Don't get me wrong, I love Tyson, he's the face of boxing right now for me, a charismatic person.
I appreciate that he's the fighter who made pro boxing popular among youth in Russia in 90's (this is where I'm from). People wouldn't care that much about the sport over here if it wasn't for him
Some dog owners name their pit bulls after Tyson. I had a friend and he's called Tyson because he loves ****ing people up. Tyson has that kind of fame that went over American borders. Even Pacquiao and Mayweather never had that kind of international fame when you think about it. When you ask a casual person about some boxers, Tyson is always the second name that gets mentioned after Ali. I don't know how it is in America, but that's how it is over here. Ali, Tyson, maybe Roy Jones and that's it, they barely know any other names
And I get that he was famous not because of his resume but because of the manner how he was winning fights. Definitely one of the most entertaining fighters of all time. But when you look at his resume you start thinking that all this hype isn't justified. Holyfield and Lewis were much better and they were coming from the same generation of heavyweights. I made this thread because I got tired arguing with casuals when I say that Tyson is not even top 5 heavyweight of all time
Man, you can even make an argument for Golovkin's resume being better and I'm not hating on Tyson, I have a lot of respect for him
Broner wins this.
I'll bet points or money.
Everyone knows? :lol1:
I like your delusional confidence. Fury will wipe the ring with Wilder, and I cant wait to feed you that crow.
Think you are right, Fury wins, but for real money what odds you offering?
I never seen a elite fighter like Canelo have a dominate or KO win of another top fighters like past greats or elite fighters now do.
He also gets the benefit on the cards.
I had Canelo vs Cotto 8-4 Canelo but score cards were wide.
I had Canelo vs Lara 8-4 or 9-3 Lara and when they read that one wide score card everyone thought it was Lara's, nope Canelo.
Both GGG fights i thought he lost.
Trout was winning the first part of the fight. open scoring ruined it when they said Trout was down of course that had to effect him.
Draw for the May fight
I had the Canelo vs Jacobs fight 7-5 Canelo and that was the best judges did in a Canelo fight i seen. Was really surprised.

I would die of laughter if it happens. Many posters p4p number 1 losing to the laughing stock of the forum, and all that spence/crawford marination for nothing. I cant see it happening though, i think a younger khan could have made it interesting but this version is done.
It can happen but khan overestimates his chin and thinks he can go toe to toe.
If he jumps in throws a combo, then darts out of range and repeats he wins a UD
But he will go in and try and do a toe to toe fight where his chin gets checked several times
LMAO. That shlt is funny to me.
I'm sure it's just as funny to Mayweather. He broke that lady's heart. That must have actually felt pretty good to hear :lol1:
It made me laugh so hard I had to wipe a little tear from my eye...because you can tell she really means it! :rofl:
Maybe it's sadistic of me, but when people are really emotionally hurt that badly over something that isn't a big deal, like their favorite boxer losing to another boxer, it just really cracks me up.
Reminds me of my brother in law staring at Lennox Lewis after he knocked out Tyson..and all he could mutter was a stoic, "I hate you." :rofl:
High comedy value in the video
She should be thankful he was merciful and only whooped Pac once.
He could've whooped him 3 times, bringing even greater shame to her people.
Agreed with this
When his purse for Brazeale is revealed to be about $4 million and then his "fans" come in here and tell us Al Haymon cut him a $26 million side check to match what DAZN would have paid him for the same fight will be the best part of this whole ordeal. It's comedy at it's finest
I’m not a big Wilder fan.
My guess is that he will up the sponsorship deals.
It may Be $5m for the fight and $50m sponsorship over 12 months
I can see Khan being competitive for the first half of the fight, after that it is all Crawford. The KO can happen at any time.
Problem with Khan is that he thinks he has an iron chin.
If he admits his chin is glass, and doesn’t get in the pocket, and fights at distance, fire a combo and then back pedal and repeat all night he may win a UD.
But he will be in the pocket going toe to toe and will be Canelo’d.
He can just choose to up his sponsorship from 2 mil to 50? Why didn't he choose to do that sooner? :rofl:
Wilder is building a name by using AJ, Fury etc
After getting Amir Khan to do the chicken dance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUW7gWi4vZ0
Seems like a talent that went wrong somewhere, wonder what he thinks about Crawford -v- The Dancer?
Talent or someone who got lucky with a glass jaw fighter
I 100% agree with your comments about Pacquiao. Asking him to fight all the top fighters is unrealistic. I think he should give it up.
Garcia. I don't know what his motivation was for fighting Spence. Don't care really. It"s irrelevant. What surprised me was how some people tried to put Spence on the level of a club fighter. I like both guys as individuals the fight happened it's over and there was no controversy. Thank God.
Agreed.
Pac-Man should do what Floyd is.
Boxing match against McGregor for $100m
Boxing match again Tenshin for $50m.
Pac-Man deserves very easy pay days or even handouts.
Lol.
After all that **** talking about how terrible the matchup was, and how no one would be interesting in the fight, bums like you are running around like scalded chickens with your heads coming off, hoping against hope to steal a decent stream from anywhere.
Hilarious
Who you referring to?
I always said this is a great fight.
HD is only on sky i think, i cant get it on mine, either way hopefully they get Naz in on the nosebag all night to co-host and commentate, & get rid of blackferatu.
Set my alarm to wake up for it.
What’s your plans, staying awake all night?
