Tyson vs Smith the Bone Crusher WBC Heavyweight Championship

[@PoliticusRex632]

I met Bonecrusher in a Dr. Office in Jacksonville, NC. I was the only person in the crowded waiting room that recognized him. Super nice guy.

Correct sir

[@davidalbright7335]

James "Bonecrusher" Smith is one of the first (if not the first) college educated boxers. He graduated from Fayetteville State University and worked part-time at the Ford dealership in the mid-eighties. He was a regular visitor to the radio station where I worked. The man is a gentle giant with crazy eyes and a handshake like the jaws of life. He is one of the few to finish a fight against Iron Mike.

[@GCBoxing]

Correct sir

[@TangleF50]

Hurray for Smith to have endured so many Tyson hits & 12 rounds, and not once knocked down ! ! !

[@GCBoxing]

Correct sir ☺️

Thats what i said

[@angeloiodice9304]

Smith was an excellent tough fighter. He held Tyson, but that is just good technique. He withstood prime time Tyson’s heat. That was a rarity at that stage in Tyson’s career where he was destroying everybody. Smith fought him well, but was too defensive to win. At some point, he should have stepped up his offense. Not many could last the whole fight with Tyson as Smith did. He had to fight a cautious fight. No choice.

The bone hugger is more like it

I would love to fight Tyson, I haven’t slept well in days it would be a good time for Tyson to put me to sleep 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@GCBoxing]

[@HoserB-ox8zj]

Way way too much holding. The ref sucks for not controlling holding.

[@GCBoxing]

Correct sir

[@alanchong7513]

For a massive promotion, this sure was a snoozefest. Way too much holding.

[@GCBoxing]

Correct sir

[@davidalbright7335]

The man's name is James Smith, not Steve.

[@GCBoxing]

Thank for correction sir

[@mikekosar6135]

This was Mike “Elbow’s” Tyson

[@GCBoxing]

Correct sir

[@FernandoJose-bv8vf]

os últimos 10segundos DO décimo SEGUNDO round foram UMA eternidade para TYSON o NOCAUTE quase aconteceu

[@GCBoxing]

True sir

[@sanD-xq8nb]

Yo vi esa Pelea en directo y fue la primera vez que un boxeador le duraba 12 rounds a Tyson. Pero durante casi toda la pelea Rompe Huesos Smith se dedicó a amarrar a Tyson y asi logró desesperarlo. En general fue una pelea aburrida, muy amarrada y trabada.

[@GCBoxing]

Correct sir

[@CarolHemphill-dp7yg]

Smith was one of many to clinch, hold the entire fight. He held so much, I thought he was Tyson's bi---!

[@GCBoxing]

True mam ♥️👌

[@Bilko-kd2sm]

He should be called “Bonehugger”

[@dreamoutloud8530]

The moment I realized Tyson was a fabricated boogieman and as soon as he faught a skilled top guy that wasn't intimidated he would lose.

[@GCBoxing]

Correct sir

[@mistertwister1816]

Boring Clincher Smith

[@GCBoxing]

Correct sir

[@waynewolverton636]

Smith became BONECLUTCHER SMITH After this Pathetic fight! He held Tyson as closely as he could the whole fight, as to Not give him room to Punch! He should have been DQ’d and Docked his Pay for this PATHETIC DISPLAY! What a BUM!!!

[@GCBoxing]

Truly ur correct sir ☺️
