Thomas was great in this fight. He went toe to toe, and he wasn't grabbing Mike. The man fought like a champ.

[@gwmba1989]

Thomas was holding his own until Tyson decided to shift a couple of gears and end the fight. Tyson was probably the most explosive puncher the heavyweight division has and will ever see. This explosiveness combined with his terrific handspeed made virtually unbeatable, that is, of course, until his penchant for drugs, alcohol and bad women, ruined his boxing career.

The loss of his mentor was too soon & devastating for him. As “brutal” as Mike was he was vulnerable & misused without his guidance and most importantly love.

Jake Paul? He wouldn’t have lasted a minute with Tyson in his prime.

[@metalhead9727]

I used to love watching Mike fight. He fought on HBO before pay-per-view was a thing. It was so exciting to wait all day just for a 30 second fight. I really miss those days.

[@edbrown6985]

So do I.dad would have a cookout with all kinds of food and everything else.it would be an all day affair waiting for the fight.the announcer would say don't go to the bathroom or the refrigerator because you might miss the fight,and it would be a one round fight.iron Mike changed the whole sport of boxing.

Lived in Brooklyn when Mike was coming up. He was a hometown hero, everyone knew his story. He was such a student of the game. The most no-bullshit boxer, ever--- fearless, ferocious, utterly focused, and pure. Had Cus lived, Iron Mike would have been the undisputed Greatest and would have been undefeated---- 60-0? 70-0?

[@GeorgeLittle-ft2yx]

This man took punches that would kill most men, what a champion…….

[@johnpsmith19]

I think Frazier was his most brutal KO

[@robertarthur3711]

He nearly killed him, savage

[@Juankrazygringo]

Iron Mike Tyson is fixin to destroy Jake Paul this is no longer Tyson vs Paul this is fresh out of prison Iron Mike VS Jake Paul and if you’re any kind of a Tyson fan you know how lethal Iron Mike was his first bout after getting released from prison

[@ScottH22175]

If they actually fight, Tyson will kill him. I hope it's not just an exhibition....

[@jasonellis9777]

That was one of Mikes most vicious KO’s. Thomas had a good chin and tried but no one could take those consecutive punches coming like that. I don’t know how he stood up as long as he did.

[@robertarthur3711]

Prime Mike savage

[@freespeech4023]

I think Robin givens was tyson biggest ko

Iron mike is the best sleeping pill this world has ever seen

[@bwbw1341]

Can’t imagine being in a boxing match with a man who ever hit, it’s like the head of a sledge hammer slamming into you. Head, jaw, face, liver, kidneys, stomach..any where and every where, and you look at Tyson in front of you and he’s not stopping… as hard and strong as Mike Tyson was and is, how did any of the opponents he faced not end up dead on the canvas? Every solid punch was like being in a 75mph auto accident without airbags!

[@mike-tt7vu]

I think the beat down he gave marvis was one of his best

[@mackydog99]

Personally, I think Thomas was a better fighter and better prepared than Frazier.

[@mike-tt7vu]

@@mackydog99 sure, pinky was a better fighter than marvy....but we're talking about beatdowns. Mike even lifted him up so he could hit him more

[@mackydog99]

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@blake86303]

Did you see that Jake Paul?

[@fabriciobarroslima]

😂👏

[@Zerpersande]

A guy that can almost go 6 rounds with Mike deserves respect. Jake Paul, on the other hand? He better be able to dance around for at least that and hope Mike gets tired. To me that bout will be like an ant crawling up an elephant’s leg with rape on its mind.

[@trevorregay9283]

wow......I forgot about this fight.......Thomas might have been able to win this if he had been able to move more.......oh well, the rest is history as they say........

most brutal still to come. jp. lol

Thomas wasn't trained properly.

Mike Tyson was the fastest heavyweight ever even faster than Ali when he was in his prime .

this is a lie.

[@htechdance]

Agreed, Holmes, Spinks, Berbick, Ruddock all more brutal not to mention Carl Williams.

Stop taking those drugs bro, or are you just naturally brain dead?

Okay okay. You have intrigued me. What makes the problem infant so great that he can humiliate Iron Mike, even if he is pushing 60 years old?
