    One more thing about the McBride fight... how did the judges score it for Tyson?

    At the time of stoppage a couple of the judges had Tyson up, around 57-55. If it wasn't for the two point deduction that would have made it 59-55.

    Now I admit that McBride is a bag o'crap and didn't show any real boxing skill, but that just illustrated further how much Tyson had deteriorated. I have to ask... how could two judges say that Tyson was winning that fight?

      Even after a two point deduction?

      I must admit, I could have been swayed by the Colonel a little, I'll have to watch it again...

        The announcers on showtime said the judges scored it 57-55KB 57-55KB and 57-55MT. So that means without the 2point deduction 2 judges had it at a tie, the other was probably paid off or a fanatic

          Are you sure on that? I'll check again, but unless I misheard I thought it was 2-1 judges in Mike's favour.

              More reason to believe that Tyson is a ****ing waste. He quit while winning. Now he can join the ranks of Golota and Vitali as quitting while ahead on points. Only difference is Vitali quit due to injury, Golota and Tyson quit because they are bitches.

                I know. I was upset about that fact too. Why not finish the whole fight?

                    Yeah, but surely Tyson wouldn't have believed he was winning, would he? A guy who isn't even ranked in the top 150 was pushing him around the ring and landing cleanly while blocking most of his shots... surely he must have thought he was losing? Or do they get informed of the scores?
