    Tyson had the best of Everything that money could buy.

    There was a lot of money behind him. As a kid, Mike Tyson was a full time job for A team of people. A race to the top to have the youngest HW champ.

    There is no evidence of course, other than all sports were awash with PEDs at elite level during the decades where there was no testing.

    That training routine was a prank by a poster on this very forum lol. It became so widespread fitness YouTubers make videos about it.

    Yeah, it was clearly not completely on the level. But going by Holy's words he worked very hard. If you're training harder than Evander you're really training.
