    Will we ever see a Mike Tyson like fighter ever again???


    "I was gonna rip his heart out. I'm the best ever. I'm the most brutal and vicious, the most ruthless champion there has ever been. No one can stop me. Lennox is a conqueror? No! He's no Alexander! I'm Alexander! I'm the best ever. I'm Sonny Liston. I'm Jack Dempsey. There's never been anyone like me. I'm from their cloth. There is no one who can match me. My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable, and I'm just ferocious. I want his heart!

    - Iron Mike Tyson

    Hate on me if you must...but Mike was the most feared man in the planet at his prime...there are but a handful of men who know what it feels like to be the absolute best at what they do...never mind that he is now the most physcotic ex athlete ever...but you cannot take away from the fact that he was the baddest man to ever step in that ring. You cannot take away that awesome power and speed and shear brutality and fear that he brought in to that ring. One can only wonder what could have been if Mike had better people around him...Mike was a legend and he deserves his props...

        I'm sure with enough time, someone similar will come along. Maybe not at heavyweight, but somewhere in the sport.

          It don't matter if it's a old mike, a new mike, a mike that don't **** people, a mike that **** people, a prime mike a faded mike.

          It don't matter

          He loses to Lennox.

          So by ***ing up his own career he cheated Lennox Lewis of an tremendous win.

          The better question is will we ever seen a fighter of Lennox Lewis's caliber again at HW?

          Hopefully Anthony Joshua will be the next Lennox. Lennox was the only reason I watched HW boxing, I miss the hell out of that guy.

          Agree 100%

            I normally don't do interviews with women unless I fornicate with them. So you shouldn't talk any more, unless you want to, you know....

              No boxer has ever been duplicated in the history of the sport. Every boxer is unique. Even boxers with the same style are not the same.

                Tyson hasn't won a legit fight since 1989.

                He is obviously insane and says some crazy and hilarious quotes, but as a fighter, he's probably the most overrated heavyweight of all time.

                If not for him being cannibalistically insane, a rapist, and an obvious psychopath we wouldn't even be talking about him because his boxing career was not that impressive when you add it all up.
