Real deal, I got some great shots of him in training from showtime. If you want them for your site let me know, and I will email them to you.

Why not post them here?

Because they have to be on a web site to post them here, you can only link to them. The photographs were emailed to me.

They wont make any difference to me.

Tyson always looks aesthetically fit, except perhaps the Neilson fight, the truth is what he does with body that matters. And far more meaningful reports suggest he's moving for a round in sparring then just stalking with one bomb for the next eleven.

And the back problem wont help him have any flexibility in his tactics for the fight.

Quite right, I just thought they were nice looking photos.

I have heard better reports lately from those who have visited the gym. Tyson is apparently looking a lot sharper now than the first rerports which came back after the first week of training.

However, we have all heard similar things many times in the past.

I am going to have a flutter on Danny Williams to stop him around the 9th. Is this a 12 rounder, it should be if Danny's ridiculous WBU intercontinental or whatever it is, is on the line.

I dont think any WBU title is fit to even use for wiping Tysons arse.

It's a 10-rounder.

The old boy looks very tasty indeed.

Wouldnt it be great if he could win the title again.

It would be so good for both him and the game.

Thanks for the pics Wales :TU:

Let's not get carried away now. There is no way in hell I can see him beating Vitali.

I'd make Vitali the favorite, but I wouldnt write Tyson off.

I certainly wouldnt lump cash on Vitali.

Yes, he looks less 'slabby' that recently, slimmer and less bulked up, which would hint that he's done less weights and more proper stamina training.

Or less of something else perhaps? He has often looked in great condition but not had any conditioning come fight time - something shady perhaps?? Could well be the case.

Tyson was obviously on juice when he came out of prison..... you cannot change your body shape like he did....

I think Tyson is naturally muscular, and all it takes is a few weeks of heavy weight training to look in shape. I think Roach will give him a good workout.

Of course, just how much speed Tyson can get back is another matter, that is something which innately declines with age.

The pictures don't say a lot to me, because they don't show Tyson moving. I still believe he'll only look shit-hot for 90 seconds. Maybe that's all he'll need. I hope not.

Tyson's look around 1995 was so different to pre jail and to how he looks now.....

Yeah, he looks like fornicating Lou Ferrigno there!

There is another shot which I sent real deal which shows him on the pads, I did have two others, but I deleted them.
