate a single sport cos they never had a chance to do it.
The most dominate player is Serena Williams for is Women Tennis, most athletic player of all time.
Nope! Steffi Graf(22 slams) or Martina Mavratilova(18) are way better than Serena with 12 slams.Margaret Court won 23 slams.
Kaka is full white more or less 53% of white brazilians( the majority in the country)descend from Portuguese then Brazil has the South of the country full of Italians and Germans(ex:Giselle Bundchen)
The mullatos(mix of black, white and Amerindian) are the second biggest
ethnic group in Brazil.Actually,in Brazil pure blacks are a minority alongside with Amerindians.
Brazil won the most world cups, and it's team dominated by Afro-Brazilians
This is incorrect.
Brazil's team is dominated in his history by a mix of blacks, whites, and mestizos or half-breeds (a mix of white, black and amerindian).
Italy is just a single title behind Brazil with 4 then Germany with 3 and Argentina with 2.
Best brazilian players of all time:
Pele-black
Garrincha-amerindian
Zico-white
Socrates-white
Rivelino-white
Ronaldo-mulato
Romario-amerindian
Ronaldinho-Black,etc all of them are great blacks and whites
It's not at all about race.
It's about dedication, hard work and skills
Exactly!
Gymnastics: How about our Asian brothers and sisters?
In the history of Gymnastics eastern Europeans are considered the best.
Tyson was beyond shot when he fought Lewis and he also got caught smoking drugs prior to the fight,so if this fight beats that ridiculous fight fraud named Tyson -Lewis it is not a big deal.
Haye is garbage!
http://www.worldboxingnews.net/2011/06/mike-tyson-says-haye-will-get-knocked.html
Teddy Atlas is such a disgusting loser,he makes accusations without showing proof.
This fool predicted Pac to lose against Hatton and DLH,now he says that pac picked his opponents to win,well according to Atlas Hatton doesn't know how to fight and that Mayweather would knock Pac out,however,Mayweather needed more rounds than Pac to ko Hatton.BS at its finest!lol
Considering that it would be easy for Floyd to ko Pac he should accept to fight him under the current rules.
Everyone knows that Atlas is a republican extremist.
Mike was trained in a punch point system by cus..and unbelivable head movement when he was very young even before he won his first HW title..mike had to b the most forocious fighter ever when he was very young and when cus was still living..but cus died and Tyson fired kevin Rooney the only guy who still had the knowlage to train mike in the pika boo style all that great talent was lost..no one could have trained mike other than cus or Rooney cus those was the two major trainers in his life..mike still had vicious power even after prison and later in his career but his other skills were diminished he had no speed and no head movement and didn't put his punches in combination...Tyson has to b put in the top 10 greatest HW of all time cuz of the acomplishments he had of lineal belts and defence's..mike was one the best if not the best talent the HW division had ever seen cuz he had god given physical abilitys that litteraly scare people but none of this was extended to the fullest cuz the death of his rainer cus in and out of jail and marriage and legal disputes but still mike was a golden age HW!!
Excellent post.Tyson belongs to the top 10 list easy.
Pathetic. :nonono:
Dominic Guinn would have been a live opponent, but Javier Mora is no threat whatsoever.
I'm puking right now after another ridiculous opponent for the number 1 contender.
Teddy Atlas gets exposed AGAIN it's the 2nd bum in a row chosen by Atlas to fight Povetkin who has enough experience to fight top 10 fighters.
It is important to remember that Teddy Atlas is ALWAYS bashing all the boxers due to the soft opposition chosen by their teams to build up fighters.
I repeat the number 1 contender with a strong amateur background
will fight another bum after 2 years as a pro.
It is also important to say that this fake trainer until now refused to put Povetkin with a tall guy like Ray Austin which means Povetkin can't slip a single jab after months and months of training with Atlas.
After all the biased crap he said about Cus D'Amato,Rooney and Tyson he is doing 10 times worse on purpose.
I guess you guys haven't seen that video posted up here recently of Povetkin training ...
Atlas is building him up to fight in a similar style to Tyson.
You don't know what you are seeing.This is not Cus D'Amato style,Povetkin still doesn't know how to bob and weaving and slip a jab to get inside.
If you don't know how to get inside against the Klitshckos you will be destroyed.
Yes,Alexander is doing good inside combinations and the basic Cus D'Amato slip drill to the 2 hooks,but there isn't a counterpunch and he loses his vision, cos he is doing it incorrectly.
Another mistake,Povetkin is circling, he is not trying to cut the ring
and provoke openings bob and weaving to get inside or looking for angles.
His head movement from outside is also bad,the foot speed is not enough,etc.
Povetkin is too green and if he fights like this he will be destroyed easily by Wlad.
Povetkin still has a lot of body fat round his belly,not acceptable from a fighter who has only 22 pounds above his height.
I have to agree with everything Atlas said,this time he is correct.
Arreola said that he would come at high 30 or low 40,again he failed.
Arreola is a disgrace to this sport and a ridiculous fat ass.
Arreola has very little chance to win this fight almost zero.If Adamek sticks with the game plan and moves well he will beat Arreola easily by UD.
Someone needs to brutally punish this idiot and shut up his mouth!
First of all, this clown only fought ultra bums and he barely koed anyone, let alone ass whopping in this business.
He is saying that nobody says anything about this clown in the internet.
Seriously Kevin Tomato?Everyone on the web says that you suck big time.
Valuev and Dimitrenko said that you suck.Can you read Kevin Tomato?
Who the hell can you beat with a clumsy jab and nothing else?
Tony Thompson would beat you easily.
Adamek,Povetkin,Hellenius,Arreola,Solis would beat you,hell i even would give a chance to Michael Grant to beat you,because you aren't nothing.
This guy makes me sick and he is a ****ing clown without any boxing skill and a stupid braggart.
You ran from the prizefighter tournament in the UK.Legal issues my ass!Do you know why?
Because, even Gregory Tony could beat you.
Top contenders don't want to fight each other,because they can get a title shot without fighting anybody.The refusal should have consequences meaning that they should have lost their rankings like Povetkin.How can these guys be on the top 10 if they don't fight nobody in the top 50?
Boxing as a sport and specially the HW division is a corrupt joke.
if they stand to make 10milliion then the challenger should get at least a million....harrison is getting 1 million pounds(1.5 million US) to fight haye so why shouldnt a guy like tua get at least that? he holds 2 regional titles that gives him a #2 ranking in WBO.tua was offered what $400000 thats a joke considering he got $500000 to fight shane cameron
You are right,but there are no rules in boxing.The sad part is that everyone is refusing to fight the Klits,but the truth is that the Klits also don't want to pay anything at all.
Klits should have accepted Haye's conditions,after all in the end they would have all the belts.
I happened to see his only lose live and in all fairness to Mike it was obvious from where I was sitting that he had hurt his shoulder. He looked like he was in severe pain just sitting in his corner and I for one did not understand why his corner did not stop the fight? RIP Mike.
I didn't notice that he had hurt his shoulder,regardless he took a lot of punishment in that fight,however,i also think physically he looked stronger than ever in his comeback.
A real tragedy!R.I.P. Mike.
This is ridiculous,cos K camp already said that they won't accept wada tests only the current ones determined by the commission.Stop trying to confuse the kids.
