    He's actually been irrelevant in the sport since 2003. Lewis nailed the coffin on him and since then it was 1 fight a year against some fodder and the McBride fight was his retirement. You can't really miss somebody who hasn't been any type of factor in the sport in over 5 years.
    On the plus side, at least he's still alive. With all the drugs and stuff he's taking, you'd have figured he'd have bitten the dust by now.

    Lewis gave him such a beating, when he just started to get beat, he quit from the nightmares that would flash before his eyes every fight afterwards :clap:

    I would like to see how virtually anybody in Mike's shoes would have turned out any different than Mike. The guy had no tools to deal with, no way to make proper decisions when he was succesful and nobody to trust.

    He is depressed and has addiction issues, low self esteem and was used by people. Let him have a chance to live in a supportive monitered environment, that is a chance imo, not another venture (tours, boxing,Bollywood, etc), or another chance for others to cash in on his name.... simply a chance to get up go to the grocery store liek you and I... A chance to go to sleep without some big problem hanging over his head, just knowing that he has a schedule of activities the next day.

    I don't think this is asking too much

    After my first stint in jail, I would have NEVER gone back, by obvious preventitive measures. If hes depressed take paxil, it works. You can't tell me it won't work for him because he is too much of a victim. HE'S JUST TOO FUCKING OLD FOR THIS NONSENSE, HE IS A LOSER.

    He had plenty of activies in his life to make him money and keep him busy. What he's just been convicted of was simply a matter of being in the right place at the wrong time. He almost collided with a police cruiser and he was about to take his car on the road while drugged up and out of his mind.
    It's better to read about Tyson going to prison as opposed to Tyson dying in a car crash and killing somebody else at the same time.:dunno:

    How many times do you make the same mistakes and STILL get sympathy? Not by me, no sir :nono:

    He's an OLD grown ass man. Fuck him. He's a loser, plain and simple. GTFO with the victim stuff, that was played in his twenties :nono:

    Agreed. He's brought a whole lot of sh*t onto himself. One cannot be pitied forever. How many people do you know were stupid enough to spend $200,000 on f*cking lawncare? Tyson has to be held accountable for much of his own problems. Can't keep pitying the man.:dunno:

    It's Not THAT Cut & Dried, HANZY...

    Do U REALLY Think Tyson PURPOSELY Paid somebody $200,000 for Lawn Care???:dunno: ...No, Mike TRUSTED People in his "Circle" to Handle Daily Affairs like his Lawn, Upkeep of his Properties, Utilities, etc...

    Just like Mike TRUSTED People in his "Circle" to Watch his Money when he 1st Went to Jail...

    Considering Mike's INSECURITY & BEYOND Low Self Esteem, it was Probably EASY to Manipulate him into THINKING his Friends were Genuine...

    Next Thing U Know, Mike TRUSTS them to Handle his Affairs, TRUSTs them w/Access to his Money & he Gets FUCKED in the End...

    Peeps wanna ACT like Mike was Throwing Money Away HIMSELF, but the FACT is,there was PLENTY of People w/ACCESS to Mike's Money...Many of them R Probably STILL Rich Today, while Mike has SHIT to Show for it...

    Who hires 2 worthless dipsh*ts as his 'managers' in Horne and Holloway and gives them a combined 20% of his per fight earnings just for........doing nothing?:dunno:
    A dumb f*ck, that's who. Go to Smoking Gun and look at the archives. Tyson's expenses are off the chart.
    Dude was keeping tigers in his home, feeding them, hell even insuring them cost in the thousands alone. Guy was out of his mind completely.

    Please! That sh*t was going on for years and years. He was AWARE of what was happening to his money. You don't hire 'friends' to look after your money if you don't know how to handle your money.
    And yeah, he was throwing most of his money away himself. Dude went to England and bought every piece of sh*t item that gave him a stiff. Million dollar watches, suits, cars, the whole deal. That was the money HE was spending, not his buddies. And that's just one example.
    He was aware of everything but did nothing to help himself.

    That was funny. I wonder what the p4p champ is spending his money on when he isn't throwing it into the crowd at a 50 cent concert.

    That's not mental issues, that's plain blind ignorance. A person with real mental issues is one who belongs in the madhouse. Tyson isn't mad, he can still care for his children and walk among average folk for the most part. Dude is just......well....I don't want to make any more insulting remarks towards him.:dunno:

    I think he should be in a monitered environment. And just giving somoene Paxil is not always enough. Any time Mike ever made money a pattern emerged where he had fast friends... Mike's money was a big part of his problem.

    I mean the solution to every problem is not jail. There are monitered environments that can help a person get some support and help that are not jail.

    He had therapy with Paxil. At least he could afford the help.
