Holyfield-Tyson Talks For Trilogy Bout?

[edgarg]

Don't know, you might be right.
I don't really think he cared about boxing after being sent to prison.

Mike should have killed Givens and be done with the demons before prison

Agree with Buster being a completely different person when he fought Holy.
He could have been a real contender had he continued what he was doing with Mike.
But how much of that fight that was down to Buster being good contra Mike being bad, I don't know. I must admit I haven't seen more than two fights from Buster.
I don't want to. Don't like him.

All the reports at the time said that Tyson didn't train until about a week before the fight, that he's been living it up with parties and **********s. They went crazy over him in Tokyo. And with no one to control him. He was still just an oversexed, manipulative kid who wanted, and got his own way.

And in fact, no matter what Buster says, King was correct, Buster was down for nearly 15 seconds, and when he got up, his arms were hanging down. He says that he was fully recovered and listening to the ref, and that it wasn't HIS fault that the ref counted slow. Well......I suppose he's correct about that, and King was correct about the rest of it. He WAS down for over 14 seconds, and when he got up, he didn't show he was ready to fight.

When he fought Holyfield , he'd been on an extended spree himself, and had to quickly train down from, it was said, over 300 lbs.Poor Buster was also diabetic, which didn't help. Today he's HUGE. And in the Tyson fight, he boxed like he NEVER had before (or after), he looked like a REAL all-time great.

i love tyson but i really hope this doesnt happen

[sterling]

i think it wil happen because tyson needs the money and heavywieghts need more watchable fights people wil watch it but doesnt mean it wil be a gd fight.

[oovavu]

I saw a interview where tyson said he would be very interested in this fight and that it is the only fight that would give him the oomph to train hard and get back in the ring, saying that I wouldn't pay to see it.

Holyfield takes it again with tyson quitting on his stool around the 5th - 6th

Tyson Holyfield III wouldn't be good fight to watch, but truth be told it would probably generate more PPVs than any other heavyweight contest at this moment in time...

Unless Lewis came out of retirement, In a not so long ago GQ interview with piers morgan (last month) Lewis stated that he has had offers of up to $40m to get back in the ring which he flatly declined but said for $50m he'd take his pajamas off...

Htwon was RIGHT. He said talks ARE still going on for this bout and he said it WEEKS ago.

[Mike Tyson77]

I got my points on Tyson!

[PeterinMI]

This is crazy! These are two of my all time favorites, but I don't want to see this. But of course like a true die-hard Boxing fan, if it happens I will watch.

I am not sure I would watch. Just sad. Both of these fighters have done damage to there legacies. Evander needs to shut it down. Mike shut down long before he finally quit on his stool. Sad, sad.

Evander is fighting for pride. He doesn't need the money I believe. Mike on the other hand needs the cash. I understand and don't want the last Heavyweight to really excite the nation to live on alms the rest of his days but this won't turn out good. Evander will spank him if it happens. Evander will then feel it is validation to continue on his quest for his fifth alphabet belt.

I thought Evander had a grill he was pimping lately to compete with Big George?

Tyson has less options. If he could get his act together he could do more bit parts in movies and television. He is still recognized by more people then just about anyone else from Boxing. He could also do the WWE thing some more but that seems so degrading. We know he doesn't have the temperment to be a trainer or promoter. Again, sad.

**** i hope this fight doesnt happen! if it happens though, i hope tyson wins.
