    And it has been proven that it is harder to scream beyond a certain amount of pain. If somthing hurts bad it can course someone to scream, if somthing hurts very very much it can be almost impossible to scream due to the trauma.
    Tysons punches may have hurt guys but Foremans and Shavers punchers caused damage that took guys beyond simple pain.
    proven by who?

      It's funny you say that because, for whatever reason, I just finished watching parts of Tyson's fight with Bonecrusher Smith, and there it is on video...Smith pushing Tyson backwards in the clinch on quite a few occasions during the fight, and less so, even does so with that right hand at the very end of the fight which the commentators make mention of ("There was a right hand from Smith. That actually backed Tyson up.").

      So does that make Bonecrusher Smith a superhero or something like that, seeing as how he proved capable of doing what you deemed "impossible"?

      Or is your comment yet another example of the hore**** that is generally spewed from you Tyson fanatics?

      I'll take option two for $500, Alex.

      P.S. Not that I care to check them out right now, but I'd venture to guess that that is not the only time Tyson was backed up (in the clinches or otherwise) during his so-called prime.

There have been lots of heavyweights with the same speed and accuracy. Muhammad Ali, Chris Byrd, Floyd Patterson etc. But They were no knockout machines like Tyson because they didnt have the power. Tyson was one of the hardest hitters of all time. But people overrate it. I agree with that. But not as much as some say.
          no u didnt

                tyson punched more than hard . tp prove my point even a shot tyson lifted the 260 pound willams of the canvas with an uppercut thats a dam sight more impressive than foreman lifting the 210 pound frazier of the canvas . When tyson was trained by rooney and in sparring sessions and went all out on his sparring partners he sent them to hospital they literally had to be carried out of the ring in a stretcher . Tyson use to even rock 230 pound fighters with his jabs such as bruno . Tyson had enormous power why people think he wasent a massive puncher i will never know . he hit golata so hard with a right hand to the jaw that the shockwaves went right through his back and broke a vertebrae and severed a nerve if thats not power i dont know what is .

                  Everybody who doubts Tyson's power should watch the fifth round of the Both fight.

                  Mike Tyson seems to be the most underrated boxer ever.

                      For ****s sake... Mike is quite the opposite of that. And there are more people who overate him than there are who underate him.
