    And add to the fact that its the headmovements of a 220lbs 5'10½ man.

    He was a ****ing supernatural beast.

    Too bad most idiots following/judging Tyson only remember his performances after prison.

    Post-Rooney Tyson was just not the same.

    Yep, his head movement is absolutely insane, especially for a HW. Jack Dempsey also had pretty good head movement.

    The blame falls on Tyson there in my opinion. He just lost the desire too quick and didn't care to train as he usually did. People tend to blame Don King/Robin Givens for getting rid of Rooney but if Tyson really wanted him to stay he would have stayed. Tyson just didn't care to train as he usually did anymore.

    Do any of you feel tysons defence looked better highlighted like this than it really was?
    I love his offensive style but I think a prime holmes or lennox would have been able to get trough that defensive if they didnt fall from his offense.

    Tyson under Kevin Rooney was a different fighter than the one under -insert random Don King trainer here-.

    It was like watching two different fighters in there, unfortunately.

    Does the uppercut by Gross at 0:14 land?

    Looks like it does, but if so, did Tyson move a fraction to deflect power, as seems have zero effect.

    But yes, not much like that in the Heavyweights anymore.

    I never liked him but you cannot deny his pre-prison greatness.
