Comments Thread For: Mike Tyson: I'll Be Better in Next Exhibition - I Will Do It Again!

Mike looked better than I expected, even if all the holding really took the steam out of the contest, especially with it being a short fight with two minute rounds to begin with.

They grappled because otherwise it would have been over in two rounds, the difference in physical shape was striking. I think they were acting throughout, but they are good actors nevertheless.

I'm not sure this is charity money but if it is then well done.Tyson does not have to do any more of this, there's many ways to raise money other than putting your life on the line and tarnishing the sport that made you.

I see, this is your lucky day, you will feel alive again for a change.

To answer your question, I do not mind. It is fun to make fun of everything involving America's Favorite Rapist. One of the best things about it is his fanboys are so bothered by it, my posts are deeply ingrained into their minds as they follow me around reminding me of it, while I actually don't remind most of them myself. Their existence is that insignificant to me.

There, acknowledgement. You can feel like your life has meaning again, boy.

Thanks, man of god!

The WBC and their ****** belts are as bad as this pathetic event and show just how corrupt they still are.

why would he promise to do better, or even "fight" again, he pulled his punches and carried Roy, he had clear openings for counters if he wanted them and landed pitty pat shots on Roy. Before the fight I thought he would get too amped up and KO him if not on purpose then by accident but he surprised me.

early rounds he was easily ducking below Roys sloppy shots and coming back up for the hook counters, looked about as good as he could for a 54 year old

I bet even now as Foreman is quite old and slowed down, Tyson would still duck him hard just like he did in his prime. Childhood nightmares never go away.

Tyson was publicly calling out Foreman in 1990, which is well documented and even televised (Tyson's Interview with Mike Marley in 1990, before Alex Stewart fight, when Tyson stated: „Hopefully I will fight George Foreman before he dies of rigor mortis“). Years after, in an interview with Max Kellerman (in 2019), George Foreman openly admitted that he never wanted any part of Mike Tyson in the ring. Everything else is just thirdhand stories and media speculations. During that short timeframe, when the fight could actually happen, Tyson KO'ed Tillman and Stewart, than won in two competitive fights (1KO, 1UD) against Razor Ruddock and went to prison, while Foreman KOed two journeymen in Lakusta and Anderson and went the distance in a competitive fight against Holyfield, although he lost by UD. What could actually happen in the fight between Tyson and Foreman in '90-‘91, we'll never know. You are free to dislike Tyson for he's behavior back than though.

ps. sorry for my poor English

Tyson Bruno 3 next . Big Franks still in shape , he still wants a piece of Iron Mike

After watching that depressing Dubois fight I watched Tyson Bruno 1 and wow, what a difference, they were like 10 levels above.

I don't think Bruno would fight again though.

Which is probably the only time Tyson ever even mentioned Foreman publically during his fighting career. It was a bluff, nothing more.

Because Foreman had been calling Tyson out for many many years. Before he even started his comeback in the 80s, regularly while Tyson dominated the late 80s, after Douglas beat him and even after Tyson came back from prison. Tyson was the reason he even came back to boxing because he knew he'd destroy Tyson with his style. Foreman in his later, elderly years is only saying nice and contradictory things nowadays. His words today should be taken with a grain of salt.

So taking both sides into account, it could have only been Tyson refusing this fight. It fits with his history, as Tyson has avoided every single fighter who was a puncher with a great chin. And his era contained more of them than any other era in boxing.

Tyson's a coward. He's been one since he was a kid. knocking out old granny's to rob them and as an adult raping and beating defenseless women. It's ingrained in him, that's why he mentally quit every time an opponent stood up to him and ducked the Foreman's of his time. If he can't be the bully he's nothing.

It was a decent bit of fun, not worth analysing the fight

Good to see Mike being able to enjoy doing something he once had a passion for and seemed to grow to resent, or at least associate his boxing life with his past issues in life.

He seems to be in a good place and can have exhibitions and enjoy boxing again for a good cause

That’s all I took from it.
