Randy Lahey Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 (edited) Is Axl like a latter-day Mike Tyson at this point in his career? He's doing shows for the money, but he's not looking to be a contender no more. Axl really reminds me of Iron Mike at the end of his career. He still has the punching power; He's still a bit wild; He's still entertaining, but the fire is gone. Axl's no longer got the it's me against the world mentality that he started out with on the long road to Chinese Democracy.

Crazy!8 years later and the self proclaimed Serpico is sharing the stage with one of the supposed "Bad Cops," and playing the song (Patience) that the "bad cop" allegedly didn't even want to record in the first place.
