It's not about being knocked out, it was about controling the figt from the outside. What was so effective about Evander ?? THE JAB! I never said it was a knockout punch but a controlling force in a fight. Ask the Klit brothers.
None of what you have mentioned. His lack of dicipline, self respect and respect to others finished him off as a fighter.
Going To Prison. A better choice is Don King. Tyson had he not signed with King would not have gonee to the Miss Black America Pagent and the truble he got in would not have happened. Tyson also would have beaten Holyfield for the Heavyweight tittle.
Once Cus Damato died.........Tyson was done.....had Damato lived, Tyson would have been beating ass for a lot longer.:bbb
Getting brutally KO'd. Losing Cus. Going to prison. His "people" were exploiting him. He had mental health issues - all these things, not one thing in particular.
