The "Defeats" of Mike Tyson

Since that's all anyone on here looks at, let's really look at his losses. Buster Douglas- If you look at Tysons face going into this fight what do see?, someone that's very bored. After Tyson beat Spinks, he just became a head hunter. Just watch his fights against Frank Bruno and Carl Williams. No head movement, no intinsty, just looking to land one big punch. Then the Buster comes along. Now everyone says he was getting his butt handed to him the whole night...BS! One judge had Tyson up on his scorecard and another had the fight even. So it wasnt as one sided as some make it seem. In round 8, Tyson KO's Buster, but the ref only counts to 9. The count seemed VERY slow. Evander Holyfield- Tyson after sevring 3 and a half years in jail makes a comeback. He KO's Frank Bruno in 3 rounds to win back the WBC belt. Then KO's Bruce Seldon in 1 round to win back the WBA belt. That alone is a huge accomlisment after no training for close to four years in jail. People make it out like Holyfield sent Tyson to the floor every round or something. When it was really Tyson trying to come in on the inside and Holyfield just counter punching. Then the fight was stoped in the 11th round due to Tysons cut. So then comes the rematch, the highest selling PPV in history. The first two rounds where rather even with Holyfield having the edge. Then the infamous 3 round takes place. Tyson is really hitting Holyfield, having the best round of either fight. It even looked like Tyson could KO Holyfield. Then Holyfield throws a headbutt and busts Tysons head open. The ref says the headbutt was an acident. We all know what happens next. Lennox Lewis- This was Tysons first and only " really real" loss. At the press conference, Tyson actully wrestled with Lennox on the floor and bit Lennox on the leg. Lennox with cloths ripped and leg bitten ran up outta there. This fight was a bad style match up. Lennox being about half a foot taller and had a 13'' reach advantage. Tyson did anything but back down in this fight. He even won the first round. He came charging out of his conner in every round at Lennox. Lennox said himself that Tyson was WAY past his prime and believed he was in his. I strongly believe if this fight had taken place in Tysons prime it would have been a KO victory for Tyson. I mean, does anyone blame Joe Louis for losing to Rocky Marciano? Watch that fight and there's alot of simaliritys to Tyson vs. Lewis. Danny Willaims- Tyson was winning this fight. He hurt his knee in the 2nd but fought on to the fourth. Kevin Mcbride- This one really ticks me off. Tyson trainer told him he should quit, cause he was behind in the fight. Even though 2 judges had Tyson ahead! Well there you have it...the losses. Compare him to other greats like Joe Louis, Jack Dempsey, Sonny Liston, Jack Johnson, he deserves to be mentioned with those guys. There records are similar, Tyson has does many great things. I think the biggest was winning back the WBC and WBA belts after 3 and ahalf years with out training. I dont think some understand how devastating that can be to a Boxers career. But some chose only to look at the above losses.....
