I keep hearing every fighter saying "history", I'm making history this and that....it's kind of ridiculous. Even when they fighting for a WBA intercontinental trinket, they are making history. Everything is history. Canelo hyping up his fight as making history....nobody will give a crap about this 30 years from now.
Commentators saying how we rarely see the best versus the best, when nearly every month there are great matchups.
"prime Mike Tyson" Whenever a convo about heavyweights current or past is being discussed, some mouth breather who saw a few Tyson KO highlights, brings up his mythical prime.
" They're both digging deep" "It's down to whoever wants it the most" " This is real trench warfare" "This is our score card, not sure what the judges are making of it"
You had to be there to see what boxing was like when mike was in his prime, really. then you'd maybe get it.
Maybe, you're right , he is before my time. I get that there was allot of hype around him, and an aura of invincibility and excitement. But most of the people that talk about "prime Tyson " have not even watched 5 full fights of his, let alone been there to see his prime.
