    Wonder if this was filmed in the UK or the Catskills. Looked rather dreary and overcast. First time I caught this was renting from Blockbuster Video on a sick day in the late 80's. "Mike Tyson's Greatest Hits" was out but this was the next best thing.

    Can't believe this and "Champions Forever" are available for free on Youtube.

    Tyson spent hours assessing the big fight collection held by Cus, Cayton and Jacobs.

    Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals!

    The King of Christmas as far as boxing goes would apparently be Jean-Pierre Coopman, who fought no less than five times on Dec. 25 in his career, going 3-2 on that date.

    I don’t have any of those bouts but here he is vs. Muhammad Ali.

    Enjoy.

    Mike Tyson for me is one of the most intelligent and interesting heavyweight s that ever laced up the gloves.

    A reminder that on this day in 1985, Rocky Balboa defeated Ivan Drago in Russia to end the Cold War and bring peace to all nations.
