    The difference between prime Mike Tyson and modern fighters is that they're trying to get points and win, while Tyson would be trying to kill you.

Staying low with the uncanny ability to dodge while closing the distance and getting inside. Plus he had that springboard punching ability to come up for air with a devastating hook you NEVER see coming.

      Wilder can't box. He basically is learning how to box. Wilder is a fighter. He doesn't have to footwork or technique to beat Mike Tyson. Watch a prime Mike Tyson foot and head work. Wilder wouldn't be able to effectively land anything. Look at Wilder's last fight vs. Fury. Fury has far superior head movement and Wilder couldn't land anything. Against a shorter Tyson Wilder would leave himself wide open and he'd crush Wilder.

He had a nice mix of fear / hate / motivation / dedication that nobody really wishes for, but thanks to that he was the best ( i mean being bullied and when cus died for example or when his sister died, that shit sets u on fire if it doesn't break you down ) + genetic freak and probably steroids but whatever, he's the war god in my eyes, biggest fan of mike

    • @tonyb9735
      @tonyb9735 5 лет назад +25

      Tyson is extremely underrated as a *boxer*, he had great head movement and in his prime was extremely adept at slipping the jab. He had no problem with taller guys, he was able to slip the jab, step in, and unload massive uppercuts that came from his boots.
      After Cus died Tyson went downhill rapidly and particularly after he came out of prison. He retained most of his hand speed and power but his movement was never the same again. From then onwards yes he struggled to get past the big guys, by the time he fought, say Lewis, he was a shadow of his best self. Against Lewis he was so slow he looked like he was on mogadon.

      What nonsense, Before losing to Buster Douglas Tyson fought and beat the following guys;
      Alfonso Ratliff held the Lineal and WBC cruiserweight titles,
      Trevor Berbick won the WBC heavyweight title in 1986
      James "Bonecrusher" Smith held the WBA heavyweight title from 1986 to 1987
      Pinklon Thomas held the WBC heavyweight title from 1984 to 1986
      Tony Craig Tucker won the IBF heavyweight title in 1987
      Tyrell Biggs won a gold medal at the 1984 Summer Olympics and gold at the 1982 World Championships both in the super heavyweight division.
      That's 6 world champions and an Olympic gold medallist. I don't know what your definition of elite is.
      As to whether he could have out-boxed Holyfield or Lewis; the truth is we'll never know. What I do know is that he is very underrated as a boxer and, at his best, I believe that he stood every chance of beating them.

    When you look at Tyson from 85-90, he was so fast, explosive (throwing 6-7 punch combinations), his head movement was impeccable. When you compare this Tyson with Tyson later when he fought Lennox and Holyfield, he wasn’t the same. He was slower, less explosive, & didn’t utilize his famous Peak-a-boo stance as much. Just go and compare the fights.

Both athletes went through serious decline not all that long into their careers, and it forever tarnished the image and abilities of incredible athletes who were superb in their primes.

      And you also forgets that when he faced Holyfield Holy was also way out of prime,he was clearly slower and had been through wars with Bowe and struggled with Czys.
      Tyson was world champ and been knocking out the same guys he did before jail and he was 25 to 1 with good reasons,Tysons camp saw Holy as washed up,thats why they signed the fight,,dont forget that.
      IF they met earlier it would have been another match,who knows?, but in the way Holyfield took what Tyson had and demolished him it tells me that Holyfield had beaten him anytime they met,he was just to good for him.

    Tyson was possibly the most powerful swarmer there's ever been. Fast twitch/dense muscle for explosive PSI. Mix that with a furious mental state and it was brutality no one could match. Additionally his lower center of balance kept him quick and his thick build made him hard to knock down. The only attribute he lacked was reach but he compensated by getting in quickly.

      @Astheniumn 4 года назад +2

      Also I do think that many of those legends, had they started in today's era, would probably do really well and maybe be the best in today's era. Same for other sports.
      However as time progresses, a better understanding of the sport becomes mainstream as well as an increase in popularity. This means stronger competition, not just in terms of of practiced skill and knowledge, but genetics such as size.
      Take the sprinting comparison. If he were within one stride of Bolt, some of that difference could be attributed to genetics and knowledge. Maybe the genetics would actually be on Owens' side assuming things like PEDs were kept constant. But that little stride is the 1% that it takes to beat someone else, and in boxing, the level of complexity in skills is probably makes that difference between generations far greater.

Theres something about that section where he's talking about Archie Moore using the philly shell cross guard and shoulder roll defense, that line where he says "It makes you wonder where these guys learned to fight like that in the first place". For some reason that line stuck with me and it made me realize just how much more evolution there is to be had in fighting. Something about the idea of an average joe who just happens to get in enough scraps to develop his own unique styles and techniques that other people would never even think of, it just gets me fired up.

    Great video, what let’s modern day fighters down especially the heavy weights is that they don’t fight often enough. In fact many champions over the last 20 years have made careers out of dodging other fighters, Ali, Leonard, Robinson,Tyson fought everyone and as such there overall skill level was far superior, the current heavyweight division could get to that level again over the next 10 years but only if the top guys actualły fight each other

    Even before watching the video. I think Mike Tyson was really ambitious man and he would just adapt to new strats if needed, but I think his old knock out tactic is not based on just movement, its based on his great reflexes and I think it would work nowadays too. He is really fast and more tactical person, than all of us can imagine. I would say that " I want punch as hard as I can, I will knock everyone down" I think it was just a act that he knows its gonna scare most boxers and get him a mental advantage over them.

They are far superior in almost all aspect size speed strength power fitness and technique. Modern techniques training and supplements mean the athletes are just better in almost every way. Sports evolve as people try and get better. If u say Ali and Tyson could handle the modern day heavy weights your fooling yourself for the sake of nostalgia.
