Wouldn`t you say he`s been shot since the Buster Douglas fight, or at least since the first Holyfeild fight and that was 10 years ago. It`s been a while since Iron Mike has been a legit contender.
Tyson is shot...

You're right..Originally posted by jabsRstiffSure, jackie, sure you have.
If you found out tomorrow that tyson was coming back, & Kevin Rooney was training him.......you'd be talking about him like it's 1988 all over again.
Kevin Rooney is the only person who can help Mike right now as far as returning goes.
If Kevin Rooney and him hooked up, I'd have no choice but to support his comeback.
Kevin carries with him the ghost of Cus.Comment

No. He peformed well against both Stewart (ranked #4 at the time...and had given Holyfield fits) and Ruddock (ranked #2)Originally posted by Kid CanadaWouldn`t you say he`s been shot since the Buster Douglas fight, or at least since the first Holyfeild fight and that was 10 years ago.

He went into decline in prison. Everything from his release on was subpar compared to before prison.Last edited by K-DOGG; 06-27-2006, 11:55 AM.Comment

Welcome to 5 years ago.Originally posted by jack_the_rippuhI've finally accepted it.
He can't make another comeback and rule the division.
He doesn't want to fight anymore and I don't think he can do it anymore.
I didn't want to believe it at first, but he's shot.

He hasnt been the same fighter ever since Buster Douglas shocked the world over 16 years ago, in hes prime he was quite possibly the most fierce and ruthless fighter there has been, he had everything in the 80s and to see him reduced to the guy that got beaten by Lewis, Williams and McBride was tragic in boxing terms
.
Tyson on hes best night could have beaten Buster, Holy and Lewis and obviously Williams and Mcbride imo they just caught him when he wasnt "That Guy" anymore.Comment

Yep. I think Lennox's victory over a shot Tyson is a hollow victory.Comment
