Tyson is #1 in one thing and one thing only: #1 at being overrated in fantasy h2h matchups, usually by highschool kids with black & white Tyson avatars.

James Tillis ?
Mitch Green ? Tony Tucker ? Bonecrusher ? Did Tyson have an off night,seeing as he couldn't get these legends out of there ? James Tillis was KO'd by the likes of Bruno and Gary Mason,Witherspoon and Morrison had him out of there in the first 3 minutes,and he lost a decision to a 100 year old Joe Bugner.Yet Tyson had to go the distance even though he hit him with everything. Mitch Green employed Wlad like tactics,hit and lean,hit and lean. Bonecrusher ate Tysons punches all night,yet still managed to make the final bell,and had nailed Tyson at the final bell. Tony Tucker was another using Wlad tactics,jab straight right lean. The notoriously gunshy Wlad would never have given Tyson an opening,he'd have kept him at the end of the jab,and smothered him every time he tried to close the distance. Tyson made his name beating bums and old men,luckily for him he peaked during a very weak period in the division.Had Tyson arrived on the scene a few years later,he'd have been in big trouble,the likes of Bowe would have made him there bitch. |

Do you really think holmes would have gone in there with tyson unfit and untrained? Like i said he stated he trained hard for it and fought a 15 round exebition in preperation for it. He was there to win, it could be looked at as the passing of the torch, and he ripped it away in style. I mean if you cant manage to take the torch from a 37-38 year old out of shape semi retierd guy, it wouldnt look good on you..... |

Tyson was boxing. To this day he is the most influential boxer next to Ali. Waldo is a glass jawed fraud who gets put down by Steve Pannell. Steve Pannell. |

knockout artist, as always your post is a complete joke.
You're telling it how it is are you? You haven't a clue what you're talking about. Holmes against Holyfield was older, slower and weighed MORE than he did against Tyson. For Tyson he trained hader than he ever did before. He was popping off his jab and moving as effectively has he had always done. He was not fat or unfit. Holmes wasn't the problem , Tyson being unbeatable was the problem. There are full time trolls on this forum that are better posters than you. |
