Tyson is capable of beating Lewis or any other fighter today.
He is the prime example of why Don King specificly and promoter/managers in general should be banned from the sport.
That is my experienced two cents.

Cowboy is right. Tyson needed the cash, that is why they aggresively found a state that they could fight in. You add in Tyson's antics in a attempt to draw veiwers, and you get a fight with someone desperate for cash who has no intention of really mixing it up. Hat's off to Lewis, he studied Tyson's moves and just ate him up so to speak.

I loved it when Tyson got his butt kicked by Buster Douglas and along with when Holyfield did it and with Tyson's past I just don't understand why all these states keep giving him a license to fight any where anymore. I am just glad he got SOME of the butt whoopin he deserves. He should just quit now while he can he had his day in the spot light and now it is time for him to move on. I hear Midas is looking for a spokesman since Foreman is for Mienke. Or he can come up with the Tyson deep fryer and sell a million of them

If Tyson promotes Midas, that would be one more reason I will never go there again; the other being the way they ripped off my wife!

Tyson threw the fight? are you kidding me? a 20 million dollar punching bag? what? do you really think mike, with all of his finacial problems which total MUCH more than he got for this fight, would throw a fight for 20 mil when if he had won he'd make twice or more per fight being champ again and having a rematch or fighting any other challenger? come on!

Lewis is and clearly has been the better technical fighter. he doesnt have the chin of most but he gets it done.

wrong. tyson wasnt conditioned enough to go past the 3rd round. it was his chin that got him any farther. mike destroyed mike, nobody else is to blame. he's a one puch type fighter. a "hay maker" brawler. thats why he bit holyfeild....he knew he was gonna loose. he wasnt ready to go any farther and if he did, he knew he'd get beat.

i somewhat agree that mike could beat any fighter today. he HAS the power and the chin to put most of them away, but he just doesnt seem to be able to go into the later rounds with anything. its sad cuz he would have been one of the greatest fighters in history if he would have been able to control himself.

The only round he may have won was the 1st because he was the aggressor that round. By round 4 he lost his wind. He needs more rounds under his belt(not 19 rounds in 5 years, that he has) and better conditioning.

TWO WORDS.........DON "chia pet" KING.....oh, that was 4 words.

Cus D'Amato wouldn't have put up with the antics that Mike did when King took over. Cus is probably still rolling over in his grave at the whole thing anyway.
