He had better start out at a low level MMA organization or he will get killed.

He may learn some in 3 years then fight in mma. If Bob Sapp made it then why not him? Japanese will love this guy

Sapp would kill him.  Yes, we all know that Sapp is just an okay fighter but I would put all my money on him over Ford.

      Ford is just trying to get publicity. To be famous for being famous, gain a larger following. Make some money. He sure looks the part. Why spoil that with reality. He will never fight and ruin the illusion.

On a side note a friend of mine was a journey man heavy weight fighter. He knows the fight game. He said prior to an Atlantic city Tyson fight  he got to see him hit the heavy bag in the days before the fight. This was Tyson in his prime. He said the first thing he noticed he never saw a heavy bag as heavy as this one was. Most heavy bags for pros are 100lbs to 200lbs. He said this one looked 300lbs. Who knows the weight? He said never in his life see someone hit a bag as hard and as fast. My buddy isn't afraid to get in the ring with anyone and he said after watching that he would have never gotten in the ring with  Tyson.

This.  He's just marketing himself for movie roles and other stuff.

That's why I said in 3 years. He can get an ok chin, a good defense to protect him from brutal knockouts and a jab to push average fighters back for a round or two. Out of his 2 millions followers there would be like 50.000 idiots to pay to watch him fight, that's alone is good money in ppv.

This is getting trendy and they're milking money out of it, even youtubers are fighting. I even heard that it is official between Mayweather and Logan paul.  ???

I can’t believe that someone actually recorded this footage, and Ford deemed it worthy to display on Social Media

True, he's been a fighter for years now and has never fought.

Unfortunately many of the younger generations even remember Tyson and just how insanely dominant that he was. Even those born in 1980 and up don’t really fully understand. They would have been toddlers and then young kids. The crazy thing is that Tyson was only 5’10” (I’ve had friends who’ve hung out with him say he might not even have been that tall). It’s a STUPID thing to even speculate - but I don’t know if there has ever been a fighter - even today’s guys - that Tyson at his very peak wouldn’t have beaten.
HA - Joe Rogan says that he widened his desk for podcasts after his last Tyson podcast because the intensity that Tyson had was scary.

It wont happen because every mma fighter and every boxer is too terrified to fight him

Who wins in a fight prime Lou Ferrigno or prime Mike Tyson?
Title: Re: Martyn Ford showing impressive hand speed
Post by: Darren Avey on December 31, 2020, 10:21:45 AM

Ferrigno obviously.  Look at the size of his arms
Title: Re: Martyn Ford showing impressive hand speed
Post by: pamith on January 03, 2021, 01:41:26 PM
Ferrigno obviously.  Look at the size of his arms
All joking aside, I think prime Ferrigno wins, I imagine prime Tyson challenging a 6'4'' 300+ lbs Ferrigno, Ferrigno starts saying ''Hey idk you, why do you wanna fight me?'' but Ferrigno is already getting angry, Tyson is like ''I'll make you my bitch, come on'', Ferrigno is like ''I don't need this bs'' suddenly Tyson punches Ferrigno in the face but Ferrigno quickly blocks the punch with his huge forearm, Tyson starts throwing a flurry of punches that would probably kill a mere mortal, but apparently this doesn't hurt Ferrigno at all, Ferrigno grabs Tyson with both of his arms and takes him to the ground at will, fast, Tyson hits the back of his head against the concrete floor and it's almost unconscious, Ferrigno starts pounding Tyson's face with his huge fist screaming ''I didn't want to do this but you made me do this!!!!!'', the police arrive because apparently someone called the cops and Mike Tyson is dead, his whole face caved in and blood is gushing out of his face and head

Regarding Mike Tyson's height - I'd say 5'10 and 3/4" at max...which is what Ronnie claimed to be in his prime...if not up to an inch shorter than that.

I check on Brit from time to time on Instagram:
