    The fact that Mike couldn't come to the decision that he was done BEFORE everyone spent their hard earned bucks for that over priced fiasco. Or at least revealed that his heart wasn't in it.

    I'm betting he already knew the thrill was gone and hoped to "fake" his way to one last victory but just couldn't do it.

      I just think it's funny that there were still so many people in denial about Tyson. People actually thought (I talked to one the night of the fight) that thought Tyson could come back and win the title again. Man, I hope this finally puts an end to all this unrealistic Tyson bull****. Tyson got his ass beat by straight up bums, not once, but 2 times in a row. And dont give me any of that "he hurt his leg" vs Danny Williams bull****.

        Hes nearly forty years old and was done in 1996. The old Mike Tyson would have killed McBride and Williams just like a prime Ali would have beat Berbick and Holmes.

          I agree but dont forget to add Lennox Lewis, Tyson woulda beat him 2 around 1995-1996.

                Nothing wrong losing to someone named Kevin, no not at all.

                  Prime Tyson's chances against Lewis, and prime Ali's chances against Holmes are both subjects open to debate.
