Why didn't Tyson use any head movement in the Buster Douglas fight?

    People need to educate themselves about fitness. Just because you crash diet and lose 30 pounds in 2 weeks for a match doesn't mean you have the fitness and stamina to fight which is why daily Cardio, road work is imp. When you don't have fitness and stamina you move less and you throw less punches as you are not conditioned

    Then that part of things is a weakness in his game and something to be factored in before the fight. It's certainly as important as say a guy's left hook. Pre fight preperations and one guy doesn't bother. What is going on in his life that he choose to spend his time doing what instead?

    That's serious lack of self discipline. And it also displays a weak corner and lack of a take charge guy as trainer. So there's 2 subtractions.

    but it is still a subtraction. Not a it doesn't count factor.

    No different than the inept corner work. He hired those guys. He wanted yes men in his inner circle. That's what he had. That's a subtraction in some matchups. And a sloppy corner is going to cause a loss eventually.

    Again you keep on repeating the same old stuff about the crash diet with no evidence to back it up, the ESPN article seems to think Tyson trained like a demon.
