Why is everyone picking on Tyson? Tyson was finished after his first fight with Holyfield. Lewis beat a shadow of Tyson.

If he has been testing negative all this time then why didn't he start his comeback 5+ years ago when he actually had a shot at doing something! I wouldn't mind boxing having a senior league like in amatuer baseball though. That way all the old fogeys like Tyson, Holyfield, Bowe, Lewis, Morrison, etc, etc, etc, could still be somewhat compettitve!

I think Morrison saw how Joe Mesi was able to comeback to the ring after being banned by the Nevada Athletic Commission. The big difference here is obviously that Morrison's "condition" can be harmful to his opponent while Mesi's "condition" is just harmful to himself.
