Too many people and fans remember Mike Tyson for his issues outside the ring and the frustrated fighter that resorted to dirty tactics against Evander Holyfield. They sometimes fail to remember the ruthless youngest ever heavyweight champion in history, he had it all fast hands, power in both his hands, great head movement, fast footwork, quality inside fighting, cut the ring well when stalking his victims, but most importantly his killer instinct, the ruthless aggresive finisher he was, a beast a savage. in my eyes he could have been the greatest ever if he had the correct mindset and never had all the distractions in his personal life, such as givens, don king, mike tysons downfall was clearly distractions.
why would anyone who knows ANYTHING about boxing even have to ask this question?? First ballot, of course.
As mentioned a million times before: Barry McGuigan is in the hall of fame. Let me repeat: Barry McGuigan is in the hall of fame. Their standards are unbelievably low.
