Tyson was NEVER one of the greatest boxers. Guy has no skill. He survived on power only for so many years and now thats hes aged he has nothing.

Danny Williams wasnt even ranked in the top 20 and totally destroyed Tyson.
Pffssss, are you kidding?! He was the greatest champion that has ever been. In his prime when he was at the top, he established himself as the greatest fighter of all time IMO. Really it was the loss of Cus that sent his career into a down spiral - Cus trained him the classic "count" technique of boxing - which is exactly what Tyson needed to be a great fighter because it basically took all the skill out of fighting and allowed him to rely on instinct and pattern recognition. Hell the man even knew enough to set up a retirement account for Tyson before he was champ -- so if Tyson can ever MAKE it to retirement age he'll actually have some cash coming in from that. I suggest you do some research on the technique in how Tyson was instructed - there's a few websites out there detailing it.

In his prime he had a chin of steel, was nearly impossible to hit because of all of his upper body movement, and of course the well known power. No fighter has ever been as complete a package as he was at that time. Even Lennox Lewis commented on how he hit Tyson with a few "titanic shots" that would have floored anyone else but Tyson remained standing...and this was after Tyson's prime. He's easily beatable now because of horrible trainers and his heart isn't into it.

hehe all you had to do was dodge his punches and last till the 2nd or 3rd round ... he's easy to knockout once you get there hehe

that game rocked
For real...I didn't beat him until 3 years ago I was home on summer break and got the old NES out. The first round is all timing and he even has a couple punches he fakes you out with (bastard programers!). Let's be honest how many people have beat Mike Tyson?

*BTW after 17 years I still remember: 007 373 5963

Damn Natey, now that I'm not behind my firewall at work, that video was off the chains! I'd be scared.
 
Tyson: A loser now. A loser then. Yeah! Even when he was winning - he was a loser. What an uneducated sorry-ass!
 
My favorite Tyson quote: "I'm in the hurt business; this is what I do." (said in a high pitched voice with a lisp of course) hahah.

....OH, and that quote is followed closely by his 1 semi recent interview where some girl called him some vulgar name and he responds with "I'll eat your asshole alive you b****." Hahhahahah
