Biggs didn’t have protective management guide his career.
He was way too young n green when he got the Tyson fight.
Had they moved him along at a slower pace, he could have become seasoned and been a real threat 88-90

Biggs had an outstanding amateur career but wasn't anything special as a pro.

Originally posted by uncle ben View PostYou know, some fighters can do well with out much amateur experience, while some fighters with stellar amateur careers go bust as pro's. For example, Billy Conn, Rocky Marciano and Pinklon Thomas. I don't think they had 10 amateur fights between the 3 of them. Two became ATG's and Thomas was a pretty good top tier heavyweight who did better than Biggs, IMO.

Yeah, prob into the nose candy by Tyson sorta like you in your bag of glue, but a top win for Tyson anyway.

--- No, Briggs faced the usual suspects before his title shot.
Initially Tyson had prob with Briggs huge length, speed and movement, but with smart pressure eventually reeled him in for the denouement.
