yep ... all time great.
all the time the greats fall to new greats.
thats the way it goes, I guess, I wish the dude won... I love the fury in that bastard ... but half of the coolness of him, was that he could back that shat up!!
what round did he lose in ??
and what kinda loss?
4th round and it was a good fight but he lost his wind early, that nobody he was fighting was taking a beating waiting for him to get tired. Rocky Balboa fashion.
hmmm interesting.
Classic Tyson tho... come out blazin... dude musta knew it... let him blow all his gas and took him out.
CLASSIC.
hmmm, whens the rematch
ehehhe
later.
:hello:
The problem with guys like Tyson is when they started making big bucks, they started to afford taking a 'year-off' to party hard and live destructive lifestly, and only coming back 2-3months before a fight to train for it. Then comes a newcomer that is training all year round and has a great base stamina and he whoops them into reality.
I have to say that I LOVEd Tyson in the beg..I had something like nine or ten of his first HBO fights on tape...Ive always said that the best thing that happenned to him was Cus D'mato...the worst was..DOn KIng....King used him like a pimp uses his best whore...wore him out...pumped his head full of s***...got rid of Kevin Rooney his lonfg time trainer...shame man...Its been like watching a train wreck with Tyson...you dont want to watch but you do...I seriously wonder what kind of depression this guy is going to fall into...whose going to be around him being 38 minllion in debt...and who would really care...He still had some of the old fight in him..but ..his time is done...
I'm not exactly surprised...
I'm just disgusted its a Brit he lost to. He withdraw from fighting an Irish fighter only last Month. Oh well, British media will be insufferable for a week now.
Far from an all-time great IMO. He lost all his major fights. Please show me his credentials other than knocking out a few glass joe, no-names in the first round when he first stepped on the scene.
You ever stepped in the ring against a heavyweight or felt a heavyweight punch?
LOL all time greats, these guys would breath on you and youd be in hospital.
I'm not surprised he lost by the way, guess weve got another Rahman on our hands, theyll hype up the next fight and Tyson will knock him out in the first round, I hate when the boxing commissions do that but I guess theyve got to make money, dont we all?
LOL training with an injury and he tore his ligament in the first round, do you think he could win under those circumstances?
When I tore my lig I took 6 months off training, my leg was in PAIN I couldnt even throw a single punch, if Tyson can do that much with a torn ligament in tip top shape he could murder somebody.
I thought you said Tyson would win in 30 seconds????Quote:

Yeah thats UNTIL I logged off Friday night switched on Sky News and saw him hopping onto a bench on one leg from injury, I knew he was injured and therefore not at his best.
Anyway my point was you cant down somebody till your better than them, how can you say something about Tyson when you wouldnt dare say it to his face and hed knock you out with a whiff of his fist?
Thank God I didn't go. Thank you. Still upset Tyson didn't win though, but I didn't in no way think it was going to be a walk through for him, and it deffiently proved not to be.
ummm.... he doesn't claim to be a heavywieght, he IS an heavywieghtQuote:

Tyson didn't "talk the talk" infact, he had NOTHING bad to say about his opponent at all, he was very gentlemanly about it
simple as thatQuote:
