        Tyson fought with all of his weight forward. That being said he couldnt move laterally trhe way that Ali did because his shoulders were always turned square and his front foot was flat on the ground with his back foot ussually up in a sprinters stance which doesnt allow for mocving like ALi.

          Was this thread first made up on this site or did you steal the idea from another website...because I've seen it on another boxing site.

                  Yeah, but didn't he kind of avoid the question?
                  Everyone knew the style wouldn't be an effective one, because of his size, but I think what everyone wanted to know was did he have the ability to do it?

                      Yo bobbyjoe you say tyson couldnt of danced because of the footwork he used , but I am asking could tyson use lateral movement footwork and get up on his toes , when I am talking about tyson dancing I an talking about him sticking and moving like chris byrd .
