Floyd Patterson vs Mike Tyson

[The_One77]

The very air that Mike Tyson breathes will KTFO Floyd Patterson on his ass in the first round, 1 nano second would probably be enough time.

Old time fighters are vastly overrated.

No argument here. Tyson would eat him up for breakfast. Regardless what people say about Floyd Patterson, i don't really like him. He's too soft and sensitive.

I never took a liking to his style or ring presentation. Whatever yo...

Don't tell me Patterson's on Fight Night 4 is he?

Patterson is my fav fighter off all time, you dont like his style? well Patterson was involved in 2 FOTY. He had the quickest hands of any heavyweight and his combos were amazing. But I would pick Tyson to KO him Floyd's chin was just to weak.

He fought almost crouched. No argument that he had fast hands, but he didn't have that killer intuition. Ya know, the type that Sugar Robinson had?

I used to favor Patterson. I read "King of the World" by David Remnick and it would get into how soft Patterson was. Floyd was always catergorized as a sensitive individual. When he lost to Liston he broke down. Patterson used to isolate himself away from people and sob. He would start crying from the pressures and all that other stuff that comes along with boxing. According to researchers that was a part of his character because he brought it over from his adolesence.

It's not that i hate the guy as a fighter. I just don't like soft and weak.

Maybe he cried because he felt he let down people.

What was Floyd's side to it and his exact words?

He fought in exactly the same peak a boo style that Tyson did, he did have a killer instinct just watch the second ingo fight or the Archie Moore fight. Patterson had mental health problems when he was younger he would hide in holes to stay away from people, i have his book victory over my self which is a great read. If you think the guy was so soft how come he was willing to pay for a third fight with Liston.

The book was primarily by research journalists. So they didn't directly go to Patterson, but Patterson's friends, family, trainers, aquaintences and a little from Floyd.

Vaugely, according to Patterson it was from the pressure and letting people down. Boxing business in general.

A tough business, boxing is.

To exhibit his toughness, so people wouldn't think he was weak or callow. I ain't sayin Patterson's a bum, i just think he was too soft.

Patterson was one of the nicest fighters at that time. It might be a toss up between Louis and Patterson maybe?

I'll watch the Archie Moore fight. Never seen it.

Well, Tyson and Patterson both had psychological instability. Tyson was a little bit more aggressive about his. And Patterson was withdrawn with his.

Patterson was well loved, especially by white people during that time. And Tyson was hated and feared by all.

I think Tyson took his frustration out in a physical form. Which attributes to his KO success.

Patterson? As soon as ALI got on the scene, he was a mere memory. Patterson was the guy before Liston. But when Liston got to him, and then ALI came along....that was a wrap for Patterson. Why do you think Patterson picked a fight with ALI. To try and get back in the mix. But not against ALI.
