    I watched a interview with Kevin Rooney he was saying that he would have had tyson step around hoylfield and give angles and punch in combos and jab a lot and he feels it would have set evander up to be koed

    Tyson wasn't that dangerous on the inside. It was on the WAY in that he did the most damage, by either slipping a jab, or feinting one of his own then throwing the big right hand ( left hook ) over the top.

    he was a mid range fighter but one thing that was lost post Rooney Tyson And Rooney used to always yell at Mike about this during the clinch tyson would just accept and not do anything

    Rooney used to tell Mike tyson punch out and Tyson would fire out of the clinch with combos after rooney he was just like a ref come break us
