Prime Mike was a mighty engine of rage and destruction. Even fighters who went and eventually lost to waited until he self destructed before fighting him.
And he was one of the best and fastest counterpunchers ever. That's something he got from Ali, wait till the other guy throws a punch and then attack the gap in his defense even before his punch finds his target. Young Mike was so damn quick.
He knocked Trevor Berwick out of the ring. He beat Michael Sphinx in 90 seconds to win the IBF heavyweight title. He had all three world titles by age 20. You had to be there. Not in person, but at the time. Watch the fights and look at his record to see. It won't take long.
Cuss was more than just a trainer or a manager he was his stepfather he adopted him Mike was with cuss from the time you think 13 yeah he's a member of the D'Amato family
What a time to be alive! To be able to watch the most feared boxer to ever step in the ring, do what he did best. THEN he transcended into one of the most kind humans on the planet! He really DOES have the soul of a king...

Have her watch some full fights because Tyson was an absolute machine. You could tell from opponents faces they were just getting taken apart from the inside by his body shots. A lot of times what looked like a laughing face from the opponent was just sheer pain. His style is incredible
I was 15 years old when Mike Tyson won WBC Heavyweight title in 1986 at the age of 20 years old. I'm typing this out before the actual reaction video begins..... and as you'll see, it wasn't just Tyson's quickness, but the fact he could rear back and throw a punch with such speed and velocity that it was absolutely devastating. His combination of a hook followed up a split second later by an uppercut was lethal. The man was a concussion causing machine in his prime.... but he always went over to his opponents afterwards to ensure they were okay. The Hollyfield incident kind of shocked everyone, as up until that point, he had never acted like that in the ring. His fall from grace kind of tarnished his legacy a bit, but pound for pound, no other heavyweight in history had his combination of power and velocity. Ali was quicker and faster than Tyson in his prime. Others have thrown harder punches..... but Tyson could land two punches within a second that would literally concuss his opponent and take him out of the fight. Seriously, when they started showing the fights on pay-per-view, most people I knew wouldn't even pay to see the fight, as most of them were over within minutes. It wasn't worth the money. The news would have the full fight as a highlight later that evening since it was over so quickly.
Tyson unlike Mayweather.....MIKE was a true champion. Didn't play any games. HE'D take on anyone. Hell he fought FAR more in one year than Mayweather had the balls to.
Absolutely love Mike always have always will. She's should see Mike Tyson beating the snot out of Mitch Green broke his orbital socket you are hard you have to punch somebody to break their orbital socket that's breaking the forehead the cheekbone all all of that yeah I don't know what possesses people to think that they should mess with professional athletes
By the time Tyson bit Holyfield, Mike was a shell of his former self. That was several years after Buster Douglas actually knocked him out...Buster was not a great boxer, good one but he would have been obliterated by Tyson a few years earlier. Tyson became undisciplined in and out of the ring after letting Rooney(Cus D'Amato's protege) go as his manager.
I’d argue any boxer that’s a title contender is a great fighter. Would KO 99.9 % people on the planet. He (Buster Douglas)was extra motivated by the death of his mother too.
Was livin in europe when he was in his prime... i was up at stupid o clock to watch him fight :) Floyd was nowhere near was Mike was in any sort of way lol
Mike Tyson had one of the crappiest life stories I've ever heard my entirety on this planet poor kid mother doing nasty things in the bed that he's sleeping in people bringing teenagers bringing other kids to play it a little 8/9 year old Mike Tyson
Holyfeild hit Tyson with more than 30 headbutts in that fight and the ref didn't call any of them don king bought the ref off holyfeild got what he deserved
He was known for his knockouts but he really couldn't box example like surger ray Leonard but you're better half is right you do look like him lol hey she's giving you a a compliment 👍
A lot of boxers from that time, before, and now, deal with brain damage/CTE, but a lot of it actually comes from training rather than the fight itself, it’s more about HOW MANY times you get hit good, how many times your brain smacks around in your head over the years, and ofc how hard, but less so. even head gear doesn’t protect from this much at all, the head gear mostly protects from cuts
The main thing to know about Tyson is that he is a convicted rapist. The conviction rate for rape is extremely low so the evidence must have been overwhelming. Despite this conviction, he seems to have got away with it in the court of public opinion. His fans don't seem to care.
As an Atlanta native I'm proud to say Holyfield owned Tyson both fights. And before anyone says "Tyson wasn't in his prime" because people always say and think that, yes he was Holyfield is a year older than Tyson
The most feared man on the planet in his prime. Tyson is the 🐐
He is not the goat. But he had the potential for it.
who are you @@Josh77600
Prime Mike was a mighty engine of rage and destruction. Even fighters who went and eventually lost to waited until he self destructed before fighting him.
The death of Cus and Tyson leaving the younger Damato's tutelage was the beginning of the end. Another victim of Don King.
Young Mike Tyson, before Don King got his hands on him, was like a train running over people.
Tyson was a beast.
*Is
Tyson landed 22 knockouts in the first round. Part of what made him so special was how fast he put people away.
Mike had this brutal double body punch....one to the liver, then a swift uppercut with the same hand.
Signature combo 🔥
And he was one of the best and fastest counterpunchers ever. That's something he got from Ali, wait till the other guy throws a punch and then attack the gap in his defense even before his punch finds his target. Young Mike was so damn quick.
You mean Cus, not Gus. Cus D'Amato.
Tyson punched with his whole body.
He knocked Trevor Berwick out of the ring. He beat Michael Sphinx in 90 seconds to win the IBF heavyweight title. He had all three world titles by age 20. You had to be there. Not in person, but at the time. Watch the fights and look at his record to see. It won't take long.
Pound 4 pound the best fighter. Knocked out opponents within seconds
Beat up guys twice his size
Mike was 200 pounds at 13
Kratos is literally mike tyson hes a game copy of him
Cuss was more than just a trainer or a manager he was his stepfather he adopted him Mike was with cuss from the time you think 13 yeah he's a member of the D'Amato family
What a time to be alive! To be able to watch the most feared boxer to ever step in the ring, do what he did best. THEN he transcended into one of the most kind humans on the planet! He really DOES have the soul of a king...
I really wish we could had seen Tyson vs Riddick Bowe. Thats the greatest match that never happened…
Bowe only fought guys he thought he could beat. He would never get in the ring with Tyson or Lenox.

Ali & Tyson! My favorite dynamic duo! ♥
I spent an entire day on you tube learning about tyson. Im a 45 year old white woman who doesnt watch boxing 😂 i love mike!
Tyson the kid dynamite 💪💥
Mike Tyson is the GOAT 🐐

Just a bit different then Mayweather.

I love this reaction! Keep it up.
Julio Caesar Chavez was the greatest lightweight fighter ever beat the crap out of Floyd mayweathers uncle was 89-0 till his first loss

His mom died right before the fight

@@PTLpdb So 8 million people could ko them?
The fight in which he got floored was vs James "Buster" Douglas in Tokyo.
What about Evander "Real Deal" Holyfield (Greatest Heart in History)
Was livin in europe when he was in his prime... i was up at stupid o clock to watch him fight :) Floyd was nowhere near was Mike was in any sort of way lol

Tasha you had me rollin 😂😂😂. And you're right many of these guys do end up with brain damage.
Did they ever go to the third row and pick up that white dude head
Lol maybe looks a little like Mayweather. I'd say he looks more like Bob Sapp 😂
Tasha are you from North Carolina. You look like someone I went to school with.
You should show Tasha Eric “Butterbean“ Esch
you're one lucky man. your wife looks so wholesome and adorable. you're both meant for each other.
Poor tasha been tramatized. More boxing and Iron mike story reaction
mike throwing atom bombs ..... not punches....
Do Roy Jones Junior, a candidate for the GOAT.
In the 80s a no lose bet was a Mike Tyson fight. It wasn't if he was going to win, it was what round he was going to knock you out.
He was known for his knockouts but he really couldn't box example like surger ray Leonard but you're better half is right you do look like him lol hey she's giving you a a compliment 👍
tyson was /is the ultimate and baddest man. Nobody fears Floyd
I would have loved to see Mike Tyson v rocky marciano
Looking like Floyd... yeah if he liked sandwiches
I watched the Care Bears and Mike Tyson!😂
Search for Tyson and the Toad. A different side of Mike.
A iron boat anchor moving at light speed.
Oh, I’m definitely here for this.
Y’all got me rollin lmao ✊🏿

Good video!

Mike was, and still is, a fricking monster. People still are afraid of him
His best stories are when he talks about beating up jkids his age and then theyd go get their dads and hed fight these kids dads lmao..
The move at 4:06 is one of the most beautiful moves in boxing history
Tyson was not like Mayweather that peaks his opponent
JESUS CHRIST IS THE MOST FEAR MAN
JESUS CHRIST IS THE TRUE LIVING ALMIGHTY GOD AMEN WHOOO ✝️❤️🙏🗡️👑
