      Prison tends to do that to people. And yeah, 91, Tyson would of had a better chance. I think in 96 97, he was getting into drugs. Don't quote me on that.

        Just look at the version of him in your sig compared to 1996, he wasn't even that old by then and you can see a noticeable decline in comparison.

        The saddest part of the movie was the post fight interview they showed in his last fight.

          Yeah that was pretty depressing, that was truly the end of Mike. With some more training, and improvements to his stamina, Tyson would of beat Mcbride. I am not a very big fan of Mcbride either.

            Oh, and about that picture in my sig, if you watch that part of the movie, it is actually unbelieve he was that fast. I had to rewind that part of the movie, it looked almost fake. No wonder people were so terrified of him.

                Oh without a doubt if he came in to that fight in half decent shape Mcbride would have taken a nap.....he was just a shell the guy who fought Holyfield who was a shell of the great fighter I remember beating Berbick, Spinks and Tucker.....it is not out of the question at least in my mind that the very best version of him could have beaten any HW who ever laced them up.
