    What Rooney says kinda fits what Jose Torres said in his book and what he said in his latest documentary. Sad really cause if he stayed with Rooney he could of easily become 60-0. That tyson was unstoppable

    That was my first thought too.

    I really wonder what Tyson's feelings would be if he watched something like this. He really was set and he ****ed up more than anybody else I can think of. It was all on a plate for him and he just ballsed it up. It just goes to show you how clever King is-a genius at manipulation, probably a psychopath.

    Its typical. Amazing fighters still do it today. There's an article about Mayweather being in money problems now with the IRS. Should be fun to watch Mayweather fight for money, he should get knocked out by his second or third fight. :DI think Tyson knew the Rooney mystique would always give him a pass, and he never felt he was the same fighter after getting out of prison. Tyson was always very aware of peoples perception of him, regardless of what he said in the media.
