Forgot just what an awesome hitter he was in his prime, great speed for a heavyweight.

what a animal he was in the ring in his prime just awesome one of the all time greats.
it all started to go down hill with the death of his trainer and mentor Cus D'Amato in 1985 imo
i will always be a fan of mike tyson the boxer, but mike tyson the person no thanks
he had the world at his feet( or in his hand's) and blew the lot, shame.
great vids stu

TRUELY AWESOME ATHLETE 
Wicked video too
I have read a few books on him, and when he was in his prime he was sleeping with about 4 women a week, Once he had slept with them he would buy them a house and tell them to leave it at that
It is just such a shame that the managment let him down in the end
He was one fucking animal of a 20 year old though

Tyson would have destroyed Bob Sapp!!!! Hes just a freak show really. Seen him get beat a few times. That clip above shows how easy one punch would have nailed him.
Tyson is my favourite boxer ever. He was awesome in his day, so fast and powerfull.
Shame he blew his fortune and had to get back in the ring and get whupped by average joe's. Still one of the best ever IMO.
Might put the Tyson vid on as a warm up to the Hitman tonight.

Tyson was pure in the ring, but abit dirty, how many times did he someone once they had gone down.
And his Hollyfield earing, and outer ring behavour was bad, but think his fame caused some of that.
And Bob sapp, a over wieght slow fighter, Tyson was well to fast for him.

Tyson was one of the greats but unfortunately after prison he was a shadow of his former self..bit sad to see his last few fights as he turned into a one hit wonder when he could land anything..the link below shows him on the punchbag when he was younger with kevin rooney and shows what awesome combos he use to throw with power and speed which usually ended up with the other guy flat on his back

he would of ripped Lewis apart in the late 80s Ali in his prime would have made him look a total hick, if you think Tyson was fast it really does show how young you are, Ali was different class & deffo the Best since the second world war. Like Tyson , Ali carried on too long & became a shadow of what he was in his prime.
Now Tyson against Marciano would have been a great contest & believe me Rocky would not have fallen over as easy as some of those guys whatever Tyson threw. He was the only Heavyweigh Champion to retire unbeaten & would have out brawled even Tyson. Over the last 15 years Tyson is the best I agree.

tyson was a boxer and would only fight sapp under queensberry rulles and that is what shows you that tyson knows in a all out brawl he would get hammered and for that matter put him in the ring with Ondre oulofski and he would show tyson up , boxing only teeckes you one way of fighting where as mma shows you how to use every weapon that the body has

Tyson would have destroyed ali, most of the fights in those days were decided by the mafia not the fighters. ali-liston is proof of that.
People say tyson was a bad bloke, but you have to remember he was from the streets and did no worse than your average chav does day in day out. i think he was badly done to with a fake rape claim and made out to be a monster when he was nothing more than a fighter and a rogue.
Bob sapp can only fight for two minutes and hes fucked, hes been chinned loads of times, he does nothing more than box and the occasional arm lock.

Tyson had power and speed and was a great fighter, he had something special, where all the champs since would grind out wins. There is video where tyson hits a guy and sends him sliding almost all the width of the ring.

Tyson was primarily a brawler but theres no way you can say he couldnt box.
Any brawler put in against a good boxer will get knocked out. look at the range of different punches and jab that tyson had. later on he only tried to knock people out but in his early days he boxed til the opportunity came to knock them out.
