While I see your point sonny's jab.......Many of tysons skills were gone by 1989......post michael spinx fight he looked like a different fighter vs frank bruno. Tyson had a certain head rythm he would do with his peek a boo, it consisted of 3 different rythms that he would do in the course of the fight switching every single time depending on how the opponent attacked. You knew it was coming, but you couldnt stop it because tysons had the rythm and timing down to perfection. He mixed his combos to the head and body like peanut butter and jelly mix back in 86-88, but he all but abandoned his combinations and his peekaboo head movement. in 1989, He became a stationary head hunter... he was no longer unpredictable Slick Mike.....

.His personel problems had caught up to him. Cus Died.....its ok he still has jimmy johnson and rooney. Jimmy johnson dies, its ok he still has rooney. King comes in after johnson dies convinces mike to part ways with cayton and rooney.......and now that rooneys gone mike's head is in a world of mess. The only true men who cared and loved him Cus, Jimmy, rooney.....they were gone. He did not know how to react.

in 1990 for tokyo tyson showed up with the softest body on a great fighter i have seen on a fighter since oscar stepped foot in the ring vs sturm. tyson barely trained, he spent the days catching pigeons with his hands for the japanese people and enjoying party life. He was on his way to disaster. Mike was still great in 1990, but everything that had made him supernatural unbeatable had long since left him.
