Not one of mikes best performances. Not agressive and confident enough. But his technique was great. Could post rooney tyson pull off these moves against tillis? 1:14 This content is protected Yes obviously tyson of 89-91 could have still beaten that tillis, probably easier than he actually did in 85, because he would have been much more agressive. But this clip just highlights the erosion of skills. No way could tyson of the bruno or douglas fight pull that off, he would have just taken the shot and tried to respond, or maybe ducked it but definitely not repositioned his feet and countered like that
Pretty sure Tyson was recovering from an ear infection when he faced Tillis. Post Rooney he became more of a headhunter and far more aggressive so in my opinion that Tyson (89-91) was probably more dangerous if you stood and wanted to trade with him. Only real slicksters gave him trouble or someone on their A-game like Douglas was for that ONE night.
