    - -Tubby Lar holding back vs Ali. Clearly he coulda KOed Ali in the first rd that allowed him to go unneeded rds. I'd have banished everyone associated with this idiocy save Lar.

      Didn't older Foreman used to look to the ref in his 90s fights to have them stopped? And I remember a Roy Jones fight that was finally stopped in the 11th with the commentators even yelling for the fight to be stopped. I think the opponent was Richard Hall. Wasn't Jones even looking for that to be stopped?

        The class and honor Mike Tyson showed in the ring after losing to Lennox Lewis, even wiping a drip of blood of the face of Lennox. Also Tyson at the press conference after he lost to Holyfield the first time, he said something like "I just want to touch you, you are the man..."

        Also in that Tyson film by James Toback, when Tyson starting talking about how much Cus meant to him and his life and career and then he started crying about it. Can't beat these moments. So many class moments in boxing history.

          Did Tyson manage to admit to the **** he was convicted for in that film? I kind of doubt it.

            Pac did the same against Margarito, the ref still didn't stop it though.

            Tyson always denied raping that woman. He joked a while back that he might as well should have ****d her, for all the trouble she put him through lmao. He said that a while back, if he said that now people would try to cancel him. But Iron Mike is untouchable.

            Tyson joined the Inner Circle, I think he's gonna **** MJF though.

              I think maybe Tyson thought he was making love to that girl; I think that girl thought she got ****d. Could it be they were both telling the truth?

              I wouldn't normally offer such an out for any man, but with Tyson; I'm not saying it's what happened, but I am saying, with Tyson it's not impossible.

                Good point. Years later I remember some news story coming out about a woman who had consensual sex with Tyson who said she ended up with v aginal tears because of his size and possible roughness at the time in bed. This could be what happened with Ms. Washington.
