It was apparent that he had lost it at that point. I'm just glad he caught 3 KO's afterwards. He hit a point when he was no longer a good fighter, and just started trying to hurt people. He has no place in the sport, and I hope he never attempts another comeback.
    Ohh yeah, punching a guys brain out isnt considered hurting.

      And if getting thoroughly outboxed by a limited fighter for four and three-quarter rounds, before scoring a devastating KO with about your only clean punch of the fight, "was one of Mike's true highlights", then my god Tyson must've had a pretty crappy boxing career...Mike looked like complete **** (in comparision to other fights of his)) for fourteen of the nearly fifteen minutes fought in that fight.

      There comes Yoghurt again with his anti Tyson posts.
      Even if he KO'd the best fighters of today you still wouldn't give him credit, that shows you how biased you are against Mike Tyson.

      This is one of my favorite KO punches. Botha was feeling very confidant after he tried to toy with mike. The mother****er got his ass killed in the 4th. He tried to get up at 8 and he fell backwards to the ropes..almost ripping the ropes apart..classic.

      Ohh and you call that a lucky punch?? hah He was looking at Botha trying to set up his attack. Yeah, he always went for the one punch KO's later in his career, but hey, it pays off.

        Tyson avoided fights later on in his career with fighters he knew were too dangerous, David Tua's team for example, called him out on many ocassions.

              Come on, lucky punch? Get real. And he was hardly getting his ass handed to him. If you're going to say that kind of crap at least say it about the McBride fight instead of this one.

              ...Says the theater working chearleader with the crush on Tyson.

                  Tyson scored a one punch KO over a guy who was ruined years earlier by Michael Moorer.
                  Yeeee-ha !

                    Ah, that is English and if you didn't know, moot means irrelevant, meaningless, etc...Or as Webster's defines it; "having no practical significance".
