Imagine this.......even though Mike is now a has been, I still think Mike Tyson in th UFC is a money maker. The Ultimate Fighting would be Great for Mike. Mike Tyson is a street Brawler who knows how to fight and can still hit hard.
Can he survive against the following UFC stars???
A- Chuck the "Iceman" Lidell
B- Rampage Jackson
C- Tim Silvia
I think SO!~

Chuck would kick his ***
Rampage would slam the **** out of him
Sylvia would get his head knocked off his damn shoulders

Nobody wants Tyson. He's too much of a liability.
He wouldn't fight Rampage or Liddell. There's a thing called weight classes. Sylvia isn't a star. He's barely a top 10 heavyweight.
How about Minotauro, Cro Cop, Gonzaga, Couture? They would all beat Tyson. Nogueira and Gonzaga would choke him unconscious, Cro Cop would need one kick to put him to sleep, Couture would GnP him for 5 rounds. You obviously know nothing about MMA, since you called it "Ultimate Fighting"

Tyson is one of my favorite HW boxers but MMA just isn't a good fit for him. If I remember right he had a couple of MMA guys train him at it years ago and he got tooled. I think he could beat Silvia since Silvia really has no talent outside of his reach but the other MMA big guys would get him. Rampage is a great ground and pound guy as well as his stand up, Liddell is a counter puncher, he likes guys to come after him and what do you think Tyson would do?

They won't take him in the UFC, he's a boxer (past his prime), not a MMA fighter.
Another organization could take him though, maybe he could fight Kimbo Slice, that'd be a fight I'd pay to watch.

I think he's to far gone financially but it would definitely generate money & buzz for Mr.White. But who knows you should maybe see if you can choke out Dustin on the same card I'd pay to watch

K-1 would be a better fit. Shannon Briggs, Butterbean, Frans Botha, and maybe a couple more has been or also ran boxers have made money there.

He'd probably be better off joining the WWE where he could try to make a killing in merchandising and endorsement deals.

I agree with you he would be awesome, but like blingcosa said they don't allow biting or rape.
