@@flipflop4396Really? At his peak he was maybe more infamous than famous and by many disliked. Even though I always was a Tyson fan I loved the beating Douglas gave him. It was good for him, in the long run it would make him a better person. These days Tyson is also because of the internet, that didn't exist when he was at his peak, more popular than ever.
@@Aristotelezz actually the opposite happened, Mike in early 90s after Buster fight behaved like whole world was against him, especially white people, he didnt took any critisism, yet behaved pretty reckless and cocky outside of the ring...
I'd argue that hes even more famous right now because of his weird personality and lisp and that has he remained the same since back then. He was a worthy successor of Muhammad Ali tbh.
@ericamezcua1109 overrated? Youngest Champ in history. Consolidated all titles . No one that he beat no longer constitute as elite because he made them look normal . He got beat by a Roided up Holyfield- a fluke with Douglas and he was way past prime with Lewis. Lewis never would have beaten Tyson in 88. Hell, Tyson already consolidated the belts and Lewis haven't even been to the Olympics.
@@daveyboy_Yoo bro understand it’s both those things.. yea his achievements were amazing but he didn’t beat anyone. And Holyfield was considered washed by the time he fought Tyson then magically he’s a roidedup Superman. He could of fought Lennox in 96 but he straight up ducked him. Tyson couldn’t beat his all time great peers
That one buffoon really annoyed me talking about "only black men can teach Mike how to be a man". What a moron, Cus D'Amato was doing an outstanding job teaching Tyson how to be a respectable person and would have continued to do so if he hadn't died sadly. Kevin Rooney also did a great job of handling Tyson and had a close older brother like relationship with Mike. Skin color has nothing to do with being a father figure
Believe it or not the idiot had a valid point but he took it out of context..The fact that cust and Jimmy Jacubs was doing a good job but it wasn't enough time.. the right black man is better equipped to to the mike in the ways of America but they have to be the type of black man that has character and integrity like cus and Jimmy.... Don King was one of the worst things that happened to him about th🎉at time.... The blessing for Mike today was meeting his current wife and the type of character she had brought the best out of mike
great champion and poor management, after his original Cus d'Amato crew of Jimmy Jacobs Bill Cayton and trainer Kevin Rooney were replaced enter Don King that was the beginning of the end for Mike Tyson.
Love These Videos Mate💯👊🏻🔥🏅🏆🏅🔥👊🏾💯TYSON Is A Once In A Lifetime Athlete An Fighter,He Could Av Been The Best Ever,An Between 85-89 He Was Unbeatable An Would Of Beat Any Heavyweight From Any Era💯👊🏾🔥🏅🏆🏅🔥👊🏾💯
Mike never raped that girl if you ever take the time to analyze the case in the details, revolving around that case they convicted another innocent black man. Mike Tyson may never have lived up to the expectations during his whole career, but to make it in life from nothing to something given his circumstances, he’s a legend in my book. God bless.
Well, take an evil wife, a thief and manipulative "King", then you get one of the greatest fighter going down the drain...So sad and unfair for iron Mike. I hope he's at peace and happy now.
I know a lot of boxers ruined their career but in the modern era Mike has the best excuses and he proved it 1985-1991, it's not like his prime is untested. Frazier was blind in left eye and sam langford got blind in both eyes. Those excuses are better but Mike proved how great he was and is one of the best H2H fighters of all time. Prime Tyson was different and if you say otherwise you only like to whine because you don't want it to be true
14:40 is not true, don king was a negative role model to Tyson and cus was a white man crucial in developing mikes attributes. So your mindset is very narrow
