    Sorry i didn't read it properly. There were rumours Page dropped him a couple of times. He hardly seemed surprised when he turned the trick in Tokyo.

    It just goes to show the mentality of Tyson and his team when he's troubled in sparring after they cut the session immediately, when dropped against Page he looked like he was about to break down in tears. Ali used to let people beat him up in sparring, the mentality of both men was massively different.

    Do you remember that clip of tyson out running and he throws something at the camera of a guy filming him ? . Sure that was the time of the turmoil in tyson s life, rooney leaving, king takin over, givens being a btch etc. When tyson was his most great but on the edge of the cliff.

    That can't be correct, I heard that the Tyson of 88 sparred with Godzilla and knocked it out without breaking a sweat.

    Tyson probably attempts to smuggle a gun into the ring on fight night.
