    Tyson Comeback

    What do people think on Tysons chances of coming back and making a significant impact on the sport like he did b4. I read that he thinks he will destroy Kevin McCall (I think his names that) and also that this may b part of a whole new succesfful chapter in his life. Well when your in 12 million debt your fighting for your life.

    Lets hope he wins.

    P.s his opponent cant throw combos, cant block, and is ultra slow. should b a walkover.

    I think you`ve answered your own question my friend. If Tyson insists on fighting bottom of the barrel fighters then he will not improve any, in fact there is a chance he could regress, especially at near 40 yrs old. Tyson has been finished for years, he`ll never beat a top ten fighter again. In fact, i`d pick James Toney to beat him!

      Btw i didnt answer my own question but yeah point taken. Give him a break though he is only just coming back. He is taking foremans tactic and look where that got him when he came back (champion). I think hes about 34 (not really that close to 40). And i dont no much about James Toney so i cant comment. Other than he beat Ruiz and then Ruiz retired.

        Mike Tyson will turn 39yrs old on June 30th. George Foreman never really took a beating in a fight in his first career ( only the loss to Ali ). Tyson has taken a few kick ins over recent years and it will catch up with him. Tyson is an accident waiting to happen. First decent fighter he fights he`ll be beaten.

          I for one am a huge fan of TYSON but unfortunately he is suffering through the "MICHAEL" curse. Jackson, Jordan, and Tyson all stayed in the game too long and became sideshows, Jordan's wasn't so bad but ya'll get my point. Oh and let's not forget about MYERS....

            Erm....I don`t think Micheal Jackson counts as his profession isn`t one where you get considerably worse with age ( well, only if you fiddle with your fans ).

              Thats true but i dont think anyone can judge Tysons form until he has fought. That is unless ur his trainer or part of his club . Im hopin he does well, he excites always and has great ability.

              The fact that he is close to 40 may or may not hinder his performance. His first opponent is easy -->June 11. COMON MIKE!!!

                After watching Tyson's Beyond The Glory, I have repsect for him. He actually seems like a good guy and I wish him the best in his comeback. Whether or not he will be as successful as the Lean Mean Grilling Machine remains to be seen, but time will tell.

                  tyson a youth style fighter.

                  Always coming forward, all preassure , not stop attack action, this is not foreman style.

                  This style of fighter even at the highest level are no good past 30.

                  Dempsey, Marciano, Frazier, Tyson.

                  Tyson is as done as Holyfield, but Mike will fight at a very very low level, if he fought guys like Toney Byrd, klitschko, just like the Lennox fight he would be embarrassed badly.

                  When a fighter gets like this its not time to cling on and inspire, but instead to encourage retirement ala Evander Holyfield

                    Also, Evander never really fought at a low level, constantly fighting world class fighters and thus suffered more defeats. Tyson could be more shot than Evander but it hasn`t shown up because Tyson only fights bums between gift title matches!
