    I read an article a few days ago where one of the Klit bros said it was still one of his goals to fight Tyson, pretty sad goal. Why do some boxers call out other fighters who have retired, especially long since retired. He should leave Tyson in peace, he's been through enough hell.

        It was Vitali, and it was from 2004

            You're right, he shouldn't fight again.

            But Tyson is such a big name that immediately he would be a contender for the championship.

            Hell he can comeback for his first fight and get either of the Klitschko's, I'm sure they'll take in a second, knowing what money he would generate.

            It might even be the first real heavyweight PPV in years. (And i'm not including the crappy PPV's with heavyweights where they couldn't get their fight televised on either Showtime or HBO but the type that would otherwise be on HBO but is on PPV like Pac & Mayweather).

            Again he shouldn't fight again but if it's about money, he is still a draw.

              watch those two fights and count how many times evander (who i love) intentionally head butted tyson in the ***n face

              do i condone biting a mans ear in the ring---no way

              do i understand why tyson flipped his wig----yes

              at one point evander buckled mikes legs with a headbutt.

              i guess he should have pulled a cotto and just punched him in the nuts 6-7 times

                  When Tyson was younger than Vitali is now, just to put things into perspective. Tyson ended up fighting Danny Williams instead.

                  Kinda glad that the Tyson/Holyfield III fight fell through, time for both of those guys to retire. Both can still make money off their fame without having to get in the ring.

                    Not Holyfield. Tyson gets paid millions each year to make appearances, and was just in two movies.

                      Holyfield was in a taco bell commercial or something and I was watching like Lost and it came on and everyone in the room was like "Who the f is that." Holy suffers in the same way as the Klitschkos in some respect. Because he wasnt out raping and he wasnt a one man soap opera, he never quite grabbed the public like Tyson.
