It looked like a hard hit (it would prolly kill me), but this is the #3 and #7 comptetitor in the Black Rhino. When I saw it live, I thought he was ok and would get back up, but he just laid there. After a few replays though, he may have gotten knocked out for a second and not had his bearings to get up.

After the match, Tyson told mini-Schaap that he didn't know if he was going to keep boxing. I actually feel sorry for Tyson more often than not now, and I hope he does retire. He is a side show and the tattoo proves that. Just save a few years of your life and get out.

It looked like a rocket shot. I'm not sure it was a dive(granted the Rhino was a top challenger) because that looked like one of the better punches Tyson has thrown in awhile.

He needs to retire. Even though most of his money was taken by Don King I'm sure he still has *enough*.

Maybe it wasn't a dive. My roomate said the first time they showed the Rhino before the match, he saw the look on his face and said "It's over in one."

Him taking the mouthpiece out may have been him saying "I'm not going through that again."

Also, the way he was smiling afterwards contributes to this theory, he was glad to get his money and still be able to walk around, that's all he cared about.

This is an interesting situation I hope we talk about tomorrow on the STSS.

FIX!!!!!!!!

If you are truly KO'ed, then how do you have the ability to remove you mouthpiece as soon as you hit the canvas?

Actually thats almost a reflex action, I have seen alot of fighters do that.

I am not saying it wasn't a fix, but just because he removed the mouth piece doesn't mean he didnt have his bell rung.

Still Mike needs to retire before he goes in there again with someone who can actually take a punch.

I think Iron Mike is a sad story, he needed a strong trainer like he had at first to keep him on the straight and narrow. Once he lost that influence he fell back into the wrong crowd, and the rest is pure Lovecraftian horror.

That being said, I think he is the greatest puncher ever. 44% of his fights end in the first round, this fight was only the 6th shortest of his career, if I remember correctly this is the 8th or 9th fight that has lasted less than one minute.

      Former Drake Guard Atin Wright commits to North Texas

      It's easier for us to say it's fun since we're not the ones who have to recruit an entire new team every year, but it's honestly exciting to see how the new team is built. The max exodi of beloved players sucks, but in this new age losing guys like TP, Drez, Rubin and Aaron doesn't have to mean a several-year rebuild. Now we can "retool" and even get better. I think this year was more of a gut punch because it felt to me and many others that Rubin and Aaron were Mean Green for life. They've been the constant leaders throughout the past turnover. But even healthy we weren't the most talented team in the conference. And I trust Hodge. The past seven years Grant and Hodge have run a clean program and as much as I love the guys who have played for us, I trust Hodge and Forte will continue recruiting players who will be good representatives of the university, even if only for a year. I also agree we need two more PF's - at least one who can space the floor shooting 3's. Assuming we have at least three scholarships left, so assume we'll see another guard. I'd like to see us bring on one guy who's averaged 18PPG or more. Doesn't matter which position though it'd be a nice changeup for it to be a high scoring big man.

      The last home games of the 2023-24 school year

      Weather has become a factor in a lot of games this season. Wet spring has really made this softball season pleasant. Feel like we had several 90+ degree games last season.

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Here's what the conference tournament would look like if it started today. Finished 2nd or 3rd is the difference between having to win just two games in two days, or four games in four days. Wednesday, May 8 - First Round Game 1: No. 5 Wichita State vs No. 8 South Florida - 10 a.m. (ESPN+) Game 2: No. 4 Tulsa vs No. 9 UTSA - 1 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 3: No. 6 UAB vs No. 7 East Carolina - 4 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 4: No. 10 Memphis vs No. 3 North Texas - 7 p.m. (ESPN+) Thursday, May 9 - Second Round Game 5: Winner WSU/USF vs Winner Tulsa/UTSA - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 6: Winner UAB/ECU vs Winner Memphis/UNT - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Friday, May 10 - Semifinals Game 7: Winner WSU/USF/Tulsa/UTSA vs No. 1 FAU - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 8: Winner UAB/ECU/Memphis/UNT vs No. 2 Charlotte - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Saturday, May 11 - Championship Game 9: Winner Game 7 vs Winner Game 8 - 11 a.m. (ESPN2)

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Yes, win 2 of 3 in Charlotte and should be at least Top 2. If we do that and there's a three-way tie for first at 19-8, I'd imagine we'd take the top spot because we'd be 4-2 vs. the field, FAU 3-3, and Charlotte 2-4 in that hypothetical. Thanks! Wasn't able to watch that game, just kept up on Twitter.

      Regardless of what happens tomorrow.....we need to win 2 of 3 in Charlotte....right? As to backup catcher Moffitt......in our last game at Memphis....she tripped over first base....and fell on her wrist. I'm guessing it's a sprained wrist. As to backup catcher....I don't think we have one. But they used Olguin to warm up people in the bullpen. And remember on Kalei....she had to catch 16 innings last night.....and today's game was early. So might just be gassed. Go Mean Green!!!
