What do you guys think, does he deserve yet another chance to get out of debt?? He's scheduled for 7 fights coming up to help him make some cash. I say throw him in jail where he belongs, this guy has some major problems.

Give him another chance.
I do mean impression of Mike Tyson. So as long as he and others like Bill Clinton and Micheal Jackson can stay in the limelight I can get a few cheap laughs.

Everyone here should watch the Beyond The Glory "Mike Tyson" on fox sports net and then come and give your opinion. My opinion of him definitely changed after seeing it. Yes, I still think he is an incredibly unstable person, but he is also a product of his enviornment. He has had a horrible life, and while I don't condone his behavior, I do sympathize with the man.

I totally disagree with "product of their environment" people are who they want to be. People can have a horrible childhood in many different ways and still turn out ot be great upostanding samaritans. Just the same as a rich and privelaged person can be the biggest piece of trash that ever walked the face of the earth.

Amen Estone!
At some point every person has the choice to correct themselves or continue down the path of their 'environment'.

The problem is that Mike was not only abused in his childhood, but also is continually taken advantage of by people like Don King, and he is stuck with them because he needs the money to get out of another situation where he did wrong, something which probably had something to do with the very people who he has to turn to in order to get bailed out. Its a never ending cycle. Like I said, I'm not Tysons supporter, I just understand that his problems may not be all his fault.

Oh, and no one here can deny that he is one of the most powerful fighters to ever walk the earth. Its actually really scary to watch his fights.

his problems may not be all his fault.

Man, Life happens. You don't have control over most things in your life, sometimes things don't work out. What do you do when life hands you lemons? You have to make a decision to perservere, do the right thing, pick yourself up, or choose to lay there saying 'Woe is me'. Is it really possible to be a 'victim' your whole life? Only if you choose to be.

I don't feel to bad for people who had greatness and squandered it. Yeah he was a great fighter but that was then. Letting a despirate, ear bitter back in the ring would not be good for the sport of boxing.

Well, I feel that if I watch him fight then I am somehow giving him money. We already gave him 400 million. That's more than enough for this looser, product of his environment or not. I will never watch him fight again no matter how scary he is to watch.

Meh, I'm done arguing. Try and catch the show and see how you feel then. Your not going to change your mind about him being a good person, but it gives good info on why he is the way he is.

I say let him fight. I wanna see him get his butt whooped like he did in his last fight against the guy who's name I can't remember at the moment but still beat the crap outta Tyson.

He was a great fighter, he is a waashed up has been as of now. Lets see him do what Foremans old ********* has done at his age. tyson would never be able to come back and regain the title at the same age Foreman did it. That is what seperates the all time greats from the greats at the time. As far as it being scary, not really i just want to continually grab onto my earlobe for some reason.

I have always admired the older fights of tyson but must agree now he is just going insane. Lets just hope he doesnt make a grill like foreman for ear grilling imo let him be just another crazy mofo running around seems liek hes getting beat up anyways maybe somone will knock some sense into him sooner or later
