tunaplanet 0 #1 July 31, 2004 Anyone watch this fight? Tyson, who owes tons of money decided to start a comeback towards the title to pay off all of his debts. He chose for his first fight British Heavyweight Champion Danny Williams who in retrospect is just not that good compared to many heavyweights over here. Short version. Williams laid him out in the fourth (I think). It brings a smile to my face to see this worthless pieve of shit get his ass handed to him.

lawrocket 3 #3 July 31, 2004 Yep. Of course, his creditors are pissed, too. He can't make enough money now to pay them back. I think someone has put Tyson on some serious anti-depressants. He's just too much of a totally broken man... A piece of shit, but broken, nonetheless... My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A piece of shit, but broken, nonetheless... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That must truly suck to be a broken piece of shit. I saw the end result on the news this morning and found it odd that he would have a trainer named ROACH~~April Camelot II, the Electric Boogaloo!

tunaplanet 0 #7 July 31, 2004 QuoteHe should of hung em up!!! ROFLMAO. Yeah, I'm sure with all of Tyson's intelligence and advanced education he could pay back the 38 million he owes with no problem. Forty-two Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dustin19d 0 #8 July 31, 2004 LOL, well put Tuna.... I wasn't refering to his Debt, I was refering to his skill as a boxer. I know he has doug a hole bigger than he can get out of. I'm not that young, I remember watching the Tyson V.S. Douglas fight when I was a wee little one I couldn't believe he got beat........ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tunaplanet 0 #9 July 31, 2004 QuoteI'm not that young, I remember watching the Tyson V.S. Douglas fight when I was a wee little one I couldn't believe he got beat........ Tyson never looked the same after Kevin Rooney left him. His first fight after Rooney left him was with Frank Bruno. Even though he won in 5, it was clear he was not the same fighter. It was the first fight he was noticably hurt and pushed around. 2 fights later he gets beat by the unknown James Douglas. The rest is history.

tunaplanet 0 #12 July 31, 2004 Him and Cus D'Amato. D'Amato actually adopted him. If I'm not mistaken, D'Amato died before Tyson fought in his first professional fight. D'Amato's death really tore Tyson up. Forty-two Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tunaplanet 0 #13 July 31, 2004 QuoteLets no go to far back.. Frank who?? Extremely talented British Boxer. Big motherfucker too. He won the WBC title. He was one of the great ones. His downfall was always seeking out the best. His losses came from greats like Tyson, Lewis, Witherspoon and Bonecrusher Smith. Forty-two Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimbarry 0 #14 July 31, 2004 QuoteOf course, his creditors are pissed, too. He can't make enough money now to pay them back. They loans their money, they takes their chances. Sure, it's ultimately Tyson's responsibility, but we're not talking a car lease, student loans, or a $500 Visa bill here. A bunch of creditors accumulating a balance of a combined $38M to a thug-felon who only has one risky path for paying it back is, well, ...risky. But yes, happy to see him bloodied and on his ass? Sure, why not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #15 July 31, 2004 Whether true or not, word is that Tyson tore his left knee meniscus in the first round. If so, that would explain his lack of ability to throw the right hand... My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rdutch 0 #16 August 1, 2004 Worse part about it was I lost a $1 bet to RkyMtnHigh because of him. Best part about it was me and her got to hang out with some drunk ass people to watch him get knocked the fug out. Thinking about that, she owes beer for her first tracking dive.

Casurf1978 0 #17 August 1, 2004 When was the fight Tuna? Maybe HBO or some other network will rebroadcast it. You have to admit though that at one point, way back when, Tyson was a great boxer. Now I just look at him and actually feel pity for for the POS. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unstable 9 #19 August 1, 2004 It's hard for me to believe that Mike Tyson, of all people, is in over his head. There is no reason, other than his own stupidity, for him to be in debt. =========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(in hindsight,I wish I bet more...lots more..like $40)...nuh uh...I don't owe beer anymore..I paid up! That tracking dive was so freaking fun!
