    there was not point in that, he couldn't generate any power doing that, as it's just pointless for him to even try

      Of course tyson would still have power but not as much but still enough to hurt like **** , anyways power aside did prime tyson have the feet to dance as fast as chris byrd ? . Was chris byrd faster on his feet than prime larry holmes ? .

        i think chris byrd is faster than most, and he is one of the most slick heavyweights ever both with his body and his brain

              Byrd is lead-footed, he has quick upper-body reflexes but no foot speed

                Do you think that a prime Primo Carnera had the foot arches to dance faster than Larry Holmes? I mean, were his feet fleet footed enough to dance on his toes like Tyrell Biggs or Bonecrusher Smith?

                I think a prime "Quick" Tillis could certainly dance as fast on his toes as Marvis Frazier...

                    yes he is right in a way, but if you ever watch bryd fight you will see he can run quick too wen he's in trouble
