STRONGSVILLE, Ohio - Mike Tyson says he may include bouts with women on his next tour, and mentioned professional boxer Ann Wolfe, who is 21-1 with 15 knockouts.

"She's such a prominent, dominant woman in the boxing field," Tyson said. When asked if he was joking about fighting women, Tyson said, "I'm very serious."

Russ Young, a promoter for Wolfe, said such a bout will never happen.

"That's the first we've heard of it," Young said. "No state would sanction that. She would be outweighed by 60 to 70 pounds. Ann would never entertain the idea."

The 40-year-old former heavyweight champ launches "Mike Tyson's World Tour" on Friday in Youngstown, Ohio.

Tyson said the tour was meant to be fun and raise money for charity

How sad is that? even if its a joke, I mean such a good athelete, now he's thinking about fighting female boxers.

    That guy needs to crawl back into his hole and stay there. Did he even think that statement through before blabbing it to everyone? Geeze...
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    What's wrong with him fighting a woman if she want to fight him?

    Obviously he's not gonna just run up and start beating on her. I don't think that's what he meant.

    LMAO. I knew you would be all for this!

    it's hard to figure out though. I dont know how this can be a "friendly" fight. mike tyson can seriously beat the crap out of a woman. I dont care what her record is.

    Hey you never know. She could kick his ass. I don't know how good either of them are. But it may his disadvantage to fight a woman. But there should be no testicle or tit punching.

    Well yeah, that's true, but in boxing a 70lbs weight diff is a lot for even men vs men. So it could just be very dangerous, thats all. Then again, when is fighting mike tyson not dangerous, for anyone?

    Tony Kornheiser drools over the possibility of Tyson fighting a lion.......according to him that's where this is headed.

    Her last name is Wolfe (Wolf).....a professional boxer of the female variety.

    When he is totally bankrupt in a couple years I bet it happens. The Animal Rights people might get their panties in a bunch though...

    Every round would be with a different animal. Start off small then work your way up to the lions and bears.

    mike getting knocked out by a girl?

    priceless.

    what's the matter tyson, chicken?
  • I'm not against it, I just hope the woman he fights has some common sense and thinks it over first before fighting. I dont see how it can be wrong if the woman has agreed to it.
    no matter where you go,
    there you are.

    He should fight the kangaroo.
  • There is not a woman in the entire world who could go toe to toe with Mike Tyson, no matter who they are. Doesn't he have any respect for women whatsoever? In his heyday he could probably take on that lion and just about win....LOL.

    Have we lost our way tonight?
    Have we lost our hope to sorrow?

    Feels like were all alone
    Running further from what’s right
    And there are no more heroes to follow

    So what are we becoming?
    Where did we go wrong?
  • Well, he allegedly raped a woman already, so I guess it's not a surprise that he'd come up with something already. He doesn't appear to have any respect for women whatsoever. He's a moronic douchebag who needs to crawl back where he came out from, he shouldn't even be in allowed back in the boxing ring.

    Mike Tyson is not nuts, it is the women who sign up to fight him that don't think at one time. he was the greatest fighter of ALL TIME... and probaly still is.. just doesnt want to hurt people anymore.

    Since Tyson is finally settling in as a circus act he may as well become a professional wrestler. Remember when Rocky fought Hulk Hogan in Rocky III?

    That's funny....I'd pay to see that. Well, if I didn't have a good friend with "free" pay-pre-view....then I'd pay to see that.

    Definitely. Mike Tyson + (insert anything) = disaster.
