[1] McBride's career-defining performance was a victory over Mike Tyson, former undisputed world heavyweight champion.
Since his fight with Mike Tyson, McBride beat Byron Polley, then suffered three upset losses.
After three years inactivity, McBride, the 'Clones Colossus', attempted a comeback in an eight rounder on 10 July 2010 at the Mid-Hudson Civic Center in Poughkeepsie, New York, but lost every round—and the bout—in an upset to cruiserweight veteran Zack Page, a journeyman with a losing record as a professional.
McBride ended his career after losing to Mariusz Wach on 29 July 2011 during a boxing gala held at Mohegan Sun Casino, Uncasville, Connecticut.
