He's Back!

[Magpie-Fletch]

Put the women and children to bed because "Iron" Mike Tyson returns to the ring tomorrow morning our time and is hell bent on recapturing the Heavyweight crown.

I don't know much about his opponent Brian Nielsen but what I do know is his in trouble->Big trouble if Mike turns back the clock and we see the Tyson of old(hopefully).

Prediction : Tyson by KO inside three rounds.

BSA?

Smokin?

C'mon lads, lets hear it.

Yo!

Firstly, what do you think of that Zambidis fella? hahaha - posted enough about him over on the boxing site??

Brian Nielson isnt much, Danish Heavyweight, that should tell you enuff.

However, I reckon Tyson is finished. He weighed in real Heavy which is a concern, but for the life of me cant see that Big oaf from Denmark beating him, not even a finished Tyson.

Wouldnt be suprised if he pulls a botha for a while, then gets clocked and good night irene!! haha

Actually, most interested in the card. Daamguard and Calzaghe interest me. Daamguard because I hear he is a koala but have never seen him - and Calzaghe is Italian! Dont mind Calzaghe, but dont think he is anything overly special. Choc better not fight him just yet tho!

Oi Smokin you slacker!

I have posted once or twice about Greece Lightning, he could go alright-you know haha. Maybe you should sign up and make a return?

Just watched the Tyson fight and he looked slow and unfit I must say, but you got to give some credit to Nielsen who looked like a giant blob of fat and took some good shots. There was far too much holding and stalling for my liking, it will be interesting to see what Tyson does next too- Mercer? One of the Klitschoes perhaps? Tua?

Also isn't Calzhage Welsh and not Italian? Thats what I always thought. Since when have Italy had any decent fighter anyway? hahaha

P.S Enough about Choc, the Hurricane is Oz's best Super Middleweight.

Cya mate on the Boxing page once you sign up again. lol

Mike is finished.

He looked horrible. Tired after a couple rounds, no combinations.
It seems his punching power is slipping a tad as well. He seems too bulky.

Calzaghe is Welsh, wasnt born there, but lives there now. Altho, his background is Italian. His old man was born in sardinia I think.

Yea, hasnt been a great Italian fighter lately - but gee did we have some! Guys like graziano, marciano, lamotta, zale are my all time favourite fighters, just for their style, let alone nationality.

Gatti is Italian, background anyway, tough, but limited tho.

Yea, Choc v Hurricane would be an awesome Aussie matchup.

Im an really interested to see how choc goes against Waters. I have started to doubt him after that Soliman fight. He definitely has the skills, speed and power to make it, but Im not sure about factors such as desire, heart and will when the going starts to get a bit tough.

Did I tell ya I was ringside for Zambidis-Forrester? Zam looked awesome, altho Forrester is the sorta fighter which can make a nice boxer look really good, he has no movement and gets hit pretty easily.

Fair call on Tyson, I just don't want to believe he's gone to tell you the truth, oh well I might go grab his greatest hits video and remember the great man how I want to.

When you make a list like that there have been some great Italian fighters when you stop and think, I just love that movie about La Motta - Raging Bull its probably my favourite movie of all time and what a performance by De Niro.

I'm a little biased but I thnk Briggs would slaughter Mundine, the Man is only good when he can control a fight and back his opponent up against the Hurricane Paul would control the fight and would probably KO him. I'm not expecting old man Waters to trouble him too much though.

So you got to see Zam live? you lucky so and so. What about the combinations he throws? surely you must be impressed with the handspeed and power he has and he seems to have all the punches in his arsenal too e.g uppercuts, devastating hooks and he can attack the body like animal. Seriously smokin I'm impressed by this kid.
