Kimbo vs. Tyson

[Tycoonin]

Will it ever happen? I think Tyson would be a much better opponent than Mercer. i'd rather see that fight in Kimbo rules not MMA. Would be a dope ass fight.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

I'd like to see a boxing match between them, not MMA.

I'm not suprised Tyson would take this fight though, Tyson will fight anybody or anything if the price is right.

Tyson once said he'd fight a gorilla. Apparently he offered to pay a zoo keeper ten grand to open the cage so he could knock one out. I'd pay $250 to watch that on PPV any day.

**edit** (found the quote):

"I paid a worker at New York's zoo to re-open it just for me and Robin. When we got to the gorilla cage there was 1 big silverback gorilla there just bullying all the other gorillas. They were so powerful but their eyes were like an innocent infant. I offered the attendant $10,000 to open the cage and let me smash that silverback's snotbox! He declined."

"I'll fight any man, any animal, if Jesus were here I'd fight him too." ​

Another story is one time he was playing with one of his tigers in his backyard and it got a lil rough with him so he punched the tiger in the noise and the tiger retreated to a corner in fear.

Doubt Kimbo will be doing bare knuckle boxing now that he's going legit with MMA. And Kimbo would destroy Tyson under MMA rules.

I don't know about Tyson anymore. Something changed in his head, I don't think he has the same "I'll fight anything mentality". He is afraid to fight now IMO.

I know back in the day he apparently challenged Bob Sapp to a fight as well.

Tyson WAS a beast.. But I think Tyson would still knock Kimbo out.. MMA or boxing or streertfighting... In MMA, I dont think Kimbo would shoot him or anything, he probably has toj much pride for that.. and tyson only struggled against real tall fighters.

 

[Fucky McFuckerson]

A silverback gorilla would kill and rape Tyson...even in Tyson's prime. Any man who thinks they can fuck with a full grown gorilla really is out of mind.

2-0 that quote can't be real!
lmao that shit is funny as hell!

I wouldn't care much for a Kimbo VS Tyson match, like you I'd kill to see Tyson fight a gorilla!
Hell I'd pay to watch Peter Jackson's "King Kong II - Kong meets Mike"
A movie based on real life outcast Tyson, who redeems himself by saving the world from King Kong's wrath....

gotta agree, Tyson aint the same...I think he'll still fight alot of people but he doesnt have that mental edge in the ring anymore and I dont think he wants it that much anymore either...

but anyways, Tyson vs. Kimbo would be off the hook...

Guess you didn't watch the fight with Mercer. He shot for take downs left and right, won via guillotine. Kimbo isn't a bare knuckle brawler anymore, hes a MMA fighter.

kimbo would rock tyson

lol @ Tyson wantin to fight a silverback. Tyson woulda been RIP'd n the weirdest fashion ever! ahahahahahaha LMAO.. lol @ lookin into its eyes. Mike mustve been hittin the pipe or somethin, or that broad was strokin his ego somethin tough.

I agree with a few of u. Tyson doesnt want to put himself mentally in the position to beat someones ass anymore. I think he's tryn to grow as a person

 

[REdRUM]

Tyson would have been dead if he tried to get rough with a silverback gorilla; those fucking things don't play.

Tyson would knock Kimbo out, IMO...If I was Kimbo, I wouldn't take that fight; Mike's dirty as fuck, he'd probably kill him by savagely ripping his larynx out with his teeth.

Tyson Is An Animal. He Can Still Box And Even Tho That May Be True, Boxing Is So Mental That Even If You Have The Body And Ability To Punch Hard As A Mother Fucker, Your Mind Has To Be There First. Sadly Tyson's Mind Is Out Somewhere By The Space Station.

 

[mrrocnron]

I dont know. Tyson is a sav. So is Kimbo slice. Take boxing rules out of the picture and Tyson might go ballistic, as long as he works on grappling and his ground game. We all know Iron Mike can take a shot as well as give one. I don't know about his wrasslin' game. But, a hard shot from Tyson can end tha story...

LOL DAMN THAT MADE MY DAY!!!

 

[North Vallejo]

that foo said if jesus was here id fight him too. hahahahahahaha

 

[MOREBASS]

I don't think Kimbo could take a Tyson punch, not with no 4 ounce gloves he couldn't.

 

[JesterMIR]

A Silverback would kill Tyson.

 

[M BUTCHER 206]

Out of the dome. Why couldnt this happen? Kimbo faught old ass washed up Ray Mercer. Mike Tyson's boxing career is pretty much done. Kimbo needs to fight a real opponent. Someone like Tyson wouldnt be a bad choice. Tyson sells tickets and he would fight Jesus, a Gorilla, and why not Kimbo?
