    The average promoter has very little respect for the IQ of the average fight fan.

      No disrespect, but if these two can fight, what's stopping younger talent? Oh yeah, the covid. Tyson ain't afraid of nothing, in his case, I believe. Does he smoke his own product? Where can my friend get some of this wonder weed?

        I don’t care what people think but a 53 yr old Tyson? I’ll watch and so will everybody. Especially all the OG’s who grew up on Tyson...

          Probably just a prank phone call, but Tito is too dumb to realize it.

          If Tyson does an exhibition vs any MMA guy it's either gotta be Fedor or Chuck Liddell. Tito wouldn't be among the top choice.

          I think the Holyfield charity fight is the one to make. That would be mainstream as fook just off of the ear bs from the rematch back in the day.

              Chuck would be knocked out by a staredown at this point unfortunately. And Fedor is takedown heavy puncher. Tyson would be better off vs Stipe, Hari or Cro Cop.

                Lol I don't disagree about Chuck.

                And this isn't about the best action fight to make. It's a asses in seats equation. And it's a charity exhibition ffs so I disagree about Hari & Cro. Stipe could be a good choice since he's the UFC champ & he might be the 3rd best choice behind Fedor & Chuck if they wanted to go with a MMA guy.

                  Yeah, it makes much more sense than an MMA guy. Nobody would get hurt and they'd both make a few bucks.
