Assuming this is true, I just seriously reevaluated my view of Fury.

Not sure how I feel about this rumoured Tyson comeback. He looks ferocious in the training video but I'm not sure how he'll cope in the ring with someone else trying to hit him.

As long as it's some other old fart like Holyfield, he'll be fine.  If he fights a halfway respectable opponent, it'll bring in cash.  If he fights some celebrity just for fun, not so much.  It would be awesome if he fought a real boxer and won.

I don't watch much boxing these days, but when I lived in the UK I watched a lot. I used to go to the York Hall in Bethnal Green and got to see some up and coming unknowns at the beginning of their career, like Ricky Hatton and Carl Froch. In all my time watching boxing, either live or on TV, I have never seen a more devastating and intimidating fighter than Mike Tyson, and I think he could still overpower many current fighters by sheer force of will. I really wouldn't want to see him have to deal with someone like Fury now though, there's no way at 53 he can walk through a size difference like that the way he used to. He'll get picked off before he lands anything.

Breaking: Mike Tyson is making a comeback and will fight Roy Jones Jr. in an eight-round exhibition on September 12.

Tyson, 54, hasn't fought since losing to Kevin McBride in 2005.

Lopez wrecked Loma for like 8 or 9 rounds. Loma started doing excrement in the 8th but too late by then.


I think my fav part of the win is the Lopez Sr was right all along and lomachenko couldn't handle Lopez, for years.
