    Really?

    So a jab is the same as a big left hook?

    To me, Tyson's 3-4 hit combos, were better than say someone like Meldrick Taylor landing 10 flurry punches.

      I wonder if u asked Tyson in his career what were his toughest fights and how did he feel in them what he would say? Before the Buster defeat im talking about, and not the defeats to Holyfield and Lennox.
      He nver seemed tired to me in any of the fights as if they were easy. I suppose it was his poker face, but inside i bet he was really tired, and even hurting.

        He said that out of all the punchers, Holyfield was the hardest out of them all because he kept punching and punching and punching.

        Of course it's going to be different to Tyson anyway because he wasn't the same fighter, so he couldn't deal with a person like Holyfield anymore, but Foreman did mention that Holyfield was problematic for the same reason.

        I am not sure on the compubox for Douglas, but Douglas seemed like he landed at a high percentage and with some bombs. That had to be painful, especially when you take that Tyson wasn't in mental or physical fighting shape.

            I thought Lennox would have hurt him more than Holyfield but i mean before he lost to Buster. People like Bonecrusher gave him a few rounds of pain i bet and yes Tony Tucker. But he didnnt really seem in too much trouble in those fights.
