Tyson`s offensive footwork was insane, which heavyweight had footwork that could compete with a prime Tyson`s footwork? Fouts Uploads PLAY ALL
Floyd Patterson is comparable by nature of their styles but it’s a tad devolved in comparison but that is of course due to the nature of the relation.
As far as heavyweight champs Charles, Louis, Jersey Joe and Patterson were exceptional. A lot of folks wrongly associate footwork with just speed and movement. Too me, having great footwork is not just about movement but also about always being in control of your balance. Lots of folks don't think of Louis when it comes to footwork but look at how he always had a strong base and was never off balance. It was because of his excellent footwork.
I couldn't believe how swift and efficient he was especially given he was a big man. I readily accept Tyson was half a step off but Douglas was on point with his footwork.
The man looked incredible. He was quick, agile, nimble and looked like Maradona on the pitch in 1986. I wonder what his astrological placement and star alignment were that night.
