    Tyson's favorite KO (+Larry Merchant)


    Tyson and Larry Merchant discuss their favorite knockouts of all time.

    Hopefully the rabid Tyson fans who rank Mike as the greatest of all time will listen to Tyson's own words about what true greatness is...

    This **** makes me feel real bad for Mike. He in no way looked crazy or psychotic in this interview. Wtf happened to him. Everything going for him and he had the potential to be one of the great HW champs in history. He was articulate, well mannered and just plain charismatic. What the hell happened to turn that into this...



    Tragic. Everyone knows already but that video I guess reminded me how far he fell.

      This is a sick man. He is manic-depressive. Up-and down. Poor guy really.

          4 years in prison, everyone close to him taking advantage of him, people stealing money, the media, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.

          I remember Tyson was very humble, shy, very kind. Even after knockin foo's out he'd be concerned and make sure they were ok, give them hugs afterwords, **** like that.

          but all the ****ed up **** that happened to tyson, he must have lost so much trust/love for mankind. Turned him into someone else. And who can blame him? Just a poor kid that was trained to be a pitbull his whole life and when he made it to the top there wasn't anyone in his corner that truly cared about him and helped him make the right decisions.

            Great post natas! I share the same opinions as you regarding Mike Tyson. He was indeed very humble and extremely likable when he was young. Everything seemed to go downhill after Cus died.
