Tyson's weight v McNeely

Tyson did look smaller And more ripped, so he probs had 12lbs of weights in his shorts @ the weigh-in, like Dempsey did VS Willard.


Foreman HoooooooooooooooooK!:smoke

 

Yes the thing in his shoe was called a steroid needle, courtesy of Chad Nicholls

 

cans of tuna in prison made him drop wight he looked tiny when he came out (pause)

 

Tyson came back but his famous 19'' neck never did. why was that?

 

Tyson didnt need steroids, the guy was an obvious physical phenom and still is. He looked awesome at 12 and had the genes to snap into shape without doing a whole lot of work. Even late in his career when his trainers couldnt get him to work more than 30 mins a few times a week he looked damn good. A few years ago he ballooned up to 300 pounds and now hes back down to damn near his fighting weight. Its not like these guys like Adamek and others who in their 20s are significantly lower than 200 and yet somehow find a way to put 40 and 50 pounds of solid muscle on in a short period of time.

 

220 wasn't as heavy as Tyson ever weighed in at.

 

i agree his shoulders looked smaller but was ripped as hell/ i think he was on roids no doubt/

the best condtion i ever seen tyson in was the 2nd ruddock fight.......can sumone post a pic of the 2nd tyson/ruddock weigh in???:good

 

tyson was on roids man/ he paid the nevada athletic commision 25 grand not to take a steroid test when he fought razor ruddock= fact

 

now find a tyson/ruddock 2 weigh in pic...........and tysons in better shape for that fight than any other fight in his career including tyson/holy 2..................can sumbody post a tyson/ruddock 2 weigh in pic???

 

he was 221 for berbick...tony tucker...and buster douglas:good

 

He probably cycled. I bet most fighter since the late 80's have.

 

Yeah, it was probably the steroids. As has been noted, he droppped some weight in prison, and his first fight back he was 220 pounds and noticeably more ripped than ever before or since.

Yes, of course Tyson was a unusual and outstanding physical specimen, a "genetic freak", but that doesn't mean steroids won't work on him too. It would be naive and irrational to think Tyson wouldn't take steroids.

Loads of athletes use steroids. Steroids have been rife in sports for decades.

I wouldn't be surprised if Cus D'amato believed in 'roids too. The guy was a genius after all.
