Pacquiao has reached Tyson's menacing reputation

nobody reaches tyson's reputation, ever IMO. mab and solis knew they would not win but tyson's opponents did not want to be in the same ring with that animal

 

What a load of rubbish. Geez man most of you young ESB fans are utterly deluded.

 

Mike Tyson put the fear of God into men. Thats real. You had 200lb men heavyweights quaking in there boots when they saw him in the other corner. There has been NO ONE in ALL of boxing other than possibly a young Jack Dempsey who had that aura.Mike looked the part and was the part. Pac is just a tiny little Fillipino.Who`s going to be scared of him? :huh

 

What are you talking about? Solis was fighting trying to win points, and trying to use the JMM blue print and was not skilled enough to be significant. MAB would slug it out when tried but decided it was better to do a half assed job and pick up the check at the end of the fight. Pacman is no Tyson.

 

i don't think afraid is the proper word. mab was clearly not willing to exchange against pac because he knows he may get caught but i really think afraid is too strong a word for that

 

Morrisey, stop this nonsense. You are just ridiculing yourself and make the Pac fans look stupid!

It's the title like this that make the non-Pac fans look at the Pac fans with disdain.

Please delete this thread.

 

scurlaruntings, would you not say that Sonny Liston had that effect on people before he fought Ali? I'm no expert on Sonny, but from what I've read, he had a similarly chilling aura.

 

that's enough to have an tysonesque aura? :-(

 

Totally agree. He slipped my radar. Liston was feared greatly for his menacing aura and then large physical size for a heavy. There were very few heavys though that had that menace.Actually a young George Foreman was also another one that struck the fear of God into men.I watched him on a 500lb heavy bag putting dents in it!!!!

 

:yep
