Mike Tyson coming to Thomond Park

djdunny

As the title suggests. Any truth to this? Apparently he's coming on the 10th of October. Wonder what he will be doing? Will it just be a meet & greet?

Fighting Katie?

Tinytony

He's looking for banana man

Might be his spoken word gigs about his career etc. If it is I won't be caught paying money for it a second time. Went to one of the nights on his last "tour" and it was a god awful affair.

He wouldn't last 5 mins outside the Chicken Hut on a Saturday night.

He has a career??
Oh right yeah, it seems he has.. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/05/02/mike-tyson-why-do-we-forgive-him.html

I think I'll give it a miss.

I hope he doesn't "sing" like he did in the The Hangover 2

Is Mike on the sex offenders list? I wonder will he have to notify Roxboro of his plan to spend time in Limerick. Hopefully he wont rape any of our women or F**K any of us lads in the a*s... Sorry i meant eat our asses alive.. WTF.. Racists and rapists in TP. What a waste of a venue. At least Munster do the stadium proud.

I'd have absolutely no time for this man. Limerick can do without him.

Chaineri

Great fighter sh*t speaker, dubious background. TYSON is a spent force in the ring, long retired and a sh*t boxer at the end figting to earn a crust after blowing his money on drugs and partying. He has little to offer on the "public speaking" circuit. Woukd rather spend my money on " pay per view" on a title fight. :cool:

Orla99

Note sure.

Keeping this short as this misogynistic, utter scumbag deserves nobodies time or effort, google search "tyson rapist cancelled"

- Latest hit is from BBC website approx 4 hours ago http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-19206558

A lot of these 'events' are being axed by communities with a bit of backbone - It would be nice to see Limerick tell this ear-biting cokehead to PFO - A good audience attendance would be alarming in fairness

You'll get those who adored the Hangover will go see him......

Melion

Wow what a bunch of fúcking idiots in here. Arguably the most talented boxer to ever get in the ring.

Love someone saying Munster do people proud but cokeheads like him aren't welcome, really think a few of the munster lads aren't fond of a few lines?

To be fair, its the raping most people are annoyed about

Who'd Chris Brown rape?

And just because some idiots will support someone who beats up his girlfriend to the point of hospitalisation doesnt make other peoples protests any less valid

fair few Munster lads have eye gouged and bitten ears I reckon!

He's here with his manager to offically open the city's new monorail followed by the refloating of the Christmas tree.



Sure it will be worth around €10m to the local economy.

Nope, definitely my favourite ever boxer though.

Read what i said. Before you go insulting people. Im not an idiot. I didnt mention coke you did! Tyson is a RAPIST and probably a violent one at that. Rapists are right up there with pedophiles in my book.

Melion

I dont care what he did outside the ring. His personal life is just that, personal. Has anyone here abusing him watched his "Tyson" documentary?

The guy was an amazing boxer. You don't become heavyweight champion of the world at the age he did without having amazing talent, but my own comment about him coming to Limerick is based upon being at one of his earlier stand up/spoken word shows (which had the very tiresome Steve Bunce as MC) and has nothing to do with Tyson's past outside of the ring.

It was an awful show with very little of note coming from Tyson and lots and lots of hyperbolic rubbish coming from the mouth of Bunce. So the idea of wasting money to see such a "show" again is a no no for me.

I have absolutely no problem with what you said Kess. You've been to one of the "shows" before and didn't enjoy it. You're not one of the clowns refusing to go because of things he did outside the ring.

It will be him talking about his career

Mr E

If he was boxing I might be interested, but a couple of hours with him chewing my ear off? Pass.

soprano123

Cant wait to meet him , Just saw the facebook page .tickets from Gleesons next Friday .. An audience with Mike Tyson

Each to their own i guess

Again with the insults. If you want to show support for a RAPIST then that's your choice. Fair enough he is an ex heavyweight champ theres lots of them, but only one ex heavyweight champ rapist. Anyone with access to the biography channel can tell you what kind of a person tyson is. Or ask his ex wife/punching bag.

Ok so ill keep it strictly about things he did in the ring. There is no excuse for biting a bit of a mans ear off during a heavyweight title fight. End of. He broke the rules.

L.T.P.

I can't wait for this, the man is a sporting legend, definitely one of the top 5 boxers ever to grace the ring, delighted he is coming to Limerick

Me neither. In fact, I'm dying for the next Gary Glitter tour.

Maybe have a read about the woman he "raped". A fame hungry woman who falsely accused another man of rape. Watch "Tyson" to see his feelings on her.

Not as hungry as Mike seems to be in that pic.
