What EXACTLY about TYSON that still attracts fans to him???

[why-o-why]

Even years after he is retired. Soon as he says something the boxing public and general public want to know wtf is going on in his life.

Has there ever been a more magnetic fighter???

[Danny Gunz]

Because he was a crazy dude. He bit off holyfield's ear, and went to jail for ****. That wild behaviour mixed with his knockouts in the beginning of his career make the media glued to him.

Anytime he speaks he usually says something outlandish.

[ForemanGrill]

Ali comes to mind. If he could still talk like he used to, I'd wager he'd be the same.

[Canelo Phresh]

he has a magnetic personality

this guy has completely changed....i never really liked him until the end....i changed my attitude for him after the etienne interview on showtime...thats when i realized he truly had lost his "iron"mike persona....you could see even after the first round tko he didnt want to fight anymore....then there was the look he gave kevin mcbride when he decided not to get up...his interviews after his last 2 fights were that of a fallen warrior.i hope hbo hires him as a analyst....why not? it would help ratings too.imagine him interviewing guys instead of kellerman

[LeeVanCleef]

'The Baddest Man on the Planet' tag is had the same attraction as 'The Greatest' tag on Ali.

Plus that cameo on the Hangover helped. And Oprah.

His boxing style draws casuals. His story is amazing.

but 99% of his fans don't know **** about boxing.
