Tyson, the casuals favourite boxer, never faired well against taller bigger men who had strength to keep him off and Mike would have been totally busted up by that piston Holmes jab
    Holmes very well may have beaten Tyson, but that isn't at all how the fight would've gone. Comparing Douglas to Holmes? No offense, but you're weird!

      The Legends League could really be on to something here.
      I'm with you on that. Let these old timers do their thing.

        Hopefully these exhibition matches with these retired fighters don’t get out of hand. Not to mention these youtubers with single digit fights making more money than a lot of top prospects and contenders. Boxing is turning into a sham with all these internet celebrities taking the spotlight away from real fighters who’ve fought their way to the top the hard way. I guess we have Floyd Mayweather Jr. to thank for that.

          Buster Douglas was obese, diabetic and over 400lbs while he was in his mid 30s in the 1990s.

          I doubt another quarter century has done his health and physical condition much good....

            How fat is Buster these days? Is he still over 400 lbs?

                Can Buster even be medically cleared to fight? I mean probably he can with the sh^tty requirements to be licensed, but I guess the real question is should he? This mofo was in a diabetic coma for 11 days or some sh^t iirc.

                  I'm looking at a Vlad TV interview from a month ago & I'd guess he's 280 to 320. He looks like he'd have trouble keeping up with a slow treadmill & doesn't look anything like a guy who should entertain fighting with anyone above a nervous guy over a grocery store parking space.

                    Buster doesn't look too healthy, he looks every bit age, actually even older.

                    Tyson would finish him quick. He won't hold back on Buster like he did with Jones.
