    Any sign of a new Tyson?

    I like watching boxing, mostly Tyson, Holyfield, Ali, etc but I don't follow it close. Is there any American boxer that is making a name for himself and has a chance to be the unified title holder? I love Tyson and I know a little but about him but I'd get into boxing a lot if there was a boxer of his caliber. Again, I don't watch boxing but if I see a fight on ESPN Classics I watch it.

        I'm talking about a boxer that can take over the sport. I like how Tyson was, if I seen a fighter with his style I'd watch him for sure. I know about Manny and Floyd but I don't like watching an other boxing matches but heavyweights.

          really? you're missing out man. the lower weights have always been more interesting than the heavies imo

          there's a higher skill level

                Ruslan Chagaev is the "white Tyson", apparently. :laff2:

                He's your man.

                    Nope, get into the lower weight classes though, you'll seem some really exciting fighter...but the closest thing to a new Tyson in the heavyweight division is Alexander Povetkin in my opinion. Although, I wouldn't call him the next Tyson.
