    This is actually a video of Trinidad fight against Larry Barnes 39-1.
    But in the first round Barnes came out fighting like a little Tyson and he even had the build of Tyson and the black trunks and shoes like him also. Please enjoy Tito 7th defense of the IBF title.

    I remember Barnes this fight as well as lot of his other fights. He used to fight on Espn alot i remember him against Harold Brazier,Darryl Lattimore all good fights. He did fight exactly like Tyson but without the Punch. Last time i saw him he got another title shot against Yori Boy who also stopped him.

    :lol: Yey you picked that up huh? I remember being a young fan and and all the older fans tripping out on how much I liked boxing, now as the years are going by im turning into one of those old timers as far as watching those fights when they happened.. At least compare to lot of ESB guys.

    If your asking am I being serious with the thread title, the answer to that would be no. That's why I added the smiley face so no one would think I'm being serious.:good

    But you gotta admit Barnes did look like Tyson in the early going.

    Was Barnes the guy who put a face mask on in his corner.

    I remember thinking he was abit liek Tyson but in the end Tito beat him up.

    I was going to point that out. Barnes cornerman made this metal mask to use as enswell. Stupid though, enswell needs pressure on the swollen areas.
