I am CERTAIN he has mellowed. Ever seen Tyson smile at his opponent at a Press Conference before?

Threaten, bite, glare, hell he even brought in little Miguel last time, but smile and shake hands?

Never.

I don't think it can possibly be a good thing for Tyson - most of his fights are won by the time he gets in the ring - so I actually feel he is surrendering a vital psychological tool, particularly against someone like Williams.

However, he may be saving up all that pent up aggression for the ring.

I remember after decking Ettienne I think it was, he tried to help him up after the knockdown, or am I thinking of someone else?

No, that was Ettienne. I remeber the ref trying to push Tyson away. Perhaps he remembered the Tyson of old and thought he was going to twat Ettienne while he was on the floor.

though danny looked cool clam and collected last night. As the pundits said though we wont know til fight night.

A view of Danny Williams from 2004.

I hope James has recanted his views on Cayton/Jacobs, they had Mike fixed up to the be richest retired boxer ever.
