      Tyson learned well. At his peak he was the baddest and meanest fighter.

      And they didn't call ali the louiville lip for nothing. Not only would ali kick your ass but he would talk **** from round 1 to the end of the fight.

          Tyson has to be the most misguided ******istcdumbest athelete of all time. He should have had a lawyer on retainer in his group at all times and a money manager writing the checks. It is an absolute travesty to see such a talented moron blow over 400 million dollars. Who gave him advice mc hammer????

            People love to equate the word dumb with Mike Tyson, however, am I the only who thinks as it relates to boxing, that he is a genius?

            Only person in boxing that still holds my interest whenever they speak, you'll get raw emotion on top of an already vast knowledge of the sport, and it's always interesting. He is boxing's Pac.

              His boxing/ring IQ always get's overshadowed by his power.

                Gotta love Mike! He does know his ****. I would like to see him and Roger Mayweather have a conversation about boxing.

                    Tyson had so much potential, but the people around him screwed him over

                    he'll always be a favorite of mine because he gave us some of the most entertaining fights EVER
