    Why was Tyson so beloved by fans, and not Floyd?

    They were both black, so race should'nt play an issue here. Both have had the #1pfp title. Neither one of them had much class. So why is it that Tyson was so much more embraced by fans, while Floyd is shunned upon?

        Exactly...

        The bad behavior they exhibited was also a little different.

        Mike behaved like a ****in gangster.

        Floyd behaves like 4 year old girl.

          Cus Tyson knocked everyone out, was funny, and just didn' give a ****...
          Plus he is also mentally unstable and that makes for good tv.
          Tyson knew how to talk **** while FLoyd can only try.. Plus he wasn't as arrogant and for the most part of his career always humble.

              That broken back interview is still one of the funniest interviews of all time...

              "I BROKE MY BACK"

              what do you mean, how is it broken?

              "SPINAL!"

                Picture Floyd trying to say that quote about Tyson being Alexander and eating children, it would sound sooooooo out of place lol.

                  Tyson's attitude and style were REAL, while with Floyd, its all a front/act. People can see right through Floyd. Tyson came in the ring with the intentions of KILLING his opponent. Floyd talks about putting his opponent on his ass, but then fights as if he doesnt wanna break a nail. I guess people just loved the rawness of Tyson.
