Yes, he does.
Am wondering about the weight he will be coming at into this fight. It has been changing during the last couple of years like never before in his entire career.
In 2000, he always weighed in about 223 pounds. Then, in 2001, he came in at a career high of 239 lbs. In 2002 as he faced Lennox Lewis his weight was 234 punds, in 2003 versus Etienne he was back to 225, against Williams in 2004 he weighed in at 233 pounds, but Tyson wanted to get re-weighed because he could not believe he was that heavy.
My prediction for his bout in June: 229 lbs.

Looks like Kevin McBride is taking the fight seriously - I really hope so.

I expect Kevin McBride to be in the most serious trouble ...

I rewatched the fight today and must say that I am very glad to see Tyson retired. Hope he enjoys retirement.

Ouch, age and troubles both in and out of the rings soon catched up with Tyson.
Real shame, in his day he was THE boxer everyone admired for his in ring work, outside of it is disputable but thats neither here nor there. I just wish he would've retired after the Lewis fight.
