I feel like this is so disrespectful to Mike's legacy. He is a couple years away from 60. Of course there's a very good chance that he loses this fight. But if he was 20 years younger, it wouldn't even be a fair fight.

You mean Tyson's legacy of being a wife abuser, rapist, ear eater, and all around insane behavior and actions since Cus D'amato died. Tyson frick up any boxing legacy after that. He's been a joke ever since Buster Douglas put him on his arse.

Now I will give him credit, he has restored his reputation in the last decade, but don't act like his boxing career is beyond reproach.

This would be like if Michael Jordan agreed to play some random G-league player 1-on-1. It's just stupid.

Comparing Michael Jordan to Mike Tyson professionally is apples to oranges.

But he did a cameo in a funny movie so it's all good.

Agree. There have been very few even in the atmosphere of Jordan. Mike was "the man" for like 4 years. Jordan's still going strong respectfully 40 years in. He is "the man" of male athletes. .
