Done Deal: The Return of Mike Tyson to Boxing:

"According to a source close to Tyson, former Promoter Don King has a tentative deal for Tyson to return to the ring in late 2010. The initial plan is to have Tyson-Holyfield III, but there is rumored hesitation on the part of Iron Mike, and there is a plan B."

"A Connecticut heavyweight named Tony Grano, former cruiserweight champ, Jean Marc Mormeck, Vinny Maddalone, and Derric Rossy have all been mentioned as potential first or second comeback opponents for Tyson."

I hope he is ferocious and his defense is impregnable but I really hope he doesn’t eat any hearts.

Looks like he’s had his fill of children. If he is still hungry then we are all in grave danger.

Some people think I am a dumb, ugly human being, but really I am a beautiful ape, with exceptional verbal skills.

Dude has gone bat shit crazy!

I wonder if who ever he was talking to during the Chael fight told him to get that tattoo?

Please tell me that moustache is fake. He looks like a massive Salvador Dali.

I’m more disturbed by his stache for some reason.

Yeah, let’s put an old, very out of shape, on anti-depressants Mike Tyson back in the ring!

by BradCr on Mar 5, 2010 6:18 PM EST up reply actions  

He will be

fighting Toney in the UFC by the end of the summer.

by Riney on Mar 5, 2010 3:46 PM EST up reply actions  

Not a terrible idea , I’d watch it …just not as a main or co main event – that would piss me off

by JoelMan on Mar 5, 2010 4:24 PM EST up reply actions  

I love Randy but...

…until Randy quits being superhuman, the flood of over the hill bums making a comeback will never end.

by Daveyboy on Mar 5, 2010 6:32 PM EST up reply actions  

In his last comeback Mike appeared to have the physical tools he needed

but he didn’t seem to want to hit people.

I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.

by Llewdor on Mar 5, 2010 3:34 PM EST reply actions  

Would anybody really pay to watch Tyson/Holyfield 3?

or Tyson/Anybody at this point?

I really wish all these guys in mma and boxing would’ve saved their money better so we dont have to be seeing things like this.

by bigdmmafan on Mar 5, 2010 3:35 PM EST reply actions  

Im going to watch if Tyson fights. Alot more people will watch Tyson/Holyfield 3 than the Super Six or almost all boxing fights save for Mayweather/Pacman fights.

by xDieseLx on Mar 5, 2010 3:38 PM EST up reply actions  

Maybe Tyson/Sarah Palin

but that’s about all I can think of right now.

by Trysdor on Mar 6, 2010 12:30 AM EST up reply actions  

please mike...

quit foolin around an sign with dream an fight conseco..$$$$$$

Damn it Mike

Seems like he could be making a shit-ton of money capitalizing on his recent success in media (The Hangover, hosting WWE Raw). He should get fit and work a long-term program with the WWE. He’d make a ton of cash and would probably be able to sign a limited-date contract (ie; 20 dates per year). He seemed semi-competent when he wrestled on the show he hosted. Shit, both him and Shamrock should resort to that. Save some brain cells and pride..

In regards to Paulo...

Can someone explain what exactly is wrong with Paulo? I see all these references to him hunting ghosts or talking to imaginary people. What’s he said about his mental condition?

“One morning I woke up and found my favorite pigeon, Julius, had died I was devastated and was gonna use his crate as my stickball bat to honor him. I left the crate on my stoop and went in to get something and I returned to see the sanitation man put the crate into the crusher. I rushed him and caught him flush on the temple with a titanic right hand he was out cold, convulsing on the floor like a infantile retard.” – Mike Tyson

Tyson is so fat now….

by logan00 on Mar 5, 2010 5:15 PM EST reply actions  

Aw, man. Tyson seems finally to have mellowed out into a pretty cool guy. Now he’s just gonna go embarrass himself again.

by gzl5000 on Mar 5, 2010 6:20 PM EST reply actions  

would like to see james toney fight him,

It would give alot of exposore to mma especially if toney knocks him out

by #1 piggy on Mar 5, 2010 7:27 PM EST reply actions  

In the “Tyson” documentary he basically says every fight since the 90’s or so has been just for money and that he didn’t want to fight.

by casey manrique on Mar 5, 2010 9:08 PM EST reply actions  

Tyson can do what ever he wants……i dont care what anyone says …that dude was the baddest mother fucker to ever box….
