Was Mike Tyson Really 0-5? Did He Really Ever Wing a Fight?

Ali lost 4 years off his prime for ducking the vietnam war and still dominated when he came back. Just more excuses from tyson d*ck riders

Ali didn't do 4 years in prison so try again buddy. Ali was a free man. He just couldn't box. Tyson was in a box. See the difference.

Prison is a daily war against your mind, body and soul. And if you've spent a day in a jail cell you would understand that.

That's 3 years not even being able to eat like a athlete let alone train like one.

But go ahead and tell me how 3 years in prison doesn't matter

No but it was 4 years OFF HIS PRIME. 4 prime years away from boxing.


Just more excuses from tyson diehards.

He only lost once in his prime. And everybody says he wasn't training including him.

Holyfield, Lewis all those fights were after doing prison time. He was supposed to lose to them.

Hopkins did time too. Mike was a big favourite vs Evander so check ur sources. He was even favoured in the rematch. Mike was in shape when he fought Holy, his weight was on point and he didn’t gas out, he fought hard. They even weighed the same in the rematch. He was heavier for Lewis sure and gave one solid round then took his beating like a man. Yeah Tyson was in prison but Evander and Lewis were also taking punches the whole time. Tyson may have been at his best in the late 80s but as far as experience and maturity his prime years should be the same as anyone’s, it was up to him to train hard. He definitely would have had more experience when he fought Evander and Lewis, so how does that count for nothing? I mean c’mon both these guys were older than him and taken way more punishment than Mike ever did. Been through more training camps. More championship fights. Lewis creamed Ruddock if I remember? I say it every chance I get. The day after Tyson beat Spinks my old man said a guy named Evander Holyfield will beat Mike Tyson. He’d only take bets at even odds when it finally happened because he didn’t want to ruin anyone’s night. I just come from a different place than u is all.

Atlas is a world class trainer, and he knew Tyson very well.

Hes Tyson's first real trainer, and Tyson repaid him by touching up his 12 year old niece. But you think Atlas is the ****.

Atlas's point is Tyson did not win fights.
Once it became a fight he folded.
Easy being a bully.

Did Tyson ever really overcome adversity in the ring?

EVERYTHING you stated is false and with a little research you could find this out, unfortunately like most of your kind you are practically illiterate and struggling just to keep the lice off your children

[calemanregreso]

tyson fought bigger guys all the time and made mistakes in training camp, thats just it, no need to disrespect the legend

[Robbie Barrett]

It's understandable why Atlas hates Tyson.

[O Prophet]

Says the guy who was never a pro fighter.
Atlas literally has hater and loser written across his face.

Tyson was in a low to medium security prison in Plainfield in .If you or I had committed **** we would have been thrown in the 100 + year old Indiana st prison in Michigan city where all the violent and hardcore prisoners go.He went were they send prisoners that are mostly non violent or most likely to be preyed on.The fact that it’s light security says it all.People need to quite acting like he did hard time with hardcore criminals.

I believe holyfield beats Tyson at anytime in there careers, but that still doesn't change the fact that Tyson spent 3 years in a prison and he was all smoke and mirrors upon returning to boxing.

Like I said in my prior post, Vegas was gonna make Tyson the favorite against anybody. He had no shot of beating any elite heavyweight post prison. And by elite I mean holyfield, and Lewis.

It's laughable that you dudes believe you can eat like sh$t for 3 years and come back the same. Prison changes you.

Being in jail, has nothing to do with the inmates you are around. It's easy to tell who has spent a day in jail and who hasn't. Because if you spent anytime in jail you would know your fight is a mental battle.

Only ******* are concerned about the other inmates. The struggle is staying strong mentally while your in a place that's designed to keep you weak.

This is why they make you sleep on steel. This is why they feed you like ****. To keep you weak in every aspect.

Have you ever been to jail before? You eat when you are told, you leave your cell when you are told.

You can't eat when you want, you can't eat what you want, you cant eat how you want

You can't train when you want, how you want, where you want


Training and diet are the 2 most essential things for a athlete. Jail doesn't give a f**k about neither
