I see that point, but I just cannot agree. It was / is there with Tyson, and of course King saw it and used it. But, its the anger and hunger that made him. When the hunger went against Douglas, there wasnt much substance ?
King is just as hard as Tyson in life skills, if not harder.

Yes.Very shrewd business man Don King. He aint nobodys fool.

Think Cus was only person Tyson ever really trusted in his whole lifetime.
 
Hardest hitting heavyweight was Earnie Shavers! What a gentlman he is by the way!

Didn`t He end up working on the door in town? not even shi*ting you. *Rat and parrot or somewhere. think he was going out with scouse bird at the time. it was in the Echo few years ago.

*just seen earlier posts saying yates.

America — Former undisputed heavyweight boxing champion of the world Mike Tyson is said to be “feeling fine†after undergoing successful gender reassignment surgery at a clinic near Beverley Hills.

Report by NewsBiscuit

Once known as “The Baddest Man on the Planetâ€, the boxer said having his first menstrual cycle “would be a dream come trueâ€, and that from now on he would be known as Michelle.

“Some people might think it strange that I’m now a woman,†said Tyson, who underwent complete facial feminisation, orbital bone contouring and nasal surgery in an operation lasting over 16 hours.

‘But even at the height of my career, when pound for pound I was regarded as the best fighter in the world, I never lost touch with my feminine side and knew that one day I would grow breasts and have a vagina.’

Iron Mike was given the all-clear for gender reassignment surgery following a successful course in hormone replacement therapy which, in his autobiography, the boxer blamed for his 1996 defeat at the hands of Evander Holyfield.

Although at the time Tyson insisted he was fit enough to carry on with the fight, referee Mitch Halpern stopped the bout in the 11th round saying Tyson looked flushed, was sweating profusely and appeared to be lactating heavily from his left breast.

Tyson, said he hoped being female would finally convince the American people that his “bad-boy†days were over and he had turned over a new leaf.

Bound to be a load of crap but made me laugh.

Met him a few times in the boxing clubs and various do's, you wont meet a nicer fella, he married a local girl, and moved to the Wirral, even trained in a few local gyms.

even a few rumours Tyson's people turned down a fight with a 42 year old shavers

Yes seems like a good guy. wouldn`t suprise me if they turned down a fight with him if he was getting beaten by people like Danny williams.
 
Yeah hes good fun, the rumour I heard about was when Shavers was 42, so would have been around 1988 or something like that, couldn't say how much truth is in though
oh! i thought you meant a lot later on after he got out of jail. Well it could be true a)because shavers was a big hitter.or b ) because they thought there was more money against other fighters. would have liked to see it though.
