Good assessment. You're right, so many people think Tyson was just a big puncher. Sure, he could punch like a truck but he himself said his best quality was his elusiveness. In his prime he was impossible to hit cleanly and that meant he could do pretty much what he wanted to you. His defence was severely underrated too, check him duck Tillis' punches,like five of them,Mike almost touches the floor he ducks so low. Also against Mitch Green, he stood right in front of him, goading him with his hands by his side, and green could not land a shot on him. He was one of a kind. We will never see another one like him. I hope we do, because boxing needs a devastating young heavyweight to take over.

When you hit thar alarm clock espically in the UK 🇬🇧 knowing most of the time it was back to bed straigh away. Pure talent and in my view wasted gexwas like a shooting star. I wish he had the discipline of some of the other fighters like a Holyfield and Lewis etc. Personally I think Holyfield had Mike's number and would beat him 8 out 10 times. Great memories early on I think he was shown on ITV then sky. So decline though amd hard to watch at the end .

Around that time I have never known such a buzz leading up to fights when Tyson was involved and it has never ever been matched by anyone. The man was so ferocious and scary too :) and the aura around him was almost non-human. I can remember sneaking out of my bedroom window to go and watch Tyson fight because I lived in a little Town 30 miles outside of London, UK and his fights were usually 4am for us. That was his reach, a little Town in England and all us kids could do was talk about Mike Tyson. Brilliant memories that will always bring a smile to my face.

You are assuming an awful lot. Tyson at the end of the day lost all his potential career defining fights. A lot of fighters look devastating on the way up when being fed cannon fodder. I am not suggesting Jesse Ferguson was cannon fodder at this stage of his career but nevertheless Tyson fought across three decades and his best wins were against a dragged out of retirement Larry Holmes aged nearly 40 yoa and a blown up LH in Michael Spinks. He then spent the 1990s avoiding most of the up and coming top contenders. He was only 24 yoa when he was beaten up by Buster Douglas and was beaten twice by Holyfield and by Lennox Lewis. Tyson spent the 1990s ducking Lewis until he needed a pay day. No-one was saying Tyson was past his prime when he fought Holyfield. In fact Tyson was favourite to win the first fight. Once Tyson was "found out" then the myth of the Tyson "past his prime" nonsense was retrospectively applied. When Tyson eventually fought Lewis the fight was regarded as a 50:50 in the US even though Lewis was always going to be too big and too talented for Tyson at pretty much any stage of the 1990s. Bowe and Vitali would also have been too big for Tyson and then fighters like Mercer, Tua, Morrison, McCall et al would have given him a run for his money if Tyson had not been so protected by his management.
@Kaiserbill992 жыл бұрын
@@Kaiserbill99 I think the problem was his lifestyle. Prior to the Douglas fight he was out the whole night, never slept and was doing drugs. This unfortunately carried on through the rest of his career. A prime clean Tyson would have beaten a lot of the names you mentioned. Lewis even admitted to it during an interview.
@struesbob74932 жыл бұрын
@@struesbob7493 I think Lewis is being gracious although Lewis, despite being older than Tyson, took the Olympics route so did not turn professional until approaching three years after Tyson had won a world title. Lewis would not have been up to speed as a professional relative to Tyson until the 1990s. It does not matter how Tyson's life spiralled into chaos. The fact remains that he has no stellar wins on his win record so it is but conjecture how he would have coped with the like of Holyfield and Lewis had be stayed on the straight and narrow. Coulda shoulda woulda counts for nothing and at the end of the day any young half decent prospect can look good knocking over tomato cans and relics from the 1970s.

I’ve got to be honest, I grew up in the 80’s and Tyson was the first Heavyweight Champion I remember, in my generation, there being a lot of buzz about. I’m guilty of buying into the media “bad boy” image that was painted of him and always wanted to see an underdog pull up an upset. As time goes on, I’m starting to see and TRULY appreciate what amazing Fighter he was! I’m starting to recognize that he belongs right up there, in any mention of greatness among HW champs. I also respect him as a human being for confronting his own shortcomings and issues openly and honestly. Hats off to you Iron Mike, you are Legend !

Mike Tyson was an absolute force of nature and an artist. He split the public... those that were in awe and those who couldn’t seperate the boxer from the man, he had to be vicious, and he judged so and got played hard at the first manufactured opportunity. That rape trial really hurt him and cost him valuable years in his prime. He became jaded and was focusing less on boxing and more on being the monster many wanted him to be. I think he’s done a lot of healing over the last 20 years, he may have a few regrets but he’s got a whole lot more to be proud of.

If Mike Tyson had of being slightly less open to being influenced as a young man, especially after Gus departed, if he had never of met a certain 4 people, (so called friends) particularly later on a certain female, he could have gone on to be absolutely the greatest heavyweight boxer ever to exist, no question. Now he is one of the very greats of the ring, which is an astounding accomplishment for a guy who had the hardest of starts in life. Mike was so close to being exalted above even that illustrious group, because Mike was genuinely a once in a 100 year talent to come along with the potential to stand head and shoulders above all comers. Unfortunately, it was ruined by a few personality traits that were present but were not by any means unsurmountable. You wake up in the morning and go out your front door. Whether you decide to turn left or right, will determine if you will get to go back through that same door ever again.

The whole package, skill, speed, movement, stamina. In this fight he just looks on another level. The Tyson in this video would beat any heavyweight today. Nobody can deal with that power and speed.
Stamina was his power. He looked as fresh and hit just as fast and hard in round 8, than he did in round 1. Definitely a monster and deserving of the boxing world's respect.
Good assessment. You're right, so many people think Tyson was just a big puncher. Sure, he could punch like a truck but he himself said his best quality was his elusiveness. In his prime he was impossible to hit cleanly and that meant he could do pretty much what he wanted to you. His defence was severely underrated too, check him duck Tillis' punches,like five of them,Mike almost touches the floor he ducks so low. Also against Mitch Green, he stood right in front of him, goading him with his hands by his side, and green could not land a shot on him. He was one of a kind. We will never see another one like him. I hope we do, because boxing needs a devastating young heavyweight to take over.

Those punches would drop a horse !
The two things that stand out are 1) How impressive it is that Jesse could take that punishment for 5 rounds and 2) How Mike was able to keep that pace/pressure...It was relentless!
Yep. There are just some fighters who can take a beating. Ray Mercer was another. Tougher than a boot. Evander Holyfield. George Foreman.
Hell yeah them body shots were brutal,Ferguson had some heart.
I 100% agree with you. I think the only other fighter that took a more severe beating was Pinklon Thomas. I just couldn’t believe how he took so many powerful blows directly to the head without actually dieing in the ring.
@@thegreatbourne7889 Yeah. I feel bad for the guy. He was pretty shot when Tommy Morrison blew him out. Julio Cesar Chavez was like that too. You could hit that guy with a 2x4 and he wouldn't go down. I was watching the Frankie Randall fight live when Randall put Chavez on the deck. Down goes Chavez!!!!
Khabib vibes 😁
Mike Tyson is a legend. A man like that comes out every 100 years. We're so lucky to witness his greatness.
There will never b3 another tyson
Was looking for this comment and agree.
YES IRON MIKE TYSON WILL NEVER BE DUPLICATED
Tyson in his prime is absolutely a thing of beauty. Slipping punches like a shadow and terrifying in the ring. Power, speed and the movement was 2nd to none. Without a doubt on the Mt Rushmore of boxing GOATs.
This man was poised and totally sane in interviews when he first started. Dave Chappelle was right the environment of Hollywood is sick.
u mean when youre surrounded by elitists lmao its all over not just hollywood
In all fairness, Mike didn’t do himself any favors
@@LunsJail Mike also lived a fucked up life of violence from the get-go, it's a wonder that the man managed to keep so much of his anger directed into the sport and not blow up more often and in more devastating ways. I think he's a very remarkably sane man even despite a few moments of him losing his cool.
This is Kid Dynamite. Those body punches you could hear on a tiny mic 15 ft away.
didnt seem to faze ferguson much
@@jamescarr4662 he got knocked out lol
I could feel them and I live in the Netherlands…
Tyson hitting so hard people in the audience thought it was an earthquake. Relax Relax it's just Tyson punishing Ferguson Lol. ✌
@@Jhoekstra ja hier in belgie ook gevoeld
Mike was always so well spoken, measured with his words. It was the people who were always goading the man.
I love the way he used the word "perhaps" at the ends of the video.
No one would make fun of him if he had a deeper voice
@@shawnseguro5184 Crazy anyone ever made fun of him at all, even with his voice. One of the baddest people on the planet.
I love Mike Tyson. He's a troubled soul. Be careful please, he was convicted of rape in his prime. We're all watching a trainwreck. He's okay today, back then obviously needed medication. When was he off them? Just before a fight? We'll never know
Mike trying to use big words he barely knew the meaning of always tickled me to death: devastating, excruciating, he wears a big word out. So funny.
Tyson in 1985-1988 was not only devastating, but also very very beautiful to watch, he was pure perfection, fast, precise, strong, evasive, he had it all.
My god that right upper cut was vicious. The power Mike had with either arm will probably never be seen again. I’m glad I got to see the greatest boxer ever
Normally I'd have to look 👀 at replays to see where the knock out was. That on I saw clear as daylight and knew he'd fall before he did.
He was a phenom. Power of a super heavyweight and speed of a lightweight.
My god, I forgot how relentless Tyson was attacking Jessie’s body in the opening round😱
Tyson neglected to work the body in a lot of his later fights. Too bad.
@@presence5426 Yeah, he became a headhunter. People don't understand just how far his training and discipline had fallen after he had won it all.
He's pressing him hard for sure. It's just in an attempt to get him to stop defending his head 😁 after the pain gets too much his hands will drop to protect the body shots. Tyson was chess playing this boy and was focusing on the hit he was taking to the body and the hit he was going to give the moment his guard dropped.
@@garryb.1334 People forgot how tactical Tyson was early in his boxing career! The start of his downfall was win he split with Rooney!
@@Gamevet Exactly!
that tyson was Untouchable no questions those punchs landing made me wince so hard..respect for ferguson for taking them..any man that stepped in..ruddock and green also took a vicious full fight beating to super impressive
Simply Astonishing! That was like a 23 punch combination 😲 Never seen anything like it. The stamina it takes to unleash that kind of barrage of power punches is crazy. Iron Mike is an All-Time Legend 🥊
I felt every punch watching this. Have watched so many of Tyson’s fights but It still shocks me how hard he hits every time.
He trained not to punch his opponent but to punch through them.
brooo me too!!!!!!!!! for real it was scary.. i was rewind every punch
Buster douglas hits harder..lol
Please
A lot of the contenders that went up gainst Mike said it was like going through a crash accident whilst driving a semi ..
Before all the bs this Mike was absolutely incredible. The sound of those shots is awesome.
No other way to put it... Tyson was a beast in his prime. Extraordinary physical shape. Lightning fast. 110% confidence in his ability. Came into each round looking eerily fresh... Just like it was the first 20 seconds of the first round. He was in unbelievable shape. Hit like a freight train. Fast like he was a real life superhero. Just WOW!!!
I like how humble Tyson is, no trash talking, just stating what he observed and thinks about it.
The power and intent of every punch that he threw was immense. Every single punch he threw were with bad intentions. No heavyweight in history could have handled that power at that time.
I believe if he fought Lennox Lewis in 86' he would have beat him.
@@dallaz7048 100%
This guy could have beat him if he kept it up kzhead.info/sun/napqf9eqenN3rIk/bejne.html
@@dallaz7048 there isn’t a boxer in history who could have beat a mid to late eighties Tyson. There will never be another. Throw records out the window in his prime Tyson was the best to ever do it
Wilder
His energy was phenomenal..his power second to none..it looked like he wasn't that far from killing that dude, tearing him apart limb from limb like that...the man is absolutely incredible yet terrifying..
He was like the hulk here. The longer the fight went on, the angrier and stronger he got. What a monster!
Man he was just overwhelming. If you can handle his power, you cant handle the speed, the defence, the combinations, the ferocity, the fitness and the will to win. No boxer in the history of the sport had everything Mike had as an athlete. The craziest of it all he was a heavyweight. What a nightmare it would be to face someone like this.
The aggression in Mike Tyson explosive punches is absolutely breathtaking. Incredible.
Those punches were right out of a video game, Mike was just simply a beast in there.
3:19 looks like a video game. Tyson was unreal. You won't see anything like that in heavyweight boxing before or after Mike. The most intense and brutal fighter ever.
I do boxing I promise you it take all your stamina to do that.
@@kt-limbo freaking impressive, he still delivers power after this in his punches, guy is a machine.
It's both terrifying and awe inspiring. The speed and insane power behind those combinations and uppercuts is superhuman. Reminds me of Ivan Drago in Rocky 4 except that was fiction and Tyson was the real deal.
The most brutal fighter of all time!!!! MIKE was unbeatable right here. He never would have lost if he stayed focused. KING TYSON!
Tyson was a Beast no one wanted a part of in his prime !!! The GOAT, Mike Tyson !!!!
I’m convinced Tyson was a brilliant fighter from the beginning he’s a very quick thinker articulate and sure he had a temper problem but he also had humility and self awareness even back then. His power was stupid, and in such a small space it threw everybody off. He’s the GOAT as far as I’m concerned, I don’t think anyone could beat prime Tyson
I agree
@everyday tenor Tyson was much faster than Foreman and difficult to hit
His out-of-ring behavior got him stereotyped, and not necessarily unjustly. But in the ring, he was a scientist. Everything about his style is a product of calculation. He moves unlike any other boxer. Whether that's _better_ or not is a debatable matter but the guy was not winging it in there. It's not false bravado when he says he knew exactly where the punches would go and that he was dead accurate.
@everyday tenor sure lol
He is a monster but treats the interviewers with respect and also doesn't show bad ego. I respect that
Tyson is one of humanities greatest treasures. So glad to exist in the same era as this man
I would put my money on this version of Tyson against any other heavyweight of all time.
Ali would make me rich.
And you would probably lose money
Tyson would have KO'd Ali after just a few minutes
@@Twizzledoc187 prime Tyson punches Ali's head of it's shoulders
I agree Luke. Pound per pound in the middle of his prime - my opinion is he’s the very best that ever lived. Frightening how powerful his punches were. I know many will disagree- But that’s my opinion !
I actually love how honest & respectful he generally he is in his post interviews
I remember staying awake till dawn to watch Mike fighting. I was one of the luckiest people to watch him live and for free! Undoubtedly the most exciting heavyweight in history in my opinion.
1. This Tyson would've ruled the world. 2. Those body shots are insane, like sledgehammers. 3. This opponent had to be a badass, absorbing so much punishment until his body finally caved in. Props to him for going multiple rounds with Tyson going full steam.
Go check on him and see if he is still alive !!
Mike Tyson was a beast in his prime,still in great shape,watch some of his recent training vids n he clearly could still be brutal
Yeah just ask the douche bag on the plane 😄
@Young Goodman BrownThat drunken punk on the plane deserved a thashing. He was an irritating, disrespectful little weasel, he wouldn’t leave Tyson alone.
Watch his most recent fight against roy Jones happed recently
@@kse8348 Tysons recent bout with Roy Jones was a testament to his extraordinary fitness, experience and natural talent. Age takes away some things in time , but never the enthusiasm and love for an activity that you grew up with and was encouraged by parents, patrons, and mentors.
@Young Goodman Brown fuck with the bull and you'll get the horns
Nobody could live with Mike at this age legend
Absolutely nobody!
You are assuming an awful lot. Tyson at the end of the day lost all his potential career defining fights. A lot of fighters look devastating on the way up when being fed cannon fodder. I am not suggesting Jesse Ferguson was cannon fodder at this stage of his career but nevertheless Tyson fought across three decades and his best wins were against a dragged out of retirement Larry Holmes aged nearly 40 yoa and a blown up LH in Michael Spinks. He then spent the 1990s avoiding most of the up and coming top contenders. He was only 24 yoa when he was beaten up by Buster Douglas and was beaten twice by Holyfield and by Lennox Lewis. Tyson spent the 1990s ducking Lewis until he needed a pay day. No-one was saying Tyson was past his prime when he fought Holyfield. In fact Tyson was favourite to win the first fight. Once Tyson was "found out" then the myth of the Tyson "past his prime" nonsense was retrospectively applied. When Tyson eventually fought Lewis the fight was regarded as a 50:50 in the US even though Lewis was always going to be too big and too talented for Tyson at pretty much any stage of the 1990s. Bowe and Vitali would also have been too big for Tyson and then fighters like Mercer, Tua, Morrison, McCall et al would have given him a run for his money if Tyson had not been so protected by his management.
@@Kaiserbill99 I think the problem was his lifestyle. Prior to the Douglas fight he was out the whole night, never slept and was doing drugs. This unfortunately carried on through the rest of his career. A prime clean Tyson would have beaten a lot of the names you mentioned. Lewis even admitted to it during an interview.
@@struesbob7493 I think Lewis is being gracious although Lewis, despite being older than Tyson, took the Olympics route so did not turn professional until approaching three years after Tyson had won a world title. Lewis would not have been up to speed as a professional relative to Tyson until the 1990s. It does not matter how Tyson's life spiralled into chaos. The fact remains that he has no stellar wins on his win record so it is but conjecture how he would have coped with the like of Holyfield and Lewis had be stayed on the straight and narrow. Coulda shoulda woulda counts for nothing and at the end of the day any young half decent prospect can look good knocking over tomato cans and relics from the 1970s.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion
I’ve got to be honest, I grew up in the 80’s and Tyson was the first Heavyweight Champion I remember, in my generation, there being a lot of buzz about. I’m guilty of buying into the media “bad boy” image that was painted of him and always wanted to see an underdog pull up an upset. As time goes on, I’m starting to see and TRULY appreciate what amazing Fighter he was! I’m starting to recognize that he belongs right up there, in any mention of greatness among HW champs. I also respect him as a human being for confronting his own shortcomings and issues openly and honestly. Hats off to you Iron Mike, you are Legend !
My family used to sit in front of the TV and go crazy when Mike Tyson fought. The man was absolutely incredible to watch.
Mike Tyson was an absolute force of nature and an artist. He split the public... those that were in awe and those who couldn’t seperate the boxer from the man, he had to be vicious, and he judged so and got played hard at the first manufactured opportunity. That rape trial really hurt him and cost him valuable years in his prime. He became jaded and was focusing less on boxing and more on being the monster many wanted him to be. I think he’s done a lot of healing over the last 20 years, he may have a few regrets but he’s got a whole lot more to be proud of.
Totally rehabbed his image from the inside out, i love to see him happy and at peace headed into his 60’s.
Very well written. Thanks 🙏🏼
Wow, Tyson's head movement was stunning. I watched him back in the day and never realised how important that was for him. TBH the fights were usually over too quick to study him properly lol.
Still the most exciting and ferocious heavyweight there has ever been AND he had a solid chin. The sound of those punches was absolutely stupendous
You’ll never see a fighter like Mike again he’s the greatest 👏👏👏
Two terms in prison and you get out and turn your life around. That's a champion.
Mike’s combo of a right body shot/right uppercut is one of my favorite of his. He could throw those two hits so quickly, even the announcers missed it sometimes.
There is no boxer that ever lived that would be confident stepping into the ring with this version of Tyson What an animal
I agree with you
truth🤣
Due to life circumstances throughout his prime, I missed Mike Tyson's fights, but I often heard about them on the news. What a PHENOMINAL BEAST of a FIGHTER!😡😳😬
Aside from his speed and power which was amazing considering how built and stocky he is (usually that muscle mass would slow you down), the early Tyson was SO hard to hit. His defense, the head movement, and the lateral motion on his aggression were unparalleled.
Dude was like a video game character with maxed out stats 😂
Did you see Clay/Ali in the early and mid sixties, "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee."
@@aarondigby9859 tyso is FAR more vicious and explosive but ali had more boxing ability
@@ChrisPBacon9 Exactly, it was like he never tire out. You can see many times how Jesse Ferguson try to use his size advantage and play turtle as if he was trying to let Tyson exhaust himself but it just ends in failure. No amount of defense can stop a prime Mike Tyson from breaking you.
This was on the way to being peak Iron Mike, lots of movement and combinations and viscous power and speed. Something to behold.
He was just so damn good it’s crazy. The speed of a middleweight but re power than most any heavyweight. His skill was off the charts. Pretty amazing.
I will never get tired of watching miike Tyson fighting videos
If Cuz and Kevin Rooney had of been around Mike his whole career and Mike was guided by the right people, there is no way Mike would have ever lost.
Can you imagine if Teddy Atlas somehow stayed in his corner?
Well, when you're well past your prime, it doesn't matter how good of a fighter you were, you're bound to be beaten by the best fighters in their prime.
Most spot on post by far
Fast twitch muscle, whole body rotation and leaning into his punches every time. Devastation
This is another win that looks incredible for Mike, Ferguson victory list is incredible and was fights of the year well into the 90's and Mike fractured and broke his entire face!
I absolutely love this little series of short stories about the *Champ of Champs!!* I always end up coming back to watch again!!!
My god... after seeing and hearing the impact, that punches from tyson could knockout, even kill any human from the planet..
I was a young man when he first started boxing and I followed him from the beginning he was awesome, I personally think he was the greatest fighter ever, he should have never left his trainer

Wow, I love watched boxing since I'm a young kid in the early 80s, now in my late 40s, I have to say, I've never in my life seen a boxer with as much raw power as Mike! Can't even imagine if Cus D'Amato never passed away & Tyson hadn't let Kevin Rooney go, Tyson would've never lost a fight!!
In his prime, he is the greatest boxer EVER. No one else comes close to that level of speed, power, and ferocity.

There's nothing like Tyson's fight... 💯💯
Amazing. Turn up the volume. Those punches are solid and Mike was letting it all out. Thunderous punches. Not even winded, looks like he didn't start the fight yet. Amazing.
The most relentless, and endless surge of power from Tyson. One of his most electric fights. You could hear those hits connecting from all the mics around the ring. He is without doubt the best boxer since Ali. Keep on fighting Iron Mike!
Tyson was a complete beast in the ring. Arguably the greatest.
We may never ever see a sequence of punches like what Tyson gives @3:20 My God!!! That was a clinic
I don't think anybody thought history could have handled Mr Tyson is this form.... to much skill, power and ferociousness
That's why tyson is the GOAT heavyweight and it is hard to understand why some people think otherwise. Ferguson was a good fighter but this was no contest
History ??? ARE YOU KIDDING ME ??? / Remember George Foreman vs Joe Frazier ??? Exact same result if Tyson faced Foreman in their primes !!!###
No doubt!
@CMLAFLAMME he did beat tubbs, bruno, Thomas, Holmes, spinks, bone crusher, berbeck all of whom had been champions. All except bone crush were spectacular ko's.
@Rick g So tired of people talking about Tyson's prime. Only boxer in history whose 'prime' was when he was 18-21. Apparently, Tyson was part boxer, part female gymnast, since that is a similar prime. Tyson's prime magically ended when he quality of opponents reached higher levels. He is not even close to the #1 all time. Is not a top 5 heavy, and maybe, MAYBE is a top 10.
I think I'm going to watch this again.
Those body rips followed by Tyson’s uppercut’s were sensational 👊
After reading these comments about Master Tyson, I'm left with no more words to say regarding this Legend
Subscribed mate, love Tyson and it's easy to forget just how ferocious he was back then. He destroyed good fighters with ease. It's a shame he dumped his team for that lizard King, his legacy could have been even greater. Still a boxing legend though.
Yer man. If he had stayed with cus and cus never died I think mike would never have been beaten
I sincerely doubt there will ever be a fighter as virtuoso as Mike Tyson. And don't get me wrong - there has been absolutely insane fighters after him, and will be.
Another good one, thank you. Mike Tyson was a phenom and it will be a long time before we see another like him.
Tyson only kept getting better with each fight. Power, speed, technique, strategist. The man is a beast.
The sound of those punches is just insane The power behind Mike Tyson's right uppercut is how Professor Hubert Farnsworth Powers the Planet Express spaceship
If Mike Tyson had of being slightly less open to being influenced as a young man, especially after Gus departed, if he had never of met a certain 4 people, (so called friends) particularly later on a certain female, he could have gone on to be absolutely the greatest heavyweight boxer ever to exist, no question. Now he is one of the very greats of the ring, which is an astounding accomplishment for a guy who had the hardest of starts in life. Mike was so close to being exalted above even that illustrious group, because Mike was genuinely a once in a 100 year talent to come along with the potential to stand head and shoulders above all comers. Unfortunately, it was ruined by a few personality traits that were present but were not by any means unsurmountable. You wake up in the morning and go out your front door. Whether you decide to turn left or right, will determine if you will get to go back through that same door ever again.
Omg, finally found someone who words are exactly whatnI have been saying for years. Totally agree with you
I disagree real fans know he is the greatest 🐐
One of my favourite knockouts of all time!!! The greatest!
Those hits are so loud compared to anything else, the pure power is unreal!
I’ve watched almost all of Tyson’s fights and I can’t recall EVER seeing this man throw a jab. lol He gets so close in there that he can essentially only throw hooks, body shots,and sharp uppercuts; it’s fucking insane. No wonder they all had so much trouble with him. He’s like nothing they’ve ever seen before. Just a total menace in the ring.
He has thrown a few jabs..correct me if I’m wrong but I think he threw a few nice ones in the frank bruno fight
You think, if Tyson was still in great shape and fought Lennox at 212 and not 235 (his heaviest at the time), and still had the determination to train to win as a young Mike, he would've beaten him.
@@MikeBrownLegend If Cus was with Mike at his absolute prime, Mike would beat any man on the planet without a doubt. Makes you think about the crazy potential Tyson had if he was kept in the right hands, same thing with Ali. If he wasn’t banned who knows what greatness the world would’ve witnessed...
@@ROCKY-yv4ed Yes definitely. Turns out he jabs all the time, but his just don’t “look” like jabs to me. I’m so used to seeing it used by bigger fighters with more length; with them it’s so pronounced and obvious.
@@MikeBrownLegend No doubt about it.
It’s very rare to have both extreme speed and extreme power all packaged into one bundle! Mike Tyson was one of the few people that had this. I actually can’t think of anyone else that had it to the extreme that Mike Tyson did!
Wow he was something special (i saw similar (much lower quality than this) highlights million times, but still amazes me). The period when he was training super hard without doing the "night life" he was UNBEATABLE This new channel is dope as the other you made. Video quality is ultra sweet 🤩. Thank you man great, great job 💪
Tyson in his own words: The audience usually don't cheer for me, they cheer for the knockout...
