    "In October 1991, Tyson injures cartilage in left rib cage while training for fight with heavyweight champion, Evander Holyfield. The fight is called off after Marion Superior Court Judge Patricia J. Gifford denies motion to postpone the **** trial."

    well i guess maybe down the line.but it was suppost to be tyson vs.holyfield. instead of buster douglas

      thats who it is buuuuut when he's on a ppv there there to watch it. or if he's in a game like he's going to be in fight night there going to pick him first most likely.ppl dont have hardcore fan bases for no appart reason. if so where's golotas and ruiz's hardcore fans.

        I agree Mystyal, I am a big Tyson fan myself. And I believe there are many others who like him, but don't want to admit it. Hey check my profile, I added somthing...I am not sure if you have seen it or not.

          its not about hating i like tyson a lot, love his fighting style, but that wont change the fact that is waaay overrated, he had the potential and didnt use it.

            i jus saw it thats pretty tight. but me myself like to concentrate on tyson of the 80s cause the way he carried himself jus seemed invincible.i follow his style of the 80s to a tee. but i still really cant look at 90s and beyond fights cause it really makes me pissed to see what he threw away.i watch his fights in the 80s like everyday for at least 3 hours. so when ppl say tyson didnt do something in the 80s i start to laugh at there dumb ass cause i know i got the ****in fight collection and there probably noobies of tyson.

              Yeah, I got Tyson's whole collection. The only fights I really like from the 90's was his fights with Botha and Bruno. Did you say Tyson is in Fight Night Round 3?

                i am no means a "hater" But I think Iron Mike was overated.

                A champion born of sly matchmaiking.

                I personally don't think he's even Hall of Fame worthy really.

                But with some of the bums they've let in already, they may as well let Mikey in too.
