How did this not cause instant death?

Hell, watch the Buster Douglas fight.
Buster had better fundamentals,footwork and athleticism that night and it wasn't close.
If Buster had the heart and desire of Holyfield there's no doubt he coulda been a premier HW.

That cat probably felt that uppercut for the rest of his life.

How does a 19 punch combination not put him on the ground?

Considering the excuses for the career failures of the beloved Iron Mike I should have expected a backlash:
Career failures? Dude was the fricking guy. He had ridiculous fame as a teenager. You couldn't handle that shite. No one can.

Foreman was a Beast.
If you recall Tyson's camp avoided George Foreman, Tommy Morison, Riddick Bowe, Butter Bean and Ray Mercer his entire career.
He was only forced to fight Evander because Evander was vocal in making Tyson face his judgement day to the public every chance he got. Tyson dodged him for years after thier first encounter in the GYM.

quote:Tyson's 3 best wins were probably Pinklon Thomas ,Tucker & Razor Ruddock. Not exactly a murderers row.
Then when he fought real fighters in the 90's - he couldn't fricking beat any of them.
ANY OF THEM! Even set-up fights, he lost.
What's the best win Tyson ever had?
Tony fricking Tucker?
Larry Holmes (38 years old) was past it & hadn't fought in 2 years before losing to Tyson, but I give him credit for being the only man to knock Holmes out.
Spinks( a blown up Light Heavyweight like Bob Foster ) was Tyson's signature win . Foster ( a top 3 or 4 LHW of all time) was destroyed in 2 rounds by Joe Frazier & knocked down 7 times by Ali before a stoppage. Spinks would have suffered a similar fate in the 70's to Frazier , Ali,etc........

quote:Or maybe Tyson was exposed for what he was against better competition?At least you admit that the Heavyweight division was trash & Tyson did clean it out. But Tyson's best wins were arguably against Pinklon Thomas, Tony Tucker & Razor Ruddock. Not a great resume.
The truth is somewhere in the middle. Tyson had great talent and training early. The division was weak and he didn't have much competition. He lost fo
A blown up LHW in Spinks who got demolished just as Bob Foster did to Frazier & Ali. That's Tyson's signature win ,but people barely remember the beatings Bob Foster took to Elite Heavyweights in the70's because the Division wasn't as weak.
I just get tired of the lame excuses for Tyson.

have no idea what this means.
Was Tyson a street thug in Brooklyn, robbing people when he was 12?
Was Tyson the youngest heavyweight champion of all time?
So what exactly was it that you were trying to convey again?
So no more lame excuses for Tyson flaming out when many Champs have come from worse backgrounds & had turbulent lives as well?
Get back in here Vibe with video / gifs of Tyson Knocking out Jesse Ferguson & Lou Savarese.
Because Tyson's resume certainly isn't much to speak of when talking of all time greats.

I would pay to watch anyone on this site just take one of those from Tyson. Dude still works out and you don't forget how to hit. That's a punch into eating through a straw.

You had assclown on here saying Tyson wasnt technical.

“Resume”
Who else has youngest heavyweight champ of all time on their resume?

The same Larry Holmes who, at 42, beat Ray Mercer and took Holyfield the distance, right?
So was he finished at 38, but not at 42?
The same Larry Holmes who, when he came back in his 40s said he would fight anybody but Mike Tyson. Same Larry Holmes, right?

You realize this is wildly incorrect as well?
They were scheduled to fight in 1990. Holyfield was his next fight after Douglas.
Do you enjoy just blatantly lying? Is that your thing?

"Thanks for your info on Bob Foster," said no one.
Yes, Joe Frazier would have beaten Michael Spinks. And Mike Tyson would have beaten Joe Frazier. What's your point?
