Tyson's opponents did not look scared. Bruno did and that is about it.

Watch the Tyson/Holyfield staredown before the 2nd fight, Tyson was the one that looked like he was going to **** in his trunks in that one.

It's all bull**** anyway, stare-downs are over-rated. Eubank refused to even look at Benn when he fought him and that seemed to freak Benn out worse. Foreman stared the **** out of Ali before their fight and what happened....there are many examples of fighters winning the staredown but losing the fight.

 

Tyson loved the story from Cus' about the Hero and the Coward...They both feel the same way but, it's what they do with it...Tyson used to want to take heads off when he was scared...

 

They stole that from Stallone, I remember watching Rocky 5 where there was a flashback to Rocky's younger days and Mickey talked about the hero and the coward. D'Amato was a fraud.

If he was in England he'd have been arrested too, there's something deeply suspicious about a man in his 60's filling his house with teenage boys if you ask me.

 

Rock 5, released 1990...Cus D' Amato 1908-1985....

From your 2nd paragragh, I'm guessing you see gay porn on ink-blot tests...

 

I'll tell 'em to your avatar....:yep

 

Ive got Tysons biography by Peter Heller, it does say that Tyson was hypnotised for most of his fights when with Rooney and Cus, ill put it up in a new thread (when i can be bothered to look for it in the book)

On a seperate note, have u ever noticed in the Douglas fight before the bell when Tyson rubs his gloves together hes actually politely smiling! what happened to the "caged animal waiting to be unleashed" you can tell somethings defo wrong there...

Staring someone out dont mean ****, look at the first Bruno fight, Bruno stares him out and Tyson looks away (probably because he knew he hadnt been training hard enough) He admitted this himself, after kocning Bruno down in the first round when he saw Bruno getting up he said to himself, oh **** this is gonna be a long night (or something like that)

 

0:31 seconds, you can see Tyson smiling politely (Wtf), i believe it was befoe the Douglas fight

 

In the Rematch, Bruno knew what was coming for him & he wasn't relishing that fact he was sharing a ring with Tyson, that's for sure.

This is Boxing, if one can gain an edge before a punch is even thrown, then you capitalize on that edge & try ot make the most of it!

Tyson may have intimidated opponents, but he beat by hitting them, often!

For the record, Alex Stewart is the one opponent who looked like he was having a stroll in the park on his way to the ring, but when it came to the Staredown, its like eveything dawned on him at that moment!

That is EXACTLY what I think will happen to Audley Harrison next month against Haye!

 

I remember this fight after the first round, Bruno looked very exhausted and scared.

 

It very unlike Mike to smile before a fight, maybe it was cz he had a good time last night :good

Obviously Douglas was here to cleanse Mike of the sins hed committed the previous night

 

Nah he didnt just have sex, he was gangbanging bitches. Tying them up and torturing them and ****

Unfortunately one day it caught up with him :dead

 

When I read the thread title, what immediately came to mind was ALEX STEWART. Stewart fought an absolute bloody hell war vs. Holyfield just 2 fights earlier.. But he looked like he had already pooped his pants coming into the ring vs. Tyson.. and then all he could do was run away. That fool was scared shitless.
