Would the 2004 Tyson have beat McBride?

[PapiShasho]

tyson couldve KOed mcbride if he had gone brewster on him, instead of trying to box and use head movement.

wouldve been a 1 round fight, and he could have knocked a few more bums out and gotten more paychecks to pay off his debt, but now hes ****ed.

Now to be fair to me you do have to admit that the thread is dog**** right? I mean this is the type of thread that really gets the new posters blood pumping and brain racing...cong**** on stimulating boxingscene's youth.

Now let me ask the question again...
2002 Tyson vs. 2000 Buster Mathis? Man that would have been something right Anorak?

I don't see your point... there are 20 threads on the front page, if you don't like one,what's it matter?

Dog****? Nah, I dunno. I'm just speculating about Tyson's deteriorating condition. It's nothing high-brow, obviously, just a quickie.

Nice satire about the Mathis thing though...

2004? Hahaha, keep goin, you're gettin warmer!

Oh, hate to do the old bumpity-bump, but it suddenly occured to me I'd missed out the entire reason for this thread's being: McBride was originally scheduled to be Tyson's opponent in 2004, but they thought it was too easy even for Tyson comeback standards and so went for Danny Williams instead. But if they hadn't...?

See, I knew there was some relevance or significance to the thread... I wasn't just pulling fantasy match-ups from thin air or anything...

2004 Tyson would murder Mcbride, i cant believe how old he looked in that fight. I thought Tyson was shot when he fought Williams because he would have lost with or without the knee problem, i didnt realise a fighter could get shot twice!!

williams has more heart and a better chin that mcbride thats why he survived that fight in 2004, i think mcbride may have been ko'd, tyson looked better in the williams fight.

They put him against McBride hoping that if he won he would face Klitschko next cause he is 6'7. That would be easy 20 million for him if that fight happened.

Ummmm... I never said they didn't. The whole thread was about whether he would have won if it had happened (as originally planned) in 2004.
