    what i hate are people thinkin hes a unstoppable force because he dominated a average division for 3years

    also his fans are delusional which never helps
    Back in the day, we couldn't see anyone who could. But if you look closely at how his style slowly changed after Cus left, you could see his invincibility wear off. He started to rely too much on power and no longer his fundementals. Then he took on Buster Douglas. His team was so unprepared for this fight that you can't fault Tyson for everything that night. Not taking anything away from Douglas, of course, Douglas stuck with his plan and his fear of Tyson's power helped him stay on target for mot of the night.

          I wouldn't say he was a hero or inspiration for many people. If Ali made boxing a glorious sport, Tyson made boxing a fearful one.

            i dont hate tyson far from it, the fact is , he has never beat a A class heavyweight fighter in their prime so i cant say hes a A fighter

            his power leaves him with a **** against a few ATG's but he is still the most overhyped fighter of the last 30years, he excelled for a few years in a poor division

              Frank Bruno may not have been a champ but he was no slouch either. Neither was Ruddock or Tubbs. Sure their names does't have the prestige of Holmes or Norton but that's because they were under the shadow of Tyson.

                so a B-class fighter made his way to most of boxing experts ATG heavyweights list of 11-20? and some even put him at top 10. tsk tsk. i'm not a diehard tyson fan but i give credit where it's due.

                    Another thing - that was not ****. No decent woman in her right mind shows up at Tyson's room at 2AM. She was there to set him up for a huge pay day.

                      your immaturity in holding decent sensible arguments got the best of you. you're the one who's moaning and bitching from every tyson thread made up and can't stay away from it, you must be the one sucking him
