Tyson will be ready to fight soon

[Mike Tyson Jr.]

Did you see Tyson last night

was much better and hes training.
Hes gonna fight again soon. He
can win one of the belts.

[tyson]

Yes, if Ruiz wins another belt he can

[leff]

I guess he can knock Ruiz out and maybe brewster but not byrd and no way in hell he can vk.

Good he is back though.

Any news on who he is going to be fighting? I thought it was Kevin McBride, whose last lost came against TOS.

McBride was replaced by Danny Williams. I don't know if they still want McBride. I've heard him linked to Kali Meehan, which is not a good comeback fight for the same reason Williams wasn't. There was also a K-1 fighter with 8 professional boxing losses that was linked to Tyson since he has a K-1 connection...

It's a shame to watch Tyson get in the ring with some dude from the K-1 arena, with 8 boxing losses...
Hope that's not true

Yeah I know that, but I heard they still want McBride now. I disagree, Meehan would be a pretty good comeback fight. He's more known than McBride and just look at what Danny Williams did to him.

Meehan, though, took a lot of Rahman punishment without going down...

When Tyson's coming off of a layoff, and "getting back in the swing of things", he doesn't need to fight a much taller, much heavier guy that can lean on him and make him tired. Tyson's pride won't let him fight a guy with a losing record, but he needs to do what Rahman did after his losing streak or Foreman after his layoff - the fans will want to watch a Tyson KO anyway like they remember. Why not fight 4-5 bums, get ranked by one of the alphabets in the Top 10, and go for a big fight?

The trick is getting a Peter McNeeley - a guy with a great record but a misleading one. I think Meehan has been exposed, so if Tyson struggles with him, it hurts his image that he can get back in the mix with the contenders.
