Step back in time...........Mike Tyson versus Andrew Golota

Thanks for the clip:good i enjoyed it, the was the last fight that Tyson looked really good in, he was bobbing-weaving throwing combinations, using good head movement, and had that hungry look, Golota looked kinda soft didn't have his usual muscle tone perhaps he didn't trian hard for the fightatsch he was not focused throwing wide wild punches, not throwing the right as much, not using his jab or following up, he's also a hypocrite, complaining about Tyson headbutting him, while in his past fight's he bit people, and smashed Riddick Bowe's nuts so hard he had future health problems, i can't blame people for being pissed off either they pay hard earned money to watch a 2 round fight and see somebody quit, THAT WAS BULL****..

 

Tyson got inside of Golota's head no way in hell was Andrew winning that fight, but he should have gone out on his shield..

 

What happened is Golota got hit and didn't want to get hit anymore so he quit. He would have eventually got knocked out.

 

its a shame he quit really, as has already mentioned if he had hung in there and taken tyson into the second half of the fight i think he would have had a chance. thought he was doing ok and tyson looked quite sharp!!!!
nice to see the batman pic back again john!!!!!

 

I was in the gym with Al Certo after this fight and i asked Al what happened and he said " Come on you know what happened, he flipped out again"...what a lot of people dont know is Andrew had bad stage fright and when he got tagged really good he would get panicky and freak out.sad but true

 

A couple of things, why aren't people mentioning that Golota claimed to have suffered a fractured cheek bone (that i think was verified)? Also, Tyson did look good (albeit in 2 rounds but better than he had looked in a while and after. It may not have made a difference but at least this version of Tyson would've given Lewis early trouble if not more). Anyway, I respect Andrew for quitting assuming the broken cheek bone is true. He would be facing severe and permanent damage to fight on just to not be a "quitter." Guys with less balls would've "bravely" fought on because they were afraid to quit. It takes balls sometimes to not give a f...ck what people think.

 

Tyson always beats Golota no matter time or place. Tyson is everything Golota fears. This fight was nothing more than pitting a FIGHTER against a 50/50 fighter. Mike looked good in this fight and did his thing, past prime or not, he still interests us with every move he makes.

 

I believe the medical report said he had a fractured vertebrae in his kneck. If this was true then it was the right decision not to fight on. Tyson could have ended his career on that night if he had those injuries.

I was very dissapointed. He fought Bowe with a broken jaw in their second fight. I didn't expect to ever see him quit. But he is so erratic that anything could happen with him in the ring.

 

I'm pretty certain that Golota had a fractured neck vertabrae. I don't remember anything about his cheek bone though.

 

Geez watching that interview was tough. He really suffered stage fright in a big way. He was stuttering really really badly.

 

hmm golota is stupid
