    Tyson knocked people out because of his speed and boxing ability. If you watch the Holmes fight, Holmes had a difficult time hitting Tyson because of his head movement. Once Tyson stopped bobbing, weaving, and working his way inside, he was easy to hit and to knock out.

          Yes and no. An aggressive, pressure fighter can be predictable in the sense that you know he's coming forward, but unpredictable in the sense that you don't know when and what he's going to throw. Roberto Duran could brawl and box, but let's just look at Duran the pressure fighter. The opponent didn't know exactly when he's going to come forward and attack because he was shifty, good with feints, used a stutter step, etc...He mixed up his attack with different punches. If a pressure fighter has a variety of punches to choose from, then well, he's less predictable if the opponent doesn't know if it's the left hook to the body/jab/straight right/uppercut that is coming as opposed to knowing the right is coming.
