    I watched that fight live, but I disagree he beat Mike Tyson, he beat someone that looked like Mike Tyson, the real Mike Tyson would have shredded him i n the first round

    Mike Tyson started his decline when Cus D'amato died. D'amato was the only guy who could keep him somewhat under control and focused on boxing. Then when he changed trainers, his decline was certain.

    Tyson spent the five days prior to that fight in a Japanese $#@! house.



    Mike Tyson could have been the greatest fighter of all time.
