Mike Tyson back?

[slith2]

If anyone has seen the video of Iron Mike working the pads and saying he's back at 53yrs old, I suggest don't buy into it. Sure he looks ferocious, and for 2 maybe 3 rounds he could be. But after that he would tank. The mind says yes, but the body says no.
I don't say this out of disrespect, just experience. I took 5 years off from work. It took me a full year to get back into my skill set and it wasn't easy. I was feeling better than I had in years. Then this covid virus put my working life on hold. Been 2 months now and it'll take me a few months to get that back again. I'm 2 years older than Mike and my work is no where as demanding as his is.
I wouldn't bet my house on him tbh. Kinda my point here

Boxing ! now there Is a lost art Slith ?

no training no gaining, 5 rounds and two towels each, head gear one would hope.

Being our age Mon Amie, I lost the fight between the Sport and the Money Show. Lost the appreciation for the physical attributes.

Could be better than the 'fake shenanigans' (good name for an Irish Folk Group) of normal everyday sport, But would not bet on It...

TPTB will be implementing the survival of the gloves off soon so fuck the lockdown,.........train well and keep us posted friend

Will do old friend.

That would be a great name for an Irish band.

Cheers!

I hope he doesn't fight anymore.

I don't want his mystery solving skills to be negatively impacted.
