Roach copying Tyson's style?

[MoneyMay1]

It seems to me that's what's taking place. I don't know if there has been a thread like this before, but the only major differences I see are of course weight, and stance. Bobbing/weaving side to side, Peek-a-Boo, throwing wild bombs from his hips. All trademarks Cus installed in Mike. Is this a reincarnation?

I'd be nice if Roach would teach hw Brian Minto the peek o boo style; Minto's been training recently with Roach and has the body type, stamina, and motivation to adobt that type of style...

Son? I think you're talking to the wrong person. Name one fighter who fights more similarly to Tyson than Pacman. WWE sucks.

Thank you very much, Bogler. I love people who put people down when they make a fair point. Now, putting people down when they say DLH was the favorite against Floyd is acceptable.

I don't think he's copying, but he might be using Mike's style as a blueprint while at the same time playing to Pac's strengths of speed and foot work. Awhile back when Pac was fighting DLH, Mike came by the Wild Card Boxing Gym and gave Pac some pointers on how to fight bigger guys so maybe that's where your getting it from.

Mike Tyson copied Roberto Duran.

Well I don't know about the Mike Tyson stuff but I do know that Floyd is trying to be like Pac though. Only on tv, not in the ring... Floyd will never have the guts to be like Pac in the ring but he recently did an interview on ESPN where he was trying so hard to be like PAC. Wearing a similar hat and trying to be humble like Pac...how gay is that. No wonder some posters call him Gayweather.

Interesting. I was unaware of any relationship between Pac and Mike. I was basing this merely on observation. Thanks for the info to further legitimize my point!
