[Monzon99]

It never happened and we will never know but Bo Jackson certainly had the arsenal and athleticism and power to subdue peak Mike Tyson.

Without a doubt. Bo was a once in a lifetime freak type of athlete.

When he ran up the wall, I was like oh schit

Or when he broke the bat on his head

All of his athletic gifts and 99cents will get him a cheeseburger at McDonald’s.All the athletic skill in the world wouldnt save him from a prime Tyson.

No defense, no science, no foot work, no leverage, means no challenge. Athleticism only helps when you own these skills in your nervous system.

Best athlete of my generation, though I think he was probably a ped cheat.

Tyson would have trashed him though.

Reminds me a little of Jim Brown and Ali.

Or Wilt Chamberlin against Ali.

Or Tony Mandarich against Holyfield.

Still remember Lou Duva going on Johnny Carson late night and saying Mandarich would be world heavyweight champion. LOL
