    Seriously, why? This man is mental midg7t that quit at the first sign of things not going his way. He also has beat women. And that isn't even going into the fact that he's a ******.

    Floyd says what he says to get attention.

    Mike spent the better part of his life acting like an animal. Who is he to talk about anyone being scared when he quit in multiple fights?

    Ray Robinson is the GOAT anyways. :deal

    All that nonsense you posted still doesn't change the fact that Tyson knows what he's talking about when it comes to boxing.

    Who cares that he called himself better than Ali? Besides of course a ****** and a bunch of casual fans who know nothing about boxing.

    Even if it wasn't Mike Tyson, his opinion is valid. Greatness is not measured the way Floyd measures it.

    Tyson has a sound understanding of boxing fundamentals and gleaned knowledge from one of the greatest trainers in history. No matter how much you mention his history people will still listen to what he has to say. If you find this hard to take that's too bad.

    Yep. He's a scared little man. That was a lot of insight.

    That's not the only thing people cared about. It was also how Floyd belittled Ali's historic victory against Foreman. Ali is venerated around the world. If someone attacks that man's legacy there will be a retaliation.

    So nothing negative can be said about him?

    Isn't Ali ducking Holmes the reason why we have so many belts now?

    No one untouchable.

    He called himself better than Ali, Leonard and Robinson before the DLH fight too and fans reacted somehow similarly, minus Mike Tyson's comments. The newbies/parasites temporarily following today obviously don't know about this because they didn't exist back then.

    Fact is, Mayweather has done that before to promote fights by generating negative energy and since it's easy to generate attention this way, he will continue to do it.

    They always take the bait. :lol:

    They know nothing about the sport and think everyone should be super humble and quiet. Unless they're a heavyweight. Then they can bite ears off and act like animals, and they'll think it's ok.

    Well, Spinks is the one that gave up the belt. But Ali should've never fought him.
