For some reason .... I just don't think it's a good idea.

This smells of the WWE. Who cares anymore? Both are done. The only way I watch it is if it is on free TV, and then just as a human interest piece, not as a competitive fight.

Mike Tyson has hinted about a possible fight. Anybody that listens to this guy is as crazy as he is. At one time one of the best fighters to ever live, now just a joke.

Beaverboard, please translate. The comment looks hilarious, but my translation key on my keyboard is broken.

Something tells me that Stuart Mackenzie would be all for this bout. He wouldn't buy it on pay-per-view, but he'd be all for it.

Obviously Tyson was wasted. After all, "people do some stupid shit when they're fucked up."

This is an article from 2 years ago isn't it?

Tyson must be broke again.

Has Mike Tyson seen himself lately? They don't have a division for that weight class. If we're going Back to the '90s anyway, where's Butterbean?

I might watch it if it was a fight to the death.

Yzelda, apologies for the impenetrable post.

At this time, Stuart Mackenzie would like to say:

"We have a translater doon. I repeat, a translater is doon."

In the meantime, here's Pat Boone, the king of classic vanilla English diction, with his rendition of what Stuart said previously:

"For the love of god, the poor man's only got two ears to make a wee snack out of.

Hold your sign up high, Mikey: Will Fight For Haggis".

Will this make my "Tyson v. Holyfield II t-shirt a classic?

They may as well fight, Tyson has unfinished business with Holyfield's other ear.

Beaverboard, I just spewed coffee on my screen. For the second time. That is going to be on my mind all day!

This is, like, one step up from bum fighting. Or one step down. Not sure yet.
