    i think tysons 'post peak' performances, in and out of the ring, have tarnished his memory for many.....when i was growing up, tyson was THE dominant heavyweight, the most famous boxer in the world, and one of the most recogniseable celebrities in the world....oh, and he could fight.....before buster douglas shattered mikeys fragile self belief, before his cloak of invincibility was cruelly ripped from his shoulders, the guy was human wrecking ball, tearing thru a still reasonable heavyweight division like a minature red army tank....the guys tyson beat on the way up and as champion were as good as the guys from many eras......

    Very good observation by someone there..

    Both Mike and Pinklon were both in the P4P standings in the 80's..

    Rare for heavyweights.........
