    Thats right, now I remember where I read it.

    At age 13, he was benching 200lbs for 10 reps if I remember correctly.

    Great thread mate,they seem to forget how Great Ali's chin was,in an era of some of the hardest hitting heavyweighs we have ever seen Ali was never TKOd and people are on here saying Tyson would knock out Ali.!!!! In Your Dreams Maybe,Ali finishes Mike off about round 8 I reckon.!!!!

    I was quoting a section from the book ********.

    Incredible strength for a 13 year old who had never lifted a weight before.

    lifting weights doesn't make you a good fighter. And these are just claims, not documented facts.

    I think he sounds good. 2:00 on he starts talking eloquent and there's some philosophical and psychological things he discusses than most people wouldn't even think about.

    Hell no Tyson sounds good bro, what the hell were you listening too. I LOVED Tyson interviews, because of all his honesty, and i do believe him when he says Ali beats him.

    Would have loved to known what Cus thought of Ali Vs Tyson

    Im surprised Rooney has never mentioned or spoke about what happened in the Holyfield/Tyson sparring session
