Are you actually saying that Tyson's fights with Tony Tucker and Bonecrusher Smith were less than thrilling? Boxing fans have the shortest memories in the world, lol.

While I was being sarcastic, I was really agreeing with you.

Tyson wasnt so scared of being hit he stunk the place out.

That was one of the worst fight i have ever seen in my life.

Duddy saved the bill.

The difference was, Tyson wanted to make Tucker and Smith fight but they wouldn't.

Wladimir and Sultan tried to both make each other make mistakes but they wouldn't.

People are over-reacting to the bore we saw last night but the heavyweight division needs a great fight to bring back interest and this certainly wasn't a great fight.

That's very reasonable. Sometimes styles don't make for appealing fights. History has proven that heavyweight fights like this are quickly forgotten just as soon as a good one takes place. Lennox Lewis was in some terrible yawners (Mavrovic, Tua, etc.) but he is mostly remembered for his destructions of Rahman and Tyson, along with his war with Vitali Klitschko. Not coincidently they were his last three fights.

Your comparing Slapstko to Tyson. What have you been smoking.

For someone as schooled and seasoned as Ibragamov i thought he fought like an idiot.

Ok he tried to outbox Wlad -BAD IDEA but why not try he had the speed edge but after 6rds of nothing you would have tought the only way to win is to come foward and turn it into a dog fight he didnt.

And Mayweather saying we have plan A,B,C and D was a joke.
