THE FALL OF A BADASS!!
In the hey day of Mike Tyson he was the baddest MFer around. He would step into the ring with his black boxer trunks, black shoes, and a scowl that would make men weep. Which is exactly what he did, during those times if you looked at his opponent when he stepped into the ring they were scared you could see it in their eyes, as if they were saying" Oh shit this brother is going to beat the hell outta me!" After Buster Douglas Mike lost some of that fear factor. After the rape conviction his popularity slid. He was no longer an ass kicking man he was a shameless opportunist taking advantage of women. His management slid during this time too, the snake oil salesman knew they could always sell a fight with Tyson in the headlines. They made money never mind the fact that Tyson continually talked about how people abused him for his name,there was alot of money to be made on TYSON. He talked to us about his problems as his rank slid to the muddy bottom of the well. He told us he was'nt the fighter he used to be and if you watched his fights you could tell. Still he fought on he believed in the people who trained and promoted him, so did we. His fights turned out to be 99% hype and 1% boxing. He was done along time ago he could'nt believe it and neither could we. But tonight he got knocked out in the sixth round by a tomato can,something that never should have happened.Tyson was a bulldozer in the ring , grace,skill and destuction all wrapped into one ruined by the leeches who glommed onto him in the early years. They got fat and lazy in the later years and did not attend to a guy who clearly knew what his problems were and asked for help. They did not care,his name was enough and hence a great boxer a total badass got knocked out tonight by a boxer who could'nt hold Tyson's jock strap. Shame on these people they ruined a king amongst mere mortals.
