    Was it Tyson`s early round KO`s and the way he exploded to te top so young or his menacing charisma and headline making private life that made him a global superstar?

    Mainly his crowd pleasing and destructive style.

    Even somebody who knew nothing about boxing couldn't fail to comprehend it!
