I guess I can see why British fighters continue to be overprotected bums

He got lucky against Zab, and rode that all the way to the bank. Zab looked past him, and paid dearly.
        He is not a legend but there are those on here who would claim he was a bum.

        People use this word far too often and it is easy to say this behind the comfort of the computer.

          I don't think he was a bum. Just a "journeyman" type.

              Oh, excuse me, Tyson was 32, go ahead and bring up the Tyson wasnt in his prime. thats bull****, he punched just as hard at 32 than he did at 22, he just happened to fight a good boxer. Same thing happened when holyfield beat Tyson twice.

                    too risky. the homeless got nothing to lose and will rip you apart with their underrated speed.

                      actually he was nearly 36 and only won 1 more fight in his career but yeah he was pretty prime.
