No doubt he was one of a kind. Because of the time difference over here in the UK the fights were not normally on until about 4 in the morning (Vegas fights) so I would crawl in from the pub, stay up to watch his fight, normally about two minutes if you were lucky and then off to bed. Luckily in the days before pay per view over here so did not cost anything but certainly worth it. Still like watching the NFL and SB but the boxing is no way near as good as Tyson's era.

Astonishing hand speed, tremendous head movement and footwork all made it very difficult to hit him back, and, at the same time, generated devastating power. Before the fight started, his death stare was truly chilling. From the first bell, he's straight up and at 'em, in their face - relentless, merciless, utterly savage, until the job's done. The beatings suffered by Thomas, Biggs and Ruddock were especially brutal, even by Tyson's standards. He wasn't a boxer - he was a black hearted assassin !

Don King in his later years was his "weakness" King wanted him fighting as often as he did when he was younger (King Greed) but of course his trainers new he needed a little extra time between fights to rest and train for the next fighter but King wouldn't have it . Hence inner turmoil between King and Mikes' trainers , Mike lost his Long time (from the beginning) trainers and his "weakness" began !

What most people don't give Tyson credit for is his impeccable defensive skills moving forward. I've never seen anyone evade an attack while stepping into them quite like Mike. He had incredible ring intelligence and masterful timing In his attack though, his power really came from his legs, squatting down before generating tremendous force driving from his feet, legs, hips and shoulders. His fists were just the messenger. He often threw the least amount of punches but landed so many of the ones he did throw making him one of the most accurate hitters ever By the way, regardless what the judges said Tyson won that Roy Jones jr fight 😑

It's the advantage of his build, coordination, strength and athletic ability. He had the speed to get inside quickly, threw insanely fast combinations with short powerful arms and had KO power in both hands. If he couldn't do that......he was in trouble. At that point, he actually had to think his way through a fight and reach down deep to win. Many times he couldn't(or wouldn't even try to) find a way to win. That kept him from being great. But he was still a very unique heavyweight that was as exciting as any heavyweight in history. Couldn't wait to see a Tyson fight in the late 80s!

@oddity21 I don't get why people think that was true. There was two versions of Tyson. The fighter, before prison, and the one after. He went the distance against a very tough fighter in (34-0) Tony Tucker. Once Tyson figured out that the guy wasn't going to succumb to his aggressive style, Tyson adapted to out-boxing him for the decision. Tyson very much adapted his game plan for that fight, when he couldn't overpower Tucker.
@Gamevet3 жыл бұрын
@oddity21 *Watches fight for the 4th time.* That's not what happened in that fight. Tyson was pressing in the 1st round, got stunned by an uppercut, but stayed aggressive with Tucker holding onto Tyson, anytime he got hit. The second round led to Tyson working the body and then going to the head. He was getting the better of Tucker, but kept himself in check from leaving his chin open. About round 6 is when Tyson got on his bicycle and started working the jab to great affect. Tucker had landed a abysmal 22% of his jabs by the 4th round and by the 8th Tyson had landed 76% of his. Tyson was straight up working his jab and wearing Tucker down. Tyson stayed patient and hunkered down for the long haul. He's not one dimensional like Deontay Wilder.
@Gamevet3 жыл бұрын
@oddity21 I'm not hangin' on Tyson's nuts. The dude had footwork, a good defense and could rely on his jab. He just had to do more of that in his fight against Tucker. How do you not see that? Tyson out-jabbed the much taller Tucker in that fight. Yeah, after Rooney was gone and Tyson came out of prison, he very much became the fighter that you described, but that wasn't the case earlier in his career.

I was born in 1961. I remember the 'controversy' of Cassius Clay becoming Muhammad Ali. My dad, a boxing fan, born in 1921, who knew the guys from the Great Era, Joe Louis, Max Schmeling, Marcel Cerdan, Rocky Marciano, let me stay up to watch the fights between Frazier, Forman, Norton, Clay/Ali. The Rumble In The Jungle. The Thrilla In Manila. I did a bit of boxing myself. Some French boxing (Savate) too. But I was too lazy to excersise properly. Relying on my natural speed and very hard punch. I destroyed a boxing machine once at a local fairground. But that ain't enough to make it as a pro, or even as an amateur. Watching Mike Tyson in the eighties, I didn't really like him. Too much of an animal. No real boxer, I thought. Just a lion jumping at its prey. Kept clawing until the prey was conquered. Later, rewatching some of his bouts, I came to realise that Tyson was close to a genius. Maybe without realising it himself. The talent, the intelligence, the movement, the speed, the punch, the determination, the rage. He had the best parts of all the great boxers who came before him. And at the time, because of an unsimpathetic press, he wasn't seen for what he was. Misjudged, mis-interpreted, misunderstood, miscast and even outcast. Today, I see him for what he is and has always been. A Great Man and after Ali, the best boxer to ever walk this planet. And I like him. For what he was and for what he is today. Respect.

Mike was the best and I was very lucky to get the opportunity to grow up watching him.
@KP-yq8id3 жыл бұрын
Excellent chin? Are you kidding? Maybe in the late 1980s and early 1990s (a weak heavyweight period) he had successes against cherry picked fairly weak opponents (aging Holmes, Spinks, Birbeck) to add to his myth; no doubt. Then out of prison he came into the golden age of heavyweight bouts. He couldn’t hack it and resorted to biting and breaking arms. A weak mental fighter and that was his downfall. But enjoy all the big slugs against the weak opponents all you like…

People overlook the fact that we never got a "prime" version of Tyson. He was a kid, still learning a lot about the game, and very much a student of the sport when he was thrust into the title picture at 19-20 years old. Then as champion, was manipulated by a villainous and greedy woman, and another even more despicable man in Don King, who led to him firing his corner and believing himself invincible. At age 23, he goes to prison for 4.5 years, (somehow) ends up back with Don King, and has tomato cans lined up in front of him before facing Evander Holyfield. Tyson had no interest in taking fighting seriously after the age of 21, and would mostly headhunt in the fights instead of displaying his tactical combinations and body shots. Ali gave away prime years for being a coward about the draft, and was forgiven with an asterisk when he lost to Joe Frazier and Ken Norton (all three times, but was gifted two illegitimate wins). Tyson had far more obstacles in his situation, yet was laughed at for losing to Holyfield and declared a never-was. So when Tyson should have been giving us his "prime" from 23-30 or so, he was instead wasting his time, his talents, his money, and his freedom with bad people and prison. It was a case of perhaps the most wasted talent in sports history. And yet he STILL was as impressive as he was, and perhaps the most memorable heavyweight champ of all-time because of the way he fought. SIDE NOTE: He also wasn't a slugger who got tired after 4 rounds as some have claimed, as evidenced by the fact that fights with Ribalta, Ruddock, Green, and others, he was still as fast and powerful in round 10 as he was in round 1. The guy had the work ethic and fitness in his early days to go the whole way. It was always about his motivation, not his fitness.

@@wegihuaskale5421 i mean let's be real here lol you can start by fighters who went undefeated first lol....and then we can go back and be real with ourselves and just say Ali was the best of all time....u think just cause some1 hits hard they are the best? Every person in this video he fought was a nobody...come on now...maybe in his whole career he fought 2 or 3 people who were actually good...im not taking nothing away from Tyson he was a beast but deff not the greatest of all time

The Berdich knockout is probably the most iconic of Tyson’s career. Watching that man try to stand while stunned drives home how much power Tyson had.

They say Trevor Berbick was an evil man. It was said that Mike Tyson was doing God's work.

Tysons power vs Pinklon Thomas was insane! That had to be frightening fighting someone with that much velocity on there punches. Props to Thomas for taking so many kill shots and fighting back. In the end he was just overwhelmed with unbelievable hand speed and power!!!

I like what he did to Berbick for Ali. Tyson had every intention of killing that man if he didnt go down and stay down. He went after Holmes with the same fury. Tyson idolizes Ali and wanted to utterly destroy the men that basically turned Ali into what he is.

@@dalehammers4425 Never understood that.. They are all boxers.. What were Berbeck and Holmes supposed to do just allow Ali to beat them because he clearly shouldn't have been fighting by then.. That wasn't the fault of those two but the fault of the leaches who bled Ali dry.

It's because he stands square-on to the opponent with his arms up like a praying mantis. This makes both his arms ready for power strikes, and he is able to swing them back and forth like a pendulum of death. He pulls his left arm in and back and twists his right arm into the opponent, this makes his left hook wound up and ready to explode. He never really stands orthodox, his chest is always facing the opponent. And when close up to the opponent, he can still strike while the opponent only knows how to do full length jabs and hooks. He is basically a double dagger fighting a spear.
