<p>Tyson retired from boxing last year after losing to journeyman Kevin McBride in Washington, D.C. A native of Brooklyn, N.Y., <strong>Tyson left the ring with a 50-6 record with 44 knockouts</strong>. </p><p>Should have been the best EVER...such a shame from an entertainment point of view.&nbsp; Now, sadly, I have no feelings one way or another when stories like this come out.&nbsp; I wonder how I would have felt if the story ended, &quot;...and then Tyson ran his sports car into a brick wall at 125mph &amp; was killed on contact.&quot;?&nbsp; It would be sad that another human died, but how bad can you feel for this lunatic anymore?</p>

<p>He was and is one of my top 5 favorite boxers all time. He shoul have been the best heavyweight ever, but greed and the wrong people around him really did him in. He should have stayed with the guys who brought him up and loved him. He wasnt just a meal ticket to them, he was family. But some asses in the business had to play the race card. Even after he dropped all those who&nbsp;brought him there he was still loved and treated as family.</p><p>It really bothers me to see all that waisted talent now turned into a circus show. I love sports, but when something bad happens to a team or an athlete I dont let it get to me b/c its not my life and why should I really care? But with tyson for some reason I always feel bad about the whole story.</p>

The amazing thing is he's gone as long as he has without getting into trouble.&nbsp; I was half expecting a James Brown style chase with the tires being shot out.

Yah kiddin....I never would have thought this would ever have happend again!

[DJEvelEd]

<p>Tyson had skills once. He used to move his head side to side and come at fighters. After the D'Amato/Rooney era, he slowed down, trained less, stopped the head motion, and probably took bribes. He was my favorite fighter 20 years ago. I has his picture on my wall next to Jim McMahon and Walter Payton. Now he is pathetic. What a waste of life &amp; talent ie; Darryl Strawberry. His best KO was his wife. Then he goes on TV with her and acts like a bitch.</p><p>We lost out on many great fights. Tyson should've fought Lewis &amp; Holyfield&nbsp;during the Rooney era and&nbsp;they would have been epic fights.</p><p>Don King sucks!</p><p>That's why I only watch UFC style fights anymore. Those guys are THE toughest in the world, not the lame ass boxers they parade out there now.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
