          When it's all said and done, Tyson came out the best out of all of them. Good ****.

                That is the life for 99% of former boxing contenders. You know, guys who boxed at an elite level but just never won a title ( $$$$$$$$$ ). Boxing is a cruel sport. Even tyson almost went broke a few times.

                  Peter Mckenly or whatever that guys name is sure seemed like it. After he lost to Tyson he said his life went downhill becoming a crackhead than mugging people for little cash and stealing from a freaking walgreens. He even stole m and ms...

                    I think most cases, including Tysons, guys can't handle the fame, Tyson opponents similar to Ali's earn lifetime fame just for being on his resume.

                    And in the case of guys like Mcneeley, he probably went from doing ok to being super rich and famous over night, having women and being around the wrong types of people,

                    he wasn't used to it and to be honest probably never deserved the fame but that's what comes with fighting a Legend
