Take a look this clip . This is a rooney trained Tyson struggling with Oliver Mcall. Do you think Mcall was Tyson's kryptonite.

Youre an idiot. The video shows 2 different days of sparring. On one day tyson is struggling, the other day tyson is making MCcall cry every time he goes to the body.

So you reckon Tyson was struggling with Mccall?.
#1 Oliver had a body pad on, and he still got hurt. #2 Sparring is sparring, I've seen plenty of gym wars where the champ got hurt, or beat up and then comes the real fight years later and the challenger gets KTFO!
why is that?
I'm sure a lot of Tyson's sparring partners been able to hit him with combinations in sparring. It's not a big deal. If that's considered struggling then pretty much every boxer struggles in sparring everytime they get ready for an upcoming fight.
Saying Tyson is struggling because he gets hit in the face with a few punches is definitely reaching.
Do you not think tyson struggled with mccall in the video?.
This is what would happen to mr McCall if he had to face Tyson in the ring.

And that would just be before the fight started.

Did Mccall give Tyson trouble in sparring?.
Tyson said he struggled with Glen McCrory in sparring.
How did tyson struggle with glenn mccrory. He is ****, he never beat anybody.
All I saw there was McCall *****ing about pretty solid body shots. One of them was near the kidney but he turned.
Struggling? Mike would have decisioned McCall.
Fighters work on all kinds of stuff in sparring. They're not looking to "win," but to improve something or get work in. It's far less intense than a real fight. You often hear reports about how so-and-so knocked down or "beat up" a current champ. It doesn't mean much. Put those same two fighters in the ring when it's for keeps and see what happens.
That said, I still don't see what the OP means by "struggling." Tyson looked fine to me, and McCall didn't do anything special. The only thing of note that I saw was Oliver getting hurt by a couple of shots to the hip. Thanks for the vid, though. I always enjoy watching behind-the-scenes workout footage of guys like Tyson.
(BTW, McCall is still at it. He's got a fight lined up for Sept. 10 in Atlanta.)
Did you not see Mccall hitting Tyson with flush shots in the face?.
Sparring aint FIGHTING.
It's sparring, and in a real prize fight Mike destroys Oliver.
