Tyson-Holyfield 3 In October! Please Let this Be Wrong!

[Boom Boom]

According to this sorurce it looks like it may really happen. I was so hopeful with Mike weighing more now, he had moved on from boxing for good. Obviously its a payday for both. This is very bad news and I hope it turns out to be incorrect.

I hate to say it but I would be excited to see this. I know both men are way way past their prime's. But if they are talking bigger than 34 million dollars. That would solve both of their money problems. I for one know I would buy this a PPV. Yes just for the names and who the hell cares. I would like to hear who wouldn't want to see this when it is sign and sealed for Oct.

I must admit I'd pay for this fight. But IMO there is no other way it will end other than Holyfield making it 3-0.

Its just sad to me. I can understand Holyfield wanting the fight. Hes been active and it would be a decent payday and a very winnable fight for him. But, Tyson has said that he doesnt have the heart for it anymore. He is no longer a fighter, and doesnt want to be. Hes 20 years past his prime and as he said his career ended after he fought Douglas. Since then its been about the money and publicity. Obviously with the weight gain, he wasnt planning a return, but maybe he needs the money and this is the easiest way to get it. Just sad that it may have came to this.

I've been watching video of Holyfield lately. He has got to be the dirtest fighter I've ever seen.

Personally the dirtiest fighter I've ever seen was some guy who's name slips my mind. Anyway I have seen him do some vulgar things but one time he even went as far as to bite his opponents ear not once but twice in a fight!

Oh yes that's right his name is Mike Tyson.

LOL That was pretty dang funny.

BTW, folks, the Tyson documentray came out to today on R1 DVD/Bluray

Holyfield ought to pursue a rematch with Valuev instead. If he can get that title then maybe a goodbye payday versus Tyson would be worth a nice payday for both. At this point I really don't worry about either fighter. They are in no condition any more to inflict serious harm on each other.

Tysons been doing his training at A Shoneys buffet as of late,just dont see this happening.Holyfield should retire knowing he was screwed vs.Valuev,As high a note that he can hope for right now sadly.

[Kirkland Laing]

Holyfield would do it. He needs the money. The question is would Tyson's creditors let Mike keep enough of his earnings from the fight to persuade Tyson to fight again.

Tyson has made a statement that it is just a rumor, and so is the rumor about his getting engaged to a girl from England. Just read it on fightnews.com. Happy its untrue.

I started this thread in january, not sure why it was dug out of the archives, but its never gonna happy...as for Holy, anyone hear anything about his fight that was supposed to happen in Africa?
