    What's so impressive about a guy that has to elbow, head butt and low blow to try and win, and when all that doesn't work, he bites the guy or quits on his stool?

      Who am I to say he's biased? Did you read what he wrote? Trying to justify Tyson not fighting Lennox Lewis based on the fact he wasn't a "big name"? So I guess Bruce Seldon was a much more credible name, and more challenging fight? Come on give me a break.

      And for you to ask how I can "root" for Marciano? You really don't understand much I guess. It's called having respect for the history of the sport. To see Marciano and many others thrown under the proverbial bus by guys like you is sad to see.

                I've had all I can stand and I can't stand no more.LOL I seriously doubt it had anything to do with recognizing who the linear champ was. I think it had to do more with Holyfield being a very easy fight for much mucho money. Tyson knew he wasn't **** after prison. He never refused to fight anyone but he refused to fight Lewis which just goes to show what he thought about his abilities after getting out. Tyson was too old to effectively make his style work at 100% against anyone after prison. He should have fought better than he did though, but no he was in his prime. LOL

                  Yeah, he's a little *****. He rated me at one star then left a rating message about me being a twelve year old on my moms computer. So I try to rate him back and its blocked. What a little *****, and this is all after I told him I was just playing around with him and I respect everyone here. I do have to admit for his age he is pretty ******, so I'm not surprised getting all that from him. The guy takes all this way to personal.

                    Mike Tyson is a disgrace to the sport of boxing. His blatant fouls in ALL of his fights are too numerous to mention, he is a convicted rapist, a coward, and what he did to Evander Holyfield should have had him banned from boxing for life.

                      Tyson is too big and fast for Marciano. Marciano has nothing to keep Tyson off him. This fight is ending early.
