MediaTakeOut.com is reporting that Mike Tyson has tentatively agreed to fight, streetfighter, Kimbo Slice.

A ProElite insider claims that the two are scheduled to fight, “late this year or early next.” However, Kimbo must first win next Saturday’s match against James ” Colossus” Thompson.

If these rumors are true Tyson has a lot of training to do. He is not exactly in fighting shape anymore, see Mike Tyson, from fit to flab.

Kimbo on the other hand is at the top of his game. He has had three sanctioned MMA fights all of which he has won in the first round. He beat MMA fighters Rob Mercer by submission (Guillotine Choke) in 1 minute and 12 seconds, Bo Cantrell in 19 seconds by TKO, and Tank Abbott in 43 seconds by KO. Kimbo is definitely a fierce competitor and as Maxim magazine put it, “Kimbo Slice is simply the toughest man in America.”

Check out this video of one of Kimbo’s fights.

So what do you think? Does “Iron Man” Mike Tyson even stand a chance? I think not!

UPDATE: EliteXC Live Events President Gary Shaw has issued a statement, denying rumors of a scheduled fight, saying, “I’ve had no discussions with Mike or anyone around Mike.” However, he did go on to say that if Mike Tyson was willing he’d, “make that fight in a heartbeat. Call it a freak show or a circus or whatever you want, but it would be the most watched pay-per-view event ever.”

Kimbo’s trainer and former UFC Champion Bas Rutten said, “We don’t want him to be treated like a circus act, because he he’s not.”
