    I think it was covered in a book called Bad Intentions: The Mike Tyson Story by Peter Heller. But I will say that after he left Rooney the writing was on the wall that Bruno fight was a sign of things to come. I personally wished he had lost to Bruno instead of Mr Buster 'Burger King' Douglas

    ps: If changed my mind I think the end was near after Cus Damato and Jim Jacos died, thats when he really slacked in his training. As for his corner in the Buster Douglas fight they were just shocking," go and get him Mike" was their advice, while using a condom filled with water as an endswell,lol

              i didn't even mean that in a bad way, your too sensitive

              and dont go callin me an idiot when you believe mike tyson was weight drained against douglas

              most fighters gain more weight between fights, it's not always blowing up like ricky hatton or james toney tho

              if you actually believe that your the idiot

              tarver is about 200 pounds when not fighting
              jones is about 190
              i wouldn't be suprised if tyson went to 230 or some****

              doesn't mean ****, it's just soft muscle and fat
              we can use the he was weight drained excuse for everyone if that's the case, cuz just about every boxer "blows up"

              it's a differrent story when you actually work to get up to that weight and have to come down

                    A fighter is drained depending on how he loses weight, If he does it wrong then he will be drained or if he tries to make a weight that he has no business at then he will be drained, but if he does it correctly then he will should be alright. Starving yourself down etc is just asking for trouble

                    Says who, you? Do you know how many fighters have worked there way up and then come down with no ill effect? Hearns, Leonard and even Toney spring to mind.
                    Using figures from Boxrec:
                    Hearns: Fought Dewitt at MW then fought Andries at LHW then dropped down to fighting Roldan at MW. He also fought Uriah Grant at CW before dropping down to fight John Long at LHW.

                    Using fight night weights from HBO:
                    Jones: was 199 against Ruiz and went down to 185 against Tarver I. He was 180 against Tarver II and back up to 187 against Tarver III he later on would drop down to 170 to fight Trinidad so im assuming come fight night he was around 182.
                    If dropping weight hurt him so much, then why did he do it so much?

                      His on Facebook along with a lot of other famous people, Jackie said during the making of Wheels on Meals that he wanted to fight Benny afterwards for real, after filming Jackie said he was only kidding, lol. There was a rumour they were going to have one more fight and make it a trilogy of fights but it never came about.
