    Then why didn't height and reach advantage stop Tyson sooner??? Tyson fought many capable fighters before his eventual loss to Douglas. (Let's not forget that the majority of the fighters that Tyson fought had a height and reach advantage). He beat them all because he was preparing properly. Obviously, Tyson would have lost eventually but he lost against Douglas because he neglected his preparation, and that neglect was aided by the fact that he no longer had Kevin Rooney as his trainer. Dino, i've only recently read a few of your posts and you seem to talk S*ite in them.

        This was training for the Buster Douglas fight.

        It is old.

        It was a sign of things to come.

            Rooney = keeping his skill honed...we are talking about him making sure Mike moves his head, which if you can't figure out, prevents you from being hit

            It not a miracle, its called teaching, and management of Mike's skills.

            It doesn't take a genius to notice that when Tyson left Rooney he got hit more than ever, ex: BRUNO FIGHT, and of course, DOUGLAS

                I think Rooney was the only trainer Mike ever really listened to.
                After Cus, Rooney knew Tyson better than anyone.
