Mike Tyson is probably one of the most captivating human beings of today's modern Era. Cus D'Amato raised a champion. He made Mike utilize every strategy with his lack of length and height through countless repetition of power shots in distance for his student to strike. His style was so beautifully perfect for the Era he came up in to take over the typical size dominant driven sport. (Bigger and taller typically dominated boxing) ;). I just wish Cus would have been there to mentor Mike through the bananas of what would become with Don King. I regard Mike Tyson as one of the greatest to ever lace them up and box. But if Cus had 2 more decades with Mike... Imagine!

I was lucky - my grandfather (born 1917), my dad (born 52), and I got to watch Mike Tyson's career. I remember dad & I watching his fights and recording them on VHS. Next day, packing up the VCR and watching them again with his dad. You could hear his punches if just listening to the fight on the radio. BANG - another fight done in minutes. One of the things we all loved, was every time Mike put someone down, he was so quick to run over and hope they were OK and not really hurt. Gentle giant - he dedicated so much time to helping little pigeons. Best HW fighter of all times IMHO and he even went on to solve mysteries with a pigeon!

18 fights in a year. You don't hear about many American fighters working that hard. That is a hell of a pace to maintain and is a good way to get hurt, but clearly, for Mike, it paid off. What saved him is his deceptive defensive style. It looks offensive, but it's really just an active defense. Always moving, striking only from well-practiced foot positions. You don't get that from fighting only twice a year I guess. You gotta put in your time on the canvas.

He never did anything else." That got my interest. Same feeling when I first heard about Bobby Fischer... "All he does is play chess. That's all he's every done and all he wants to do." That sparks the interest. Same went for hearing about Tiger Woods. All three rank at or near the top of their field in retrospect too. The specialists.
