    obviously it wasent the one punch that ruined him it was an accumulation of punches during his career that did it and tyson has ****ed up fighters he broke golatas vertebrae in his back and fracured his cheek bone and caused the right side of his body to be paralysed with that although temporarily . He gave danny willams such a beating that willams said that the power of tysons punches affected his punch resistance in future fights and finished him as a fighter . He fractured ruddocks eye socket and broke his jaw . Ruddock has admitted since the tyson fight that the beating he took from tyson made him a shot fighter . Tyson also fractured brunos eye socker and nearly tore sammy scaffs nose of with a punch and had it puring blood like a fawcett . He also knocked several of mitch greens teeth out in the ring and with his monstrous right hand he landed on michael jack jonson which twisted his head right back and broke his jaw and knocked several of his teeth out . Not to mention the uppecut tyson landed on ferguson where he attempted to push his nose through his brain . I have never see any fight in any division of the modern era do as much damage to opponents as tyson has throughout his career and people say tysons power was overrated . Tysons power speaks for itself.
    amen to that. tyson had the power and IF he hit u cleanly enough then he would hurt you.

      Tyson has never permanantly injured a world class fighter. 'Bank ruined Michael Watson's career and his life with one punch.

      all the fighters tyson defended his title against in the eighties were worldclass tell me who holmes or lewis beat who was any better . You might say norton and holyfield but those guys were well past their prime . Norton and holyfield never beat any world class fighters since their defeats to lewis and holmes. Holmes said that tysons power was overrated but how come he mentioned that tyson was one fighter that he did not want to fight again in his return in the nineties . He probably still has nightmares about that crushing right hand that tyson floored him with in the 4 th round.

Liston after his first loss to ali was actually surprised by his power . He said "thats not the guy i was suppose to fight that guy could punch" . Foreman also said ali had deceptive power . Folley after being knocked out by ali said that ali was the greatest heavyweight ever . He said "people should stop comparing ali with louis . There is no comparison ali would of boxed louis silly . Louis wouldnt of being able to live with alis power and speed."
        catskills i havent seen you for a while!

        still making up punch power figures i see!

        foreman actualkly said that louis would beat ali.
