    I went to Mason/Biggs and was close enough to hear that at times Biggs did indeed make a strange noise when hit. More than grunt or groan you would regularly hear in fights.

    There is a video out there where Tyson says he wanted to kill or punish Berbick for beating Ali.

    I don’t think Tyson liked Lewis very much.

    Berbick took it pretty easy on Ali, all things considered.

    Mike Tyson was always gracious after the fight ... hugging guys etc

    Imagine chucking in Buster Mathis Jr's propensity for bending at the waist....?

    Mama have mercy.

    Of all the great horror films, somehow my two go-to films are the Fog and Phantasm..

    Tyson's camp used to yell, "Put some bass in it, baby," at Buster Mathis Jr. For having a high pitched voice.

    I'mma just file this under "Mike says wild ****" rather than "Mike specifically hates Tony Tubbs"

    Those are C L A S S I C S. 70's and 80's horror are still the best.

    My Top 3 are Halloween, The Fog and The Evil Dead. Watched Evil Dead as an 8 year old and it messed me up for a few months.

    Phantasm, The Exorcist, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Return of the Living Dead, Black Christmas, Friday The 13th, Elm Street...I could go on and on.

    Tyson was hardly Barry White, himself.

    I have seen all of those movies dozens, if not hundreds of times.

    Phantasm and the Fog are like a nice dark beer, and the Exorcist is like whiskey. good stuff, but not for every night.
