    B-but the Klitschko brothers are better than Tyson!

    They have accomplished so much in boxing! They are the most dominant force in the Heavyweight division! They haven't been defeated in years! They are better and more exciting than Tyson ever wa-

    Yeah, who am I kidding. I couldn't type that with a straight face.:lol:

    This era is crying out for a tyson, it is so weak could see a young beast stepping up and ko people out left / right & centre.

    Then getting in the ring with Wlad and KO 1 him.

    It is, and yeah I seen Pt. II

    The only thing I dislike is that it is yet another in a very long line of Tyson videos that goes from DOUGLAS to PRISON. Where's that ****in in between of how he bounced back, war twice with Razor and have the Holy fight all Signed Up! 1990-91 is one of the most fascinating parts of his career!!! :twisted:

    There will be a next Mike Tyson.

    His name is Anthony Joshua.

    In 5 Years Hands of Iron's avatar will just be Joshua lifting the Olympic Gold and his vast knowledge of Tyson will vanish as he is now the Premier #1 Anthony Joshua expert.


    Calling it now

    I saw Mike's videos too. It was insane how he never complain once about anything.

    That is highly respectful. Like every other boxer (including LEWIS lol) always have an excuse.

    he just say it like it is. He is brutally honest too.

    A Prime Tyson in Today's Division might have seriously killed Chisora.

    Can you imagine Chisora slapping Tyson.

    :lol:

    I'd probably defer to iron champ, Caelum, sauhund II, lefthook31 in regards to Tyson knowledge. They've got an inside track on every little ****in' detail surrounding all of his fights.

    I can't criticize the guy. That was quality stuff.

    agreed, boxing does need someone like tyson to come along and blow the sport away, i watched the tyson v mitch green fight for the first time in years today and although green went 10 rounds, some of tysons hooks, body attacks, and head movement was absolutely brilliant to watch, on a different level to any heavyweight i've ever seen.

    also his relationship with rooney was brilliant the way they talked to each other between rounds. was also unbelievable to see that tyson had 19 fights in his first full year as a pro,

    In the lower weight classes there was Edwin Valero who was just an absolute physcho. Boxing isn't seen as a way out of poverty and people don't aspire to be boxers as much as they used to 20 years ago.

    Sad, but true.

    There's a need to have a new Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis or Riddick Bowe and a new Evander Holyfield or at least a new Larry Holmes. I've been watching a lot lately fights from Larry, WBC and WBA title fights, all these guys Pinklon Thomas, Tony Tubbs, Tim Witherspoon, James Bonecrusher Smith, Carl "The Truth" Williams, Frank Bruno, Mike Weaver, Michael Dokes, Gerry Coetzee, Michael Spinks, Greg Page, Trevor Berbick and in their primes would have given nightmares to today's HWTs. They were technically sound, they could take a hell of punch, they rumbled more than people think and didn't see, they were strong, big and powerful... Yes, there is a need, I hope it would have been Ibeabushi the way he fought Tua and Byrd, never believed in Peter, still have some hope in the newcomers from the East like Povetkin or Boystov or in British Haye or Fury. Sorry Klitschko fans, there is an urgent nedd for a change.

    when Tyson was in his fighting in his prime, he made the boxing world go round-n-round.



    Julio Cesar Chavez fights also added to the drama.
