    head movement galore, one of the most overlooked parts of his game

    Mike is quite short for a HW, so dodging and weaving is probably one of the first things he learned and most important. most of these new HW fighters have great power however they can not get to the taller opponent becuase they dont bother learning footwork and body movement. one of the reason why Vitali is untouchable is becuase he know how to use his height to his advantage, and same goes for tyson in a way becuase his punches wouldnt be the same if he was 6.2 rather than 5.11 as his legs help to load his punches with some serious power, and vitali uses his combo to pick opponents as they go for body or head of vitali.

    Crazy, crazy guy, solid as a wall, quick as a wasp, sharp as a rapier, devastating as an express train at full speed.

    Only problem was, he was so effective he didn't know how to handle it when people weren't afraid, and could actually hit him back.

    remember mike owes alot of his success to his trainers aswell his body movement and weaving is amazing for a heavy weight and his old trainers who taught mike the old skool training tips made him a success

    Yep. Under Rooney, Tyson was nearly impossible to hit cleanly.

    Man, watching this reminds me how much I miss the true HW divison. I can only imagine what a prime Mike would do to the Klits. They were made for Mike. To bad we will never know.

    Effective upper body and head movement. Something SEVERLY lacking from the HW's now.

    I have said it before, and I'll say it again... there has never been a HW like a prime Mike Tyson... it was a shame that he was so crazy and easy to manipulate... With the right head he would have been the greatest of all time!
