    Tyson should have been DQ'd against Botha.... Disgraceful ref was way too lenient with him.

    Both was schooling Tyson until he landed that big shot.

    Tyson backers always cry about Holyfield headbutting him and never say a word about Tyson trying to break Holyfield's arm as well.

    Tyson was deducted a couple of points, but was actually unfairly penalised during one situation too. Plus Botha did double punch him and i think the end of round two Botha tried to choke/push Tyson to which Tyson responded with an elbow

    Tyson fanboys are delusional, he was one of the dirtiest fighters of the modern era.

    I need to rewatch the fight again, but I remember Tyson fighting A LOT dirtier than Botha. Most of Bothas fouls were in response to the fouls Tyson was in the process of committing......

    Joint locks, elbows, low blows, biting, headbutts, punching off the break/end of rounds....Mike did it all.

    i just rewatched the fight, it wasn't as dirty as people try to make it out.

    Most of it was tit for tat, at ghe end of round 2 Tyson gets blamed for an elbow, but that was a response to a push by Botha after the bell.

    Mike was a mental midget, constantly looking for a way out every time things were harsh for him.
    I remember someone even predicted he would have pulled out with some foul against Holifield. It was a trainer, if i'm not wrong.

    Mike Tyson had a bully mentality. He had trouble handling adversity when someone would stand up to him actually. That is well documented

    Pretty sure Ruddock stood up to him and got numerous broken bones for his troubles...

    Holyfield fought like a disgrace from the opening bell and was doped up to the eyeballs against Tyson.
