Was Prime Mike Tyson Unbeatable?

Sean O’Grady once described the mindset of a fighter and how they deal with defeat:

“When you lose you’re never at your best. Because if you were at your best, how could you lose?”

Tyson fans seem to have this mindset for him.

 

This site has taught me that no fighter no matter how impressive or great of legendary status is not unbeatable. He is a man, who bleeds, feels, thinks and is prone to making mistakes like the rest of us, that includes many of my favorites too. What tomorrow brings we do not know. In a boxing match many things happen, an accidental headbutt could create a bad cut, a fighter might get an upset stomach, get hit in the stomach and soil his pants. there are a ton of scenarios that could happen. So no one is infallible. Remember excuses are like peoples behinds, everyone has one.

 

Also true:

Losers make excuses.

Winners adjust.

 

He lost in his prime

 

I posted this in another thread and it applies here.
Any version of Tyson was screwed up in the head. He's a lunatic and totally unpredictable. He might eat an ear. He might chew on a nose. He might lay on the canvas and take a nap. I wouldn't bet anything on him. STAY AWAY!
