    No Respect for Tyson?

    I personally feel for the guy, and even though hes made some bad choices, I think he never really had a chance.....Such Potential and look what hes become. its sad really, but his story has inspired me, and to me he will always be Iron Mike.

      he is a great boxer but unfortunately there is something wrong with him or who he is with. i mean don king is the ****test promoter in the world. he couldn't control tyson and i dont think he paid tyson that much money if tyson is bankrupted already. i would love him to get rich somehow now but i know he would spend it in weeks. he is a lost soul but will never be forgotten.

      great boxer.

        people respect him for his boxing achievements.

        people just don't like the bad things he's done and terrible choices he's made.

        sure he had it very rough, but most fighters do. is he supposed to get a pass because he had it rough when lots of other guys did and don't do the things he did?

          He should fight himself into shape on a string of ESPN2 Friday night main events. Nothing serious just something to gauge himself on and see how he feels. Burn off some unused energy and stress at the least. Never know what could become of it................

              I will never forget Tyson-Douglas... the REF started the "10 count" on Tyson while he was falling. Those were the fastest 10 seconds in boxing history. Then again, the REF counted until 14-16 when Douglas went down first. I believe that Tyson was not ready for that particulr fight. Then again, the World wanted him to fall and he was robbed..


              Iron Mike Tyson will be one of the Greatest Ever and saved Boxing in his 'time table".

                  Tyson had danny hurt bad in round 1. After seeing that, I dont think Danny would last 2 minuets with a prime Tyson.
