From a 1-10 scale how good was tyson in the second holyfield fight

sorry bout that, i was thinking of the first fight.atsch

 

this is true but i'm thinking stamina also for consisent, educated pressure even throughout a round. the post prison tyson rarely fought for the whole 3 minutes. from both holyfield fights the lack of combinations and pressure i feel is mostly due to poor stamina. even against opponents that frustrated him in his prime (tillis, smith) he fought the whole round

 

exactly. i agree that he kept some of the physical traits and if he had a proper trainer, could have been at 80% of the old tyson. but i just never see him being the animal of old. though he was VASTLY improved in the 2nd holy fight:good

 

7 at most. He had some head movement, won the 1st round, and was winning the third. Even if Holyfield didn't use frequent headbutts I still feel he would still win against Tyson. I hope Mike lives his life to the fullest and in peace :hat

 

6-7 as an overall fighter.

 

Catching a few heads no way excuses Tyson biting Holyfields ear off!!! Holy was a dirty fighter but so was Tyson, it got rough and Tyson saw more of the same coming that he got in the first fight and "fouled out".

 

They act like Tyson bit him for no reason.[/quote]

I know that pisses me off too. :fire

 

Tyson unfortunately was on a decline in this fight yes holyfield did get his butts in but like gaz said biting someones ear of in the real world u could end up with doing five years for GBH with intent.

 

I went with "7", though Jorodz made a good argument with "6". Tyson just wasn't the same guy he was when he was younger at all.

 

He actually bit a piece of his ear. People overexaggerate that incident too much.

 

yes it may be overexaggerated but it still was not right.
