    Oh ****, what the hell is he talking about? He says Tyson had trouble with Bonecrusher and Green, opposite is true, WTF is wrong with him? Tyson dominated boht, they both held on for dear life, anyone remember Bonecrusher's name being changed to Boneclutcher by writers for his excessive clinching in Tyson fight?

    He's big Teddy Atlas buddy, all that talk about mental stuff is from Atlas and coming out of his mouth.

    Bert Sugar has been the most overrated boxing analyst. Everything he says is based on what other people say.

    like when he said that Pac has a good chance against Oscar and that Margo will beat Cotto?

    Sugar has always been nothing more than a yellow journalist, and now he's going senile.

    Bert's got alzheimer's, Tyson was built for chopping down trees.

    Or how about the time he said Marquez vs Mayweather is a toss up? Or when he said Mosley has one of the best jabs in boxing?

    I was responding to 'Everything he says is based on what other people say.'. Obviously not everyone thinks that Mosley has a great jab :).

    Yea that makes sense. I don't know anyone who thinks Mosley has a great jab :lol: When I heard Bert Sugar say that his opinion became useless to me.

    Mosley had an effective jab when he used it instead of pawing with it in order to measure the overhand right, which we all know he relied on heavily towards the end of his career.


    Anyways, I like Bert. I don't always agree with him, but he has his opinions and at least makes sense. Inside fighters can always be interpreted as either a tall man's kryptonite built for chopping them down, or as a limited and struggling figure stuck on the outside who has to do all the work to effectively engage in a fight.

    Of course Tyson would be struggling vs. either brother, you don't have to be a genius analyst to figure that one out.
