I really don't expect to see vintage Mike Tyson anymore, but at his age I'd like to think he would try to be more of a boxer. He is at a severe disadvanted when it comes to reach in this fight and it seems he is easily frustrated by opponents landing jabs from the outside. I'm sure his gameplan will be to work inside as much as possible.
If McBride comes out with a quick / powerful jab and lands it a couple times, he has a good chance of winning, but I really don't see this happening. I'm sure Tyson has been working on closing the gap to smother McBride inside. Tyson may be way past his prime, but he definitely still has knockout power -- it only takes 1 inside uppercut and lights out!
