    Who cares how many ups and downs Tyson has had in his career, or how much history he knows...

    As a commentator, you're job is not to talk about your career or talk about stuff in the past..

    You're job is to talk about the fight HAPPENING, and to make it exciting and **** and make intelligent remarks...

I am not quite sure how well he will do because from many press conference interviews I have seen, he tends to stutter a little bit and also use bad grammar.

        I think Manny P would do a much better job.

                That just missed the point though...

                Without the boxing history and knowledge and ups and downs do you think he would be able to make interesting points, observations blah blah blah??

                I guess what im saying is, Tyson (with all of his career behind him) would be better than your average dude off the street who's never stepped foot in a boxing gym... because of his experience...

                  But Tyson can make good intelligent comments on boxing. He isn't as dumb as people think. I know some broadcasters who have said the same thing. People think Mike is ****** but hes actually decently smart.

                    Let's remember.
                    George Foreman's grammar wasn't that great, either.
                    He made up for it with his constant arguments with Larry Merchant and his explanations that were way off.........basically he was funny.
                    I want him back.

                      Big George had to be loved from the minute he put his name on a whole load of plastic.
