    i agree, that uppercut he hit tyson with was just brutal! lifted him off the ground and everything. just goes to show you how tough tyson was, because as soon as he found his footing he went right back to putting non-stop pressure on tucker. guy was just a complete beast plain and simple. i wonder if there ever will be another tyson type in the future?

    Yeah, he always looked like a big machine slowly running out of oil, and gradually siezing up to me....

    Negative.

    Tyson was all done by then. He looked horrible, squared up, walked straight in, winged his shots and had very little accurancy plus he hardly moved his head.

    But what do you expect, after years in the can absolutly nobody comes back even remotely what they were before. Fact not fiction.

    BTW, he looked bad in all the fights prior to Bruno or Holy..............lol, could a prime Mike from the 80's get backed up by the Hurrican or made looked silly by fatass Mathis....the writing was on the wall and in hindsight it should not have been a big surprise that he would loose to the dedicated no rust with a Tyson fight obsession Holyfield . Still nobody could go toe to toe with him even at that deterioted state of his career due to his god given once every fifty years come around talent, it needed a lot of clinching and headbutting to get him out of there.

    Where's the video of the aftermath with Bruno's then missus crying something that "Nobody loves him (Tyson); he has no friends...but everyone loves Frank. Boohoohoo!"

    makes me smile on the memory
