Maybe because of that knock down, he was hit pretty hard and on the button. It's crazy that he got up from that, survived, and won.

Tyson wasn't fighting Wladimir Klitschko level fighters when he was fighting frequently. When Tyson's opposition level increased above D level he had to fight 2-3 times, especially after he lost to Douglas, they brought his activity down a notch. Every new fighter fights a massive amount of times in one year. For example in a 12 month span, the first 12 months of his career, Floyd fought 11 times. Pacquiao fought 11 times in his first 12 months too, etc.
No fighter can actually sustain fighting top level guys every month. Fighters with 100 fights have the most bums in their resume. Joshua can't even fight the Whyte's and Breazeale's of the world (decent but not elite fighter) every month. That's too much. And fighters of yesteryear weren't doing that either. They were fighting guys like you and me, who just got off the couch to collect a little check and never had a chance in hell.Comment

We are in the two fight a year era for top guys. Can't oversaturate the market with your top guy. Its 90k+ fans for Joshua every fight now. Mfers gonna be planning their vacations around Joshua's fights lol.Comment

He took some hard punchers from a big HW. Two to three months to fully recover is smart. Then you have a 2+ month training camp for your next fight.Comment

When you are fighting better competition, you won't fight that many times a year.Comment
