    ...Perhaps. But then again plenty of tough guys suddenly pissed their pants when facing Tyson. Spinks to name just one.

    I wouldn't classify them as tough in the same sense. And it's a bit different regardless considering we haven't seen the last fight of Brewster's career with him being thrown 20+ million dollars.

    Fair enough, but when you're in the ring you're not concerned about the money - you already have that - you're thinking about the guy in the opposite corner.
    Fighters sometimes freeze on the big occasion.

    Being tough can get you only so far .....

    Brewster is no match for Tyson.

    Brewster's just a bit too much of a catcher for my liking against a prime Tyson. Both can bang but Mike is significantly better at evading.

    Except Ruddock had freakish recovering abilities and the Tyson that fought Ruddock didn't have head movement and couldn't even put punches together.

    I just did a demonstration speech at the college on Ruddock's Smash punch.
