The Search for the Next Mike Tyson

[Golden Boy 360]

Will we ever find the next Tyson? No. But sooner or later someone will come along who is different, and just close enough. He always does.

Another Tyson? No, thanks. I'm still convinced he's part of the reason the sport has been reduced to something you can't find on regular television. This ****** bit off a chunk of his opponent's ear for Christ's sake.

When was the last time you saw a big fight on primetime network TV?

James Kirkland would end up being the next Tyson IF he sharpens up his head movement and defense.

well since the heavyweight division is basically in the same state it was when tyson domonated there should be all kinds of tysons, but for some reason there are'nt any.

To create the phenomenon of Mike Tyson a trainer, who knows what he is doing, needs to find a young kid who has the right kind of talent. A long list of prerequisites like that is difficult to replicate.

He's called David Haye
