    Comments Thread For: Surprise! Mike Tyson Comeback Trail Leads to Old-Timers Sales Pitch

    By Lyle Fitzsimmons - Let's all take a deep breath, folks. We've been talking about it for weeks and now it's finally official. Mike Tyson fooled everyone. Oh, sorry. Hadn't you heard? The former two-time heavyweight champion undisputed star of stage, screen and social media began making the rounds late last week with news he'd face another fossil...

      Sometimes, accepting that someone is worldwide known whatever they do while we are nobodies is really tough.

        It appears that the only one who was fooled was Lyle Fitzsimmons himself. In fact nobody else was even thinking about anything else than exhibition with some non-active boxer.

            Things are marching good in this build up.

            For the sound of it, they are giving good promotion, people in my country is talking about this exhibition match of Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones. Maybe they break the million, but maybe not. Let's see what happen.

              If these 2 almost elderly wanna get in there and punch at each other I'm perfectly fine with it. I will enjoy watching it and probably get into the build up with a little amazement that it's really gonna happen. I have NO illusions that its gonna turn into a spectacular comeback for either guy though. I say just let em enjoy themselves and make money off their names for who they once were.

                Roy Jones has no punch resistance at all. Mike is going to knock him out.

                  An umpteenth "top story" by Fitzsimmons against Tyson which gathers a grand total of eight replies, including this one.

                  Now that's what I call failure.

                    Exactly, I didn't see anybody saying Tyson was gonna kill any young guys except media people trying to gin up replies so they could, surprise surprise, write a story about how anybody who believed he was gonna fight real competition was a moron
