    Can Tyson Change Your Mind on Saturday?

    When Tyson fights that McNugget guy on Saturday, there are two types of fans and two results. The two types of fans are the die hards that think that Tyson can do no wrong, and is poised to take over the heavyweight division in 2006 and the haters that think he was always overrated and always ******. The two results are he wins convincingly in the first two rounds, or he struggles a bit or dare I say, loses.

    Will the "nut-huggers" still think that Iron Mike was the best ever if he loses?

    Will the haters still think Tyson sucks even if he KOs McBride within a minute or so?

    You know who you are.

    You forgot about the general public, Ive asked 10 people who arent boxing fans and they all are watching Iron Mike.

      nope
      he could decapitate McBride
      and id still think of his chances as the same
      no chance at all
      b4 i woulda said he had a shot at brewster
      but hes
      atleast in my eyes
      legitimized himself
      byrd would box cirlces around him
      Vit would kill him
      ruiz.....

        I think he has a chance if he destroys McBride, But if he looses I must as a Tyson fan say hes done.

          Actually I dont want Mike to destroy the guy but I do want him to win. I realize if he doesnt knock this guy out in less than 5 people are going to say ohh see he is washed up yada yada yada. However what I want to actually see is Mike go the distance, we know Mike can punch and knock people out but what the man needs is rounds. If he wants another shot at glory and be a champion there isnt one heavyweight champ out today that he could take out in less than 4 rounds.

          I want it to go to the score cards, Mike has never had a lot of rounds in his career and he is still relatively fresh as well.

            Tyson is probably through, of course you can't count him out in this division. Probably through.

            Tyson needs to go the distance, but doing so vs McBride won't say much. He has to KO McBride quickly (and he will) then fight a top 10 fighter. I think he could beat Rahman and Ruiz.

              I just want to see Tyson have a great performance makes some money and maybe pick up a fringe title and then retire. I will always be a Mike Tyson fan win, lose, draw or DQ.

                Well know it wont say much to the general public or the experts as they will be quick to trash him, I am not a big fan of Tyson today. However, I want him to get some experience in I would be satisfied even if he taken this guy out in the 8th or 9th. I just want him to get more than 4 rounds in, because if he doesnt Mike will still keep that mentality that he can slack in training and go in and knock the guy out in the first half. Mike is notorious for this and he needs to realize it isnt happening.

                A decision victory for Mike is bigger than a knockout in my mind. Everybody knows Mike can punch but we all know he cant do well with diversity and pressure especialy in the second half of the fight. My favorite to win is Mcbride, I dont care how slow he is. I believe he will hold and lean on Mike all night long and who still says the knee is 100% and who else knows if Mike wouldnt fold under the pressure. This fight is very intriguing.

                  Personally, I don't think he can unless he knocks McBride out. Tyson is a powerful hitter and lately that seems to be all he has left. I think he forgot what part of boxing is about. It's a chess match. You have to see the other persons weakness and go for it. All he looks for now is a one shot knockout. If it goes the rounds I don't think he'll be able to break him down.

                    Jinx, every Tyson fights is intriguing thats one thing that makes Mike the man. But are you sure you want to pick Mcbride? This guy is pathetic, he makes Danny Williams look like a top five contender.
