i wish i had a fraction of his boxing talent...for zombies. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1237334805.jpg |
I think we all have a fraction of his boxing talent. I can chew off body parts if I have to. Yep, like so many others, he had it all and gave it away.
|
He wouldn´t even do as Crocodile Dundee´s sidekick anymore.
|
What a great exemple of human being.
|
Somehow Darwin´s theses seems even more plausible looking at that photo. How can we not be related to the big apes..

Mike has an other side that was never public. I have seen it. The guy is a victim, of course. A gentle man, horribly twisted by the media and yes, even his own publicists(for their own gain). I used to see him driving around Albany in his Mercedes convertible(4 seater, custom red over red/white), driving those little girls to the mall.

The sign behind him is appropriate.

Oh, I have a very healthy respect for his boxing skills. I boxed for ten years in my youth. I am actually very sorry he left boxing, he was a rare talent.
|
I remember the first time I saw him fight. He was a killing machine. He came out and laid waste to his opponent. It was over in round 1.
Not the brightest fork in the drawer. |

Professional career spanned 31 years.
76 wins, 5 losses, 68 T/KO's Looked like that when he came out of retirement in 87. No way in hell I'd get in a ring with him unless I had a gun. Anyone? Have had the pleasure of working/spending time with him. A true gentleman. |
I was in a hotel room the other night and a fight of his came on ESPN Classic. I think Tyson was like 16-0 at the time, so it was still pretty early on in his career.
I followed boxing for a time and I boxed myself as an amateur for a while. Watching Tyson's fight from back then was just awe-inspiring. So fast and so powerful. The man was a machine. There's something pure about boxing...something wonderful. And Tyson did it all about as well as a human being can do it. It's a shame he made such poor choices in his personal life. I actually do pity him in a way, as I'm sure he was taken advantage of. Not an excuse, but a shame nonetheless. |
I completely forgot about this guy until I saw this thread, he is just your typical........................................... .................................................. .................................................. .............................................:D

I always wondered if I'd get in the ring with him for a million $. I could probably stay away from him for half of the first round, and then he'd take a shot or two at me and it be lights out. Question is would I be in a coma or not after that...

Probably the most tragic figure in modern sports. When his first trainer and mentor (in life in addition to the ring) died (I forget his name), the vultures started to circle. Mike was ill-equipped to deal with them. He never saw what they were really after. As ferocious and focused as he was in the ring early in his career, he never matured beyond a big kid. He craved attention and wanted to make everyone around him happy, and the self-serving bastards that moved in on him took full advantage of that. Including his ex-wife and the cheap whore who cried "rape". I could add them to that "special place in hell" thread.
I wish him all the best. He's been "rode like a rented mule" for most of his life. I hope he has found peace and happiness. |
