why mike tyson is the greatest of all time p4p

[Abe Attell]

He's also done a lot to harm boxing. He became more known for his terrible out of ring antics rather than his skills between the ropes. You haven't been a boxing fan for very long perhaps when you see and learn more of other fighters you'll have a less biased oppinion.

And I agree, Boxing is the best sport and is way better than football.

"Harm boxing", lol, I hear this a lot, but mainly from reporters spewing their b.s. all over the camera or on my newspaper...ever hear the saying "There is no such thing as bad publicity", though I do have some things that could counter that, but not what Tyson did...maybe the ****, but that is up to debate based on how it was presented in court vs other facts that weren't allowed to be heard...Tyson, love him or hate, didn't ruin the sport, why? because when Tyson fought, everybody watched; even when he came out of prison and wasn't the same fighter...he loses, people still watched...how many other boxers could draw such a viewing (both on T.V. and attendance in crowd)? maybe a few at the time, like Oscar, Holyfield, ????...the point is, Tyson kept boxing alive and the proof is right now: few people on the streets talk about boxing, and it is not because of Tyson; well, maybe a little, since he wasn't a good fighter anymore, due to age, time away/rust, and lack of training...the bottom line, when there is an exciting fighter, people will watch...like Cus D'amato said, "You need two things from a Fighter, Character, and Skill"

It is kind of like saying "Ty Cobb was killing baseball"
