    Mike should put out a Peekaboo Boxing training course. Show people the Cus D'Amato training methods and drills.

    Sell it via streaming service or on an app or something, I bet it would be a huge hit.

      I think Mike could be a good trainer or at least a good asset to a training team.

      No one has perfected that peek-a-boo style the way he did. I'd love to see someone bring that back & do it as good as Mike

        Where does Mike Tyson rank?

        Where would you put Mike Tyson in his prime with the all time greatest heavyweights?

        I know its taboo to put anyone above Ali and people get all butt hurt when someone ranks a fighter above Ali. Both fighters i their prime had speed, agility, resilience but Tyson had power. Ali had such unbelievable movement though, no one could touch him.

        AJ picks Tyson over Ali. I don't think either answer is wrong. I most definitely believe if holyfield and lewis fought a prime tyson they would have been knocked out.

        Who you got bewteen Tyson abd Ali and why?

          Young Tyson, around 1987, was as awesome as it gets. Nobody was ever invincible, but he’s at the top level with prime Ali.

            I don’t know if anyone remembers Zab vs spinks where he used the peek a boo during a couple exchanges during the fight but looked explosive doing so. I thought zabs speed and explosiveness would be perfect for that style (same as prime Berto and maybe Broner)

              Yes it would, I'd subscribe in a heartbeat! ....Come to think of it, Mayweather could do the same thing explaining the shoulder roll and how he ends up leading with that beautiful straight right (from the chin) that seems to always find its target from a mile away....both apps would be a hit fast....

                Twenty year old Tyson woulda been a problem for any fighter.. But to answer your question.. Tyson would wreck Ali.. But he would have a problem with Clay. Lol. Id like to see Tyson vs Marciano.. But I think the twenty year old Tyson takes that too!

                  Imagine Wilder learning that kinda style.. Shoulder roll followed by that straight right down the pipe! Game over!
