Tyson fight tonight

[utmt40]

Anyone watching this?

[RYL]

I am.

[Voltron87]

he is so [censored] crazy

i just watched a clip of him yelling at reporters for trying to like him, since he hates himself.

[utmt40]

Boxing runs in the family here and me and my dad are going to check it out later. I was curious as to how many of you were going to take a look. I think Tyson should run through this guy tonight.

[Burt Reynolds]

What channel ? HBO or something ?

[partygirluk]

Isn't this $50 pay per view? How is it worth paying $3000/hr to see this beating?

[RicktheRuler]

I think so too. This guys is huge though, I think hes like 67 270 or soemthing. Should be interesting.

[partygirluk]

This tells you all you need to know. (http://boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=004195)

[utmt40]

I think Tyson finally has his head on straight and he is really sounding like the Tyson of old. Also, this guy is the biggest fighter Tyson has ever had to face. Should be interesting.

[Voltron87]

so is this a total mismatch? i dont know crap about boxing.

This is so uninteresting. I find it sad that this fight gets so much attention when a genuinely interesting one like Hatton v. Tsyzu gets none.

[partygirluk]

Yes.

[utmt40]

Check out the date too. 7 years ago....

[Voltron87]

in whose favor? tysons? is it that tyson is getting a softie to destroy, or that tyson is just done for and should retire?

Tell that to the morans in sports betting. Easy win for Tyson.

[partygirluk]

McBride is so slow you will seriously think there is something wrong with the TV tonight. He can't take a punch. He has never beaten anyone even 1/4 decent. He is easy to hit. The only way this goes more than 2 rounds is if Tyson chooses to let it. It is a total and utter mismatch.

[partygirluk]

[/ QUOTE ]

Tyson is done for and is only fighting because he has $50 million or so of debts. He is fighting a complete tomato can. Just because he is 270 pounds does not mean he has a chance. They might as well put Talk2BigSteve in with Tyson, in fact don't be surprised if that turns out to be his next opponent.

[Burt Reynolds]

Are you really a girl, partygirl ? I'm having my doubts after reading some of the posts here.

[mcb]

It's likely going to go more than two rounds as Tysons corner wants him to stay in the ring and work McBride slowly to get him back into fighting mode. Tyson has at least four or five more fights after McBride and this is more or less a warm up/practice for Mike's future fights.

[Tron]

I plan on downloading it off LimeWire tomorrow morning.

[partygirluk]

No

[utmt40]

I agree that Tyson should kill this guy but at the same time the guy your saying beat McBride was 7 years ago. McBride has won his last 7 fights by KO or TKO.

The Heavyweight division is awful at the moment. The last thing a fighter loses is his punch, and Tyson can still punch damn hard. He has the chance of beating almost any heavyweight if he can land some big punches early on. But he will never be the World Champ again.

The heavyweight division was awful back then, too.. as I understand it.

IMHO, yes. Tyson finally has found a trainer that he trust and will come and work for them. His new trainer is a good friend of his and I wouldnt put it past Tyson to make a short run at a title shot soon.

[trying2learn]

tyson is done - but against this guy he still can't lose unless he doesn't show up.

i have a friend who's getting the fight and i told him as soon as he gets three other guys committed to call me - i'll pay 10 bucks for it - and that's just in the hopes of seeing one big punch, it probably won't even be worth that.

[-Skeme-]

I thought his last fight was entertaining. I remember him wrecking the guy for a while, then screwing up his leg and it was all downhill from there.

[utmt40]

Some of you kill me. All you do is come down on people. No matter what has happened. You listen to the press and the BS they say about someone. Sure Tyson has had a rough road but he will be in the ranks after one or two good showings. Tyson finally has his head on and someone in his corner he can trust. How many other fighters do you know that retired a previously undefeated opponent? None, I can assure you and that is the Tyson we are going to see for the next little while. Bank on it!

Seriously, the money sounds good, and there are probably guys out there who would do it for a ham sandwich and a beer.

Still, you're pretty much guaranteed some serious medical expense. And people have even been killed in the ring. Maybe worse than either of those outcomes, though, is trauma that may not immediately have obvious effects, but could make you wind up like Muhammad Ali or much, much worse. Tyson doesn't seem to me to be the kind of guy who is willing to stop when the fight is won. If he has the chance to make sure you don't just go down, but go down hurt, that's like the closest thing to pleasure he's usually got going for him.

Tyson is old.

He hasn't been the same since he got out of prison. That was over a decade ago.

He's much older, and he's nowhere near as hungry.

[/ QUOTE ]

Dude, a SINGLE punch can do it.

It used to be disputed that much brain damage could be done without severe immediate trauma, but science has discovered that repeated low grade trauma -- even scuba diving, for some especially sensitive people -- can cause significant brain damage that manifests later in life, sometimes decades after the events.

That doesn't mean that severe, or even single traumas, can't do the same thing.

And again, people have died in the ring.

A good boxer can hit you several times before you fall, and even glancing blows in an inconclusive exchange can scramble your brains. Tyson is a Mack truck of a puncher. I wouldn't laugh off the danger.

For a not particularly bright guy with no particular prospects, though, 150k might be an okay deal. People kill and die for a few bucks every day, so, if you have no better alternatives or are not interested in them, why not for $150k?

Shut up. McBride has almost no chance of suffering real damage. Argument over.

[Blarg]

Umm, "Shut up" is not an argument, fool.

Do you hear ringing in your ears?

[hoyaboy1]

Ok, ok, I'll humor you.

None of Tyson's opponents, even when he was good, suffered permament damage from their fights with him. Almost all fighters who have, in history, did so due to repeated blows over time or because they entered the ring with a prior condition. Even those guys make a really, really small percentage of the overall boxing population.

If you look at MMA, for example, you will see basically nobody showing signs of brain damage - because one big blow and the fight gets stopped. They don't take 200 shots to the head in a night.

If you have counter examples, please share. Otherwise you are making a bunch of pointless posts. This guy has almost no chance of suffering real damage.

[Blarg]

Get a grip, man.

We don't know the possibility that any of Tyson's opponents suffered long-term damage yet because they're all still young men.

What part of that was hard to understand?

Examine your own thinking and reading comprehension before you start getting superior and mouthing off like a netpunk.

And again, everyone has a different risk tolerance, but that doesn't make getting hit in the head, however many times, especially by a heavyweight world champion, relatively safe.

You, for instance, might not have much to lose from being punched im the head by a world champion heavyweight boxer. So it would seem, anyway.

For others, the risk/reward ratio might be different.

[hoyaboy1]

As I expected, you have no real argument. Enjoy the fight.

[Blarg]

That was even more stupid than your original argument, "Shut up," which at least didn't make a liar of you.

Enjoy whatever it is that trolls enjoy.

[hoyaboy1]

"Still, you're pretty much guaranteed some serious medical expense."

[Blarg]

This was my understanding, too. Which I also assumed would come directly out of his fight purse. And that's if he hasn't even sustained anything dramatic in the way of injury.

American hospitals are extremely expensive. You can drop hundreds or even thousands on virtually nothing at all. Just showing up in the emergency room in the first place with virtually nothing wrong starts the tab running at a fair clip.

[Blarg]

Your reading comprehension continues to merit you not much of a break.

[/ QUOTE ]

People who think they need ER treatment with virtually nothing wrong should be charged a lot. Does anyone disagree with this?

[Voltron87]

um, yes.

[Blarg]

It's not really a choice, necessarily.

Unless you already have a regular doctor, the ER is pretty much where you're sent, no matter what's wrong with you. At least here in California. Same if you're uninsured. The ER has kind of become the "catch-all" place that people are funneled into, even for things everyone including the patient knows are nothing like an emergency.

A charge of a couple or few hundred dollars is standard as an "emergency room fee" just for showing up, before anything is even done.

Round Six
Tyson comes out swinging again. McBride is up for the challenge. They exchange in the middle. McBride presses him to the ropes. Tyson grabs his arm and twists it like he’s trying to break it. Referee Joe Cortez warns Tyson. Headbutt by Tyson. Bad cut over McBride’s eye. They check the cut. They take points away for the intentional butt. Tyson comes out with a fury. 1-2 for Tyson. Tyson uppercut. McBride clinches. Tyson left hook to the body. Tyson overhand right. Tyson is getting desperate. McBride 1-2. Tyson wild right. McBride uppercut. Tyson right to the body. McBride uppercut. McBride jab. Tyson right. McBride right uppercut. Again. McBride four punches. McBride two more. Tyson wild right. McBride pushes Mike down. He doesn’t want to get up. He wants Cortez to help him. Tyson looks hurt. The round ends. Tyson quits on his stool.

Official result: Kevin McBride TKO 7.

Big Steve /images/graemlins/cool.gif

[PhatTBoll]

I just got back from the bar, where they had a small cover charge to see the fight.
The fight looked pretty even all the way to the end. Both guys got in some good shots and it didn't look like either one was close to ending it. At the end of the 6th, McBride got Tyson in a clutch against the ropes and popped him twice in the jaw. Tyson stayed up, but it looked like McBride threw him down when the bell rang. It didn't look at all like a knockdown, but they showed Tyson on the floor with that dazed look in his eye like he did after Williams nailed him. The ref didn't count him down, he just waved repeatedly at Tyson to get up. So it wasn't a knockdown. Tyson had kind of a smile on his face when he went back to his corner, so I thought everything was cool. Then the camera went to McBride celebrating in the corner and the bar went nuts. Very weird end to the fight.

I don't know if this was in any of the reports, but Tyson basically tried to break McBride's arm in the 5th(?) round. You could tell he was getting frustrated, but he just seemed angry rather than hurt. Then he quit. He is a wuss now, kind of sad to see.

Well I must say I was disapointed. I am a huge boxing fan and grew up loving Mike Tyson. 2 of 3 judge had Tyson winning the fight, even with the 2 pt deduction. I guess I can kind of understand where Tyson is coming from when he said he lost the fire and stomach to do that anymore. I also feel the same way about some of the sports I used to play back when I was in HS and collage. At least he was honest and I still think he was the greatest boxer of all time when he was in his prime. Good night all.

Word. Can you believe some people have the balls to think they can critique boxers without being able to beat them themself???

He beat everyone he faught when he was in his prime. It doesnt matter. Quit trying to bring someone down. Besides I bet he could knock you out old or not.

So did Lennox Lewis, Rocky Marciano, and Ali (The only ppl Ali didn't beat were his final 2 fights when he was already getting ill). The people the aforementioned beat were much better than anyone Tyson beat. He was a very very good fighter in his prime. But nowhere near as good as you make him out to be. And so what he could KO me? So could Kevin Mcbride - doesn't stop the fact he is a tomato can.

Some of you kill me. All you do is come down on people. No matter what has happened. You listen to the press and the BS they say about someone. Sure Tyson has had a rough road but he will be in the ranks after one or two good showings. Tyson finally has his head on and someone in his corner he can trust. How many other fighters do you know that retired a previously undefeated opponent? None, I can assure you and that is the Tyson we are going to see for the next little while. Bank on it!

Should I, like, stop banking on it yet?

If by Unbelieveable you mean predictable, I agree.

Did you guys not see him get wasted by the last paluka he fought?
