    It was that combination of speed AND power that was mind boggling. Just unreal. :shock:

    Speed in combinations and that Intensity


    Time: 2:47 and on really displays it

    Forward to " 3:32 " and watch the speed difference between him and his opponent just warming up

    Tyson was unreal

    If you weren't alive in those times it's hard to explain

    He was truly the "baddest man on the planet". No doubt

    At his brief, but brilliant best, head-to-head, there are very few other Heavyweight greats I'd favour to beat him. Maybe only four, being, Ali, Liston, Holmes & Louis

    I like those 4 you picked, but I see Tyson beating them. I pick Riddick Bowe as the man with the best chance to unseat a prime Tyson.

    Good fights. Interesting fights given this was post-Douglas. But I thought Tyson was a bully who if you are not afraid of him, stand up to him, punch him in the mouth, he will fold???

    1:32....Look at the Combination(s)...how often do you see something like that in the HW division from a 200+ pound Fighter?

    Here is the Gif of that combination. Quality is better in the actual H.L. video.
