          Tyson is clearly struggling he is getting hit in the face with combinations.

            sparring is a whole different story. mikey may not have been 100 % concentrated or something or hung back a bit got hit just to get used to it.

              I didn't think Tyson had any trouble and I don't think either of them were going even close to 100%.

              Having said that, I do think McCall had the style/attributues to give Tyson difficulties, which is probably why he was his sparring partner on more than one occassion.

              McCall having a good jab, being pretty cagey and very very difficult to KO, as well as being a 12 round fighter, would probably mean Tyson having problems. But it would more likely be the kind of problems he had against Bonecrusher than against Douglas.

                McCall was one the beginning factors of the 8 foot heavyweights we have now.

                  wow he was invisible.

                  he'd be pretty invincible if he really was invisible.

                    Wow, great post, I'd never seen this before. Turning away from anyone in the ring is dumb, especially Tyson.
