    What's up with all these oversimplified anti Tyson threads the last few days? What did a bunch of you guys just hear about him? Yes, Tyson gets overrated (or at least he did before), but y go the exact other way??? any thread that calls all the fighters tyson beat as "cans" and "journeymen" can't really be taken seriously (his opp wasn't stellar but c'mon). and all were not scared (even if they all somehow were wouldn't that mean he was legit the baddest man). tyson gave us the best ko highlight footage over hw's ranging from c- to a couple of a- for many years, got beat by a great on that night douglas, went to jail, lost to a juiced out of his mind holyfield and on and on.....

  3. Tyson was great at raping women, avoiding Don King controlled fighters, and getting raped in prison

    I was in prison once! It was great, I was only allowed out of my cell once a day, this little room with a sun roof. But they quit letting me go there, after I stripped naked and started carving obscene words into my chest with a broken paper clip I hid between my teeth. The look on the guard's faces was priceless, it was like Christmas morning.

    Next RJJ lol, at least he had a build a bit similar to Mike, i'm failing to see a single Jones similarity.

    Mike Tyson had peak a boo bob and weaving head movement, side step and forward and backward footwork, great balance, throws fast and powerful combinations in precision, equal power in left and right fist.

    Things Lacy didn't have except for his body build, the way he looks and his left hook which is too wide and too slow where he cocks it.

    Nice try threadstarter. Now eat **** and die literally!! REAL TALK

    The only thing they had in common was build relative to their size. Any other comparisons are pointless.

    You might want to look at both mens fights. Tyson was 220lbs and still FASTER than 168lbs Jeff Lacy.

    The TS wasnt saying they were similiar fighters,as much as simply saying that they're similiar in the sense that both were thought to be unbeatable and were found out against quality opposition.
