He used to be so great. I think he was the last great heavy weight. These heavy weights today are big sloppy whales. I used to love how tyson would bob and weave and dodge punches just to get inside and break the guys nose, or give'm a concussion with one punch. And yeah he can still sell out just about any arena. It just sucks that he went from a boxer and an entertainer to just an entertainer. I miss the good days of boxing.

Miscellaneous Quotes
"I really dig Hannibal. Hannibal had real guts. He rode elephants into Cartilage."
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian."
Mike Tyson may be one of the greatest comedians of the 20th century! When Tyson lost to Buster Douglas me and my father was watching it live on HBO at the time, we had a great time watching Tyson get his head kicked in.

When Cus D'Amato died so did Tyson's career. He was a great fighter but he badly needed guidance, when Cus died Tyson ended up with that asshole Don King and that was that. I still think the heavyweight fighters from the 70's were much better overall - Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Shavers, Quarry. Hell even Ron Lyle would have gave Tyson a run for his money!

I completely agree with you. Although I never really liked ali's style. he got the job done though. I liked tyson because he was so quick and intense and you could just tell that he really did have that beast mentality in the ring. And yeah, when cus d'amato died that was the end for tyson. he had the shittiest ring crew and no guidance whatsoever. Sad
