    About as intelligent as Hopkins (who has life experience and knows the game of boxing even though he can barely remember boxers names shouldn't be confused with someone you would take there word for).

    I think Tysons gameplan was pretty straightforward yet he still knows alot about boxing after studying it for a long time, the man knows his stuff, I guess the stuff he says outside of it is what confuses people.

    He can teach you alot inside the ring, just don't take his or Hopkins advice outside.. lol

        One thing I would like to know is if he is such a good student of the game, which I do not deny, why did he let his skills diminish in such a short period of time.

            So says the No Money Floyd fan.

            PBF has that same demon to a lesser degree. I thought it would take him at least 3 years for that black hole in his heart to suck up all his money but it in a little over a year.

            Boxing is that way. There are predators all about. Emotionally immaturity is just as easy to prey upon as mental immaturity. If you are mentally or emotionally wek you will loose everything.

              No. His intelligence is overrated by many. He often makes up or misuses 4 syllable words and randomly throws them into sentences. He's been hanging around Toback to much and is trying to talk like him.

                  Impregnable:

                  1.strong enough to resist or withstand attack; not to be taken by force, unconquerable: an impregnable fort.

                  2.not to be overcome or overthrown: an impregnable argument.
