    Well....the video I had....it wasn't so much him being Ali-like in his footwork. It was really about his ring generalship. He's definitely boxing like Floyd Mayweather, or Ray Leonard, on the tape. Yeah, he does some "shoeshinin'" & some shufflin'.....but it's really about his true boxing skills.

    I have seen footage of him moving around & jabbing like Ali (like ? try better than !)....but it didn't impress me like him showing his ring mastery did.


    I'm gonna tell you something right here....Based on what I've seen, Mike Tyson had the fastest & most fleet feet of any boxer in history. He just chose to be a slugger-type because the heavyweight divison already had too many Ali-wannabes at the time. He knew a KO artist was needed in order to get folks psyched once again.

          Simple answer really, because guys like Jabs are quite dumb enough to make ****** comments like the one he posted a while ago. He's a kid anyway so it doesnt matter.

          Tyson was all power, that's just it.

            Because I have resources that you don't, I saw what was possible.

            Mike could dance around the world... before those two cement-footers you mentioned could their goddamn blocks.
