Tyson would have been a mixed of Kevin Randleman (shear power and unbelievable fury) and James Toney (boxing only pedigree would get destroyed once taken to the ground).

Sure, if he didn't cross train. But Tyson has said himself that he'd have been all over BJJ if it had been a thing when he was young. Imagine fighting a guy with the boxing of Tyson and the grappling of Rousimar Palhares. No fucking thanks.

I'm just doubt learning capabilities of one Mike Tyson to grasp the complex movements and chess match of BJJ.

yeah, he certainly didn't study and master the fuck out of boxing, which as we all know is just two dudes punching each other and not shooting for takedowns.

Gabi Garcia fight isn't cancelled. She's going to murder that 53 year old Japanese politician in the cage.

What a fucking embarrassment.

Yeah I was getting riled up about it, but then I had the thought that it was already an embarrassment for her to be fighting a 53 year old retired pro-wrestler in the first place and I suddenly don't really care.

I'm a BJJ brown belt. There's nothing magic about it. Tyson may not be a notable academic intellect, but he's an all-time great combat athlete. Give him 6-12 months of training in his prime an he'd be dismembering dudes based on his physical attributes alone. There's zero reason to think he couldn't have been a phenomenal grappler.

LOL holy shit, that isn't missing by a pound or 2. Maybe that giant bitch should stop trying to put on as much muscle mass as she possibly can. Stupid

I believe this was a setup. Meaning Gabi was either told a different weight, or told it was open weight.

We'll see in the coming days what comes out from the press. But I remember some backstage leaks from Pride that there was another example of this somewhere....Rampage I believe spoke on it, they punked him on a weight cut early in his career. The promoters make promises to fighters and tell opponents fake stuff to get them to agree to the fight.

What I am is too lazy to look up is how much she came in overweight. Clearly they were equals just a few hours ago. How could Rizin deny us of this potential GOAT fight?

Gabi will now fight a cup of noodles. Our closest shot at nudes.

She was kind of hot before she grew a dick.

I've met Gabi through BJJ,. She's literally an ogre. That's by far the most flattering picture ever taken of her, and it must have taken every ounce of the photographer's skill and a talented makeup artist.

Cus basically gave Tyson OCD, and Tyson loved it. You think Tyson couldn't have bulldogged (singular focus) his way learning bjj?

I don't think he could have dealt with getting tapped repeatedly over and over and over again.
