How does this one go? Tyson seemed pretty frisky early vs Williams but his punches didn’t have their previous devastating effect and he was impossible to miss at this stage. Butterbean is what he is, but he can bang. So what happens when the irresistible bean means the moveable object?
Williams was fringe world class, probably in the lower half of the worlds top 20 HWs, and Tyson had the better of the first 3 rounds, almost getting Danny out there. Butterbean could punch, but he was never close to a top 20 HW. I'd heavily favour even this shot version of Tyson.
Bean had a B- chin and Tyson still had power. If Tyson doesn't already knock Bean out, Bean trips after throwing a wild haymaker and Tyson rushes to land a shot, and ends the fight
Tyson tore a ligament in his knee vs Williams which was a big reason Williams was able to get himself back in the fight. Plus Williams was at a considerably higher level than Butterbean he was atleast British level and a fringe contender at one point. Barring a freak injury Tyson should finish off Butterbean within a few rounds.
Tyson would win in the first minute I think. If Butterbean can survive until he tears his ligament (assuming he tears his ligament) it might get interesting but I suspect Butterbean would already be dreaming by then.
I don’t put a lot of stock in the knee ligament thing — not exactly like Mike bounced back to contender form when he recovered from it. He was shot. I think there’s every chance Bean breaks through and lands something big early against Tyson and not sure Mike has the fortitude to bite down on the mouthpiece and go to war at this point.
He was shot but he did legitimately tear a ligament in his knee you can actually see the exact moment it happens in the fight. So to say that had no barring on the fight is a bit baffling to be quite honest tearing a ligament in your knee is an awful injury. The punishment Williams took in the first 2 rounds Butterbean would've been out of there already. He was a club fighter who never even remotely come close to beating a top 20 Heavyweight. Tyson even at that stage in his career would be levels above Butterbean who never even won a fight over 4 rounds. Here's Butterbean getting dismantled by a complete nobody with a 2-11 record in 2 rounds. This content is protected
I meant I don’t think it had any bearing on the outcome. Tyson was getting tagged and wasn’t interested in hanging around. As we saw next time when he didn’t have a ligament problem. I give Bean a chance to be competitive in a 4-round fight. He could punch and Mike was there to be hit.
So you don't think a torn knee ligament has no barring on a result ok. I'm done with this convo no offence but you just don't like Tyson let's be real you criticise him in every thread so waste of time.
When his knee got fixed, he fought again. What did you see different in him? He was shot at this point.
