Iron Mike Has the Fight Left in Him

No one can make a comeback better than Mike Tyson.

The boxing great's latest violence-related arrest is a bump in the road in the his turbulent career and nothing more. The man has been in and out of jail, dabbled in drugs and alcohol and gnawed someone's ear off -- yet he has managed to climb his way back to the top each time.

Tyson, 43, is a master of reinvention: he's been considered a convict, a movie star and a husband (to three different women) within a short span of time. He retired in 2005 but it was clear has career wasn't over. Tyson's recent biopic documentary elicited sympathy from the same folks who years prior considered him a monster. He won them over yet again.

Just last Saturday the legendary fighter, who at 20 was the youngest ever to win a title, stood next to Don King in Vegas and fielded questions about a possible comeback. And though he may face charges stemming from the LAX spat with a photographer, no one's knocking Iron Mike's lights out.
