jones out classed him not in the 100% flashyness fashion that the old jones could have but none the less. i agree the it probably was a bad stoppage but sheika couldn't do anything. he kept getting popped by jabs with no answer. check hooked a handful of times and he got hit by 90%+ of every jones lunging hook. sheika landed maybe 3 or 4 good shots that jones pretty much brushed off. id like to see jones hopkins 2. gratz to jones

i love both fighters. i miss the mayweather that fought ndou. that mayweather was exciting. his style in his final fights were ok but he went way to safe closing in on his "retirement" to preserve his record. the old more aggressive mayweather that was still elusive counter punching and stepping forward vs a prime leonard would haev been one of the greatest fights ever seen. i think leonard would take it though.

in a nut shell it was his size and speed, for someone as muscular as him he moved damn quick..his peek-a-boo style created by the late cuz is also unique, im pretty sure he approached his opponents full body on, instead of half body, which he compensated by great body movement in the torso.. tyson also trained to attack and move 3-4 times after each attack, oh and he trained his thighs extensively so he could close the distance quicker and pounce on his usually much taller opponent.. I'd have to check this but im pretty sure cus died quite early on in his career, i think rooney kept tyson in check, after he was sack then i believe was the fall of tyson (douglas) yeah he died before he won his first world title. watch the 2008 documentary "Tyson" even mike admitted that his downfall was before he even won the title. He even said that his discipline died with cus because cus was the only man he feared. he was really like a father to him and cus kept mike in check until his unfortunate end. best documentary made on tyson.

Mike Tyson and Joe Frazier were a bit similar in Style. but while Joe is a Left Hooker. Mike Tyson has a deadly Uppercut and a devastating right cross. his Left hook have KO power as well. I almost thought that Mike Tyson is the upgraded version of Joe Frazier yeh but mike wasnt an inside fighter. he was a mid ranged fighter. when he would throw out is combos he would clinch or his opponent would and they would reset. the only time he really would fight on the inside is if the opponent would just sit on the ropes or would turtle or they would constantly hold him during combination. i thought he was an inside fighter at first but watching all his tapes he shows up to be more of a mid ranged fighter by choice and inside fighter when he needs to.

it was his aggressive technical style that allowed him to be so dominant in the ring. When he did what cus taught him he became champion. when cus died so did tysons dedication and discipline. cus was the bull whip behind tyson and when he left so did his structure. tysons natural talent, hard work and training pre championship days was an unstoppable freak of nature. a heavyweight that could punch like a weight class beyond the heavyweight division and could move like a lightweight fighter was unheard of and still is nowadays. show me another heavyweight that could throw a 5 punch combination in 1 second where every punch could knock you out cold for a week. Tyson was the perfect package. no one can match his speed, power, explosiveness and technique. he was elusive and sharp. speed is power and tyson had that. he also had power so good luck doing the math. what made tyson technical was his reflexes and head movement. no one can mimic that and have all the tools that he did. his counter punches setup his devastating knockouts especially when he would slip the jab and counter with the highlight reel knockout combo. we can only hope that another fighter even half was what mike tyson was will box and dominate like he did.

the hitman shatters dreams may 2nd hatton shatters his own skull when he got check hooked by mayweather and decided he wanted to head butt the corner. he wont be able to keep up with pacquiao no matter how hard mayweather sr tries to add to hattons style. i like hatton but he's gonna lose.

honestly who cares what promoters and expersts say these days. in one of the ring magazines that came out before pacquiao made dlh say uncle something like 95% of the writers put their money on dlh. 1 or 2 writers went with pacquiao. now that pacquiao destroyed dlh they all changed their minds. all i know is that pacquiao is going to take a 6th weight class title and then move on to a p4p showdown.

sorry hatton your gonna get stopped within 6 maybe if your pray hard enough you can get to 9 but just because you got a worth while trainer doesnt mean it changed your years of bad habbits. pacquio is going to run circles around you and punish you. be as strong as you want but your speed wont match up. pacquiao wont sit on the ropes no matter how hard you try. goodnight hatton mayweather better get back in shape asap for the p4p showdown.
