Will we ever see a Mike Tyson like fighter ever again???

[sicko]

NOPE!

Much respect to Tyson but lets be honest, Don King did a Brilliant Job matching up Tyson with the right Opponents...but Tyson against a Skilled Boxer losing EVERY TIME if he can't land a KO with in 4-6 Rounds

Pre-Jail Mike Tyson STILL loses to Holyfield IMO

I don't want to see another Tyson, what I would like to see is a fighter with Tyson Power but with much more...BOXING SKILLS to go with that Power, a One-Dimensional Brawler is not going to do well in this ERA OF BOXING IMO...Unless they match him up with the RIGHT OPPONENTS, but as soon as he runs into a SKILLED BOXING...it will be like Molina vs Kirkland and Campillo vs Cloud...

Don't know.. Doubt it....... I think Tyson's whole personality was due heavily to the era he was born in, mixed with the circumstances. I truly believe racism and certain limitations pushed fighters before to be hungrier and more aggressive in the ring.. I know it sounds weird but psychologically I am sure it had its effects COMBINED with the circumstances they were born in.

Agree 100%

thats just not true a young tyson would have outpointed lennox.. also tyson was only naturally 200lbs and had to gain weight to fight heavy.. lennox stayed away from weights and used more cardio another advantage when age is a factor.. some of you need to get your facts straight

Tyson would get his ass kicked. Toney would teach him a lesson worse than when he whooped Holyfield.

Nah, no way. If you couldn't hurt Mike and back him up you were in for a beating. See the Buster Mathis Jr. fight for what Tony-Tyson would look like, and that wasn't even prime Tyson.

LOL at that dude saying Toney beats Tyson.

Of course there will be other over-hyped and well matched African American fighters. Just look at Kirkland and Lacy for notable examples.

Aside from maybe Muhammad Ali, nobody has made a bigger impact on the sport as Iron Mike. NOBODY!!!!

[Deeznuts]

There will never be another Iron Mike
