Anyone catch the Tyson ass beating on HBO?

[WriterDom]

In a perfect world, a castrated Tyson should have to pay 33 dollars for a beating like that every 3 months.

Fight?

What fight? Tyson fought someone?? All I saw was him kissing the floor, sad that his love life has come to that.

;O)

Tyson was out a long time ago, they just use his name for the hype.

Sad reflection of how things change in 40 years.....

Ali was a hero to 1000s/millions - poignant comments about Vietnam, poetry etc

Tyson is just a rapist thug. He should be nobody's hero.

Hey, maybe with the money he can get help, turn his life around and make something of himself.

Otherwise, my tax dollars will end up supporting him, and that's just wrong.

In that vein, I hope he gets some more paydays although the appropriate format may be the celebrity boxing format...

Oh sure, just like he did with the previous $200 million!

 

[SINthysist]

One strike and you're out?

I am not sure HE got 200 mil. I know someone did. Hell, I'd be angry at the world too...

To be used like a prostitute and then to be blamed for the results on top of it.

Gawd, we are mean pimps and johns...

Besides, for every big payday, doesn't Uncle Sam get a big cut? SOAK THE BLOODY RICH!

PS

Combining two threads...


Now all of these poor to millionaire athletes and entertainers...

Do they vote Republican?

Or do they consistantly vote to soak themselves?

from what i understand the tv company advanced tyson his fight purse so that he could pay off his debts and a second
divorce =tyson ended up with zip

See!

We need to get him in the ring again.

Call it welfare for the famous.

I mean with his resume, I don't think he can even get a job at Micky D's...

I got to see the re-play Saturday night. Man that was brutal. I hate to say it but part of me enjoyed seeing that asshole bleeding from just about every hole on his body (I wanna rematch, ha!).

What was the deal with the Ref? This wasn't a Don King fight.

I really wasn't impressed with that other guy, Lewis(?) either. He couldn't put Tyson away. That wasn't a knock out, Tyson just quit and fell down.

I'd rather watch Toughman on Friday nights...

 

[SINthysist]

I'd rather see mud-wrasslin' at the nudey bar.

And unlike Der UberSpark, I know better than to go armed with mere $1.00 bills...

Lewis boxed him the way it should be done - skill and technique, and I tell you these punches when they are delivered by a 6ft 7 18stone athlete are hard- Tyson was knocked down OK that was a big punch - OK maybe he wasnt knocked out - but he was given a real lesson in what boxing is and should be about - strength and skill -

 

[SINthysist]

There was a time when Tyson was running around teaching good boxers that fighting is about, well, fighting.

Then of course it degraded into just biting...
