Right! They have never ever seen him box nor did it sound like they had ever seen boxing at or atleast very little, and they still know the name. That’s legendary status
That's the problem with knocking out a long list of bums +an ancient Larry Holmes, it makes him look better then he is. He is not even top 5 in his century
@Michael Mahogany hes not even the best of his era and therefore he aint the best in history. He lost to holyfield twice and he didnt even have that good of a record. Lewis also beat both of them which would in theory make him „greater“, which is why you will find him further up in the only legit rankings there are.
@@bigd5899 Mike's record was 49-3 with 43 knockouts to Lenox Lewis 39-2-1 with 30 knockouts so okay he was beat by Lewis and Holyfield who he fought three times the third fight was a disqualification because of the ear biting,even after that his record would still be better than Holyfield and Lewis
@@dsmkrotj4990 nobody gives a f about the numbers, foreman has 68 ko‘s and he was never up for debate. The names are important, tyson lost to douglas holyfield and lennox, lennox beat them all and even picked up a juicy tko against vitali klitschko before retiring. Thats great. Losing to all of your rivals despite having more talent is not.
I would like to see Iron Mike reacting to these guys reacting to this. The fact that his name is almost universal, his power and infamy are known; and the speed that he had is amazing. I think he would get a kick out watching people react to his knockouts.
@@TechnoMinarchist yes he was the most deadliest man to walk the earth, he could break ice blocks with bare hands and was so fast not even Mike Tyson dad would ever stand him
Would have been an interesting match. Bruce is a legend but so is Mike. I feel like Bruce Lee would have come in with a flying kick and got knocked out before he hit the ground. I could be wrong. Too bad we’ll never know.
Once in a lifetime talent. His speed, power and precision were unmatched in his day. People who interviewed him said the aura he gave off made it feel like they were sitting next to a lion
And one most understand, that for them a leopard is not just some animal they saw on planet earth with David Attenborough. They are very real and dangerous to them, some leopards are man-eaters and all of them are seriously dangerous.
@@Trends_with_benefits... I overstand that energy. I use to get excited after watching karate movies. It always ended with my older brother kicking my ass.😂🥊🥋🩹
"It looks like a leopard is hunting". Spot on comment goes to the elderly gentleman!!! Tyson even paced back and forth across his side of the ring, waiting and stalking and plotting, as his opponents walked to the ring.
Love how that old guy was genuinely enjoying himself. I think we found a new boxing fan. Always good to have great fans. Boxing really transcends race and culture to bring all of us together.
@Eric CPOP Really dude? Have some respect!! I find it very disrespectful that you referred to Babu as "this old guy". You are going to be OLD one day mate, how would you feel if some young dickhead like yourself, referred to you as "some old guy" to everyone in the World??
@@aryansigrid Really dude? Relax. Don’t be a snowflake. When you’re an old guy are you going be offended at being called an old guy even though you are an old guy? Everything said in that post was with reverence.
Not just boxing fighting in general if you wver notice who comes to watch a basketball game at school maybe like 40 and then who comes to watch a fight at school literally everyone so it just shows that fighting is all engrained to be entertaining in our human nature
@@aryansigrid I don’t know where OP is from but his comment has no negative connotation, at least in American usage. He meant no disrespect. He’s just clarifying which individual from the video he’s referring to.
He was quoting Joe Louis who said "Everyone has a plan until they get hit". Tyson was a student of the sport and thought very highly of Louis among others that came before him.
I love how they've shown these people everything from the microscopic world to the infinite universe, and felt Tyson beating the shit out of people was also worthy of showing. And I absolutely agree.
They don't know that it's a compilation of Tyson's knockouts. They're basically like kids when they discover or watch something new they're just excited
Some of these fights were after he had served his prison sentence. I am glad that he is still alive, fit, and doing well with his endeavors! I think he is on Broadway doing a one man show.
@@lydiaedwards8100 yeah he just got done that. He has a podcast now called "Hotboxing" he just did a set with Bill Burr and Jeremy Piven (Really funny and introspective, you should give it a listen). Apparently Tyson and Piven are friends. I think he also started a CBD company somewhere in Oregon. He's finally found Peace and a good woman.
Years ago my family paid to see a much anticipated Tyson fight on TV. We all had our snacks and were just sitting down comfortably expecting to watch an hour or more of boxing. We had barely sat down and the fight was all over in one punch. 😟😟😟💸💸💸
Same! My brother and his friend saved up a bunch of money to pay for the pay per view. They were so angry that it was over in one punch after they'd paid. 😂
We did the same thing!!! Tyson - Spinks! 91 seconds!!! 4 couples pitched in! Pay-per-View like $50!!! Snacks! Drinks! Sat down and BAM!!!! Over! Funny now. 😡😂😂
Same for me. My brother and friends chipped in. We had pay per view ordered pizza. It was over in less than a minute. We were all just sitting there saying now what.
In his early disciplined years Tyson was the greatest boxer of all time . He was just so fast , so powerful , so accurate , and had a iron chin to boot . I had never seen anyone close to his caliber , I probably won't ever see anybody that good again in my lifetime . Unfortunately he only accomplished a fraction of what he was capable of .
What do you mean by "he only accomplished a fraction of what he was capable of"? I'm trying to Google what brought him down but I'm having a hard time. Did he start doing drugs? Partying? Getting too cocky? Not caring? What happened to him? 🤷♀️ Thanks in advance to anyone who may answer this.
@@0r0r0 He started partying with chicks , went to jail , got in with different trainers and promoters . He actually fought a bout after contracting gonorrhea . He just didn't have the focus on his career that he once had.
Roro, he got slowed down by all of the above. But most of all he was devestated by the untimely demise of his legendary coach, who was like a father figure to him he never wanted to disappoint. After that, his performance gradually slowed down and he picked up a lot of self destructive vices.
Just seeing all of his opponents tower over him at the beginning of each match. Then seeing them being chopped down and falling like trees is so satisfying. No one could ever amount to such power.
I was in my twenties when Tyson was fighting. People were getting a bit pissed off though they would go to a fight look down at their seat, sit down, look up and the fight was over. 😂
I used to love watching iron Mike. Must have only been about 12 years old and my dad would let me stay up late to watch the fights with him. He was a wrecking ball with a deadly punch 🥊
Dude. You couldn't go to the bathroom to take a piss when his fight was on. By the time you flushed it would probably be over. There was a palpable sense of destiny every time he stepped into the ring. That's why when he lost to Buster Douglas it was a shock. It was like finding out about santa or the tooth fairy. A fundamental truth about your childhood was proven wrong.
Seeing this video and realizing how good he was at such a young age helps me to understand why he seemed to me to have such a big ego. I appreciate his talent more now.
Naah.. You need to be a little more aware of the technical side of boxing to appreciate Ali's matches. First time viewers tend to forget that he's a heayweight, because he would move too fast for one. Also, Ali lived in the age of boxing greats. He was more closely matched (only in comparison) to his opponents in terms of skill than Tyson was to his opponents. To a casual viewer, Ali's fights won't be as dramatic as Tyson's.
@@ShirazHansen Tyson: Knockout King. Ali: Boxing King. They should have watched Ali working his opponents during the rounds, it's just as impressive :) I think we agree.
This is probably one of my favourite videos in this series. 🥰 I Love these three boys, keep their videos coming. Babu always crack me up and the other guys are very sweet and respectful, they are also quite funny 😆
Mike has now officially been adopted,”Mason.” 😂😂😂 This has blessed my day. I was so sad. Watching the young men so happy to see the champ is very enjoyable as well.
again i really cant thank the creator or the on camera personality's enough for their videos, they make me so happy whilst reminding me of the amazing beauty of the world around me i sometimes overlook. thank you all.
This is Mike Tyson back in the day, you should show them how terrifying he is still today at his age. They also mentioned the fighting they have around them use hands and feet, they should see MMA fights.
Really.. huh I guess you don't keep getting your face head.. brains bashed in for up to 12 rounds in MMA.. I'm addicted to MMA after watching that you can't go back to watching just boxing..
i have seen Mike Tyson knockouts so many times in the past. in this video i was looking at Mikes knockouts again without looking at the villagers reactions. so i had to play the vid again to look at the villagers reactions. for me Mike Tyson was the greatest heavy weight of all time, GOAT.
look how excited and awestruck they are watching decades later....Imagine, how they would feel, if they saw him in real time and pay per view. It was the best of times for me as a teen and young adult. Once in a lifetime to see him...I suppose those who saw, ali can say the same.
I want express my appreciation for taking the time to establish the panel as intelligent people in their own right who are about to watch videos of something new(ish) to them. Rather then trying to make fools of people with sharply cut edits. Good work.
I'd like to see how they interact with him now that they've seen him. Mike is a very humble and emotional person, a gift, and I would very much like them to experience that side of him too. I wish everyone could get together on Hotboxin with him lol.
Loving these tribal reaction vids at the mo. Amazing to see the reactions of these guys to stuff we just totally take for granted or worse don't even acknowledge anymore 😁
I want to see Mike Tyson react to watching these villagers watch him. I especially enjoy watching the old man’s reaction. I think Mike would love it too.
This is excellent. I hope Tyson gets to see this video. What a legend. I love the contrast of introducing such an amazing American to citizens of some place far away.
Good analysis by the three experts. Someone needs to show this to "Iron Mike". Lots of love to Babu for knowing "The Greatest", Muhammad Ali. I am sure he is looking down from heaven and smiling....😭 Greetings from Germany.
OMG "(Tyson) Attacks like a leopard" the best definition!!! That old villager man is so WISE! I like him so much by his deductions and way of thinking!
I was cracking up when Babu said he broke his face!😂 Raeen was happy 😊 I was like yeah Sarru was on the fence until almost the end, he came around. Mike Tyson was a beast had to fight like that because of that high pitched voice!🤣😂😅 He learned early. My favorite Guys. May God continue his blessings! Babu was correct with his Leopard 🐆 statement.
Seeing their reaction almost takes you back to the first time you saw it. Imagine if the one man he could trust stayed with us longer, who knows how good he could have been. I wish we had video of Tyson punching Don King.
This is my favorite channel. People I guess don’t know Mile Tyson was Boxing at 15 as an adult against adults as he lied about his age. Tyson was hypnotized as a thirteen year old on and told that he was a world champion built to destroy. Tyson drove around Vegas in a convertible with 2 TIGERS as passengers. When you’re a Tiger, you listen to Mike Tyson.
