The only vicious thing this dude could have given Mike is a blowjob.

If these so-called bare-knuckle fighters were so good then why didn't they get a pair of gloves on and fight under Queensbury rules like proper boxers? His professional equivalent Henry Cooper would have given this bullshitting gypsy an absolute beating in the ringback in the 60's and 70's, never mind Tyson.

The reason they fought bareknuckle was because they organised random fights in pubs with other travellers and most of the time they cheated anyway, like the rest of their bretheren. There was nothing legit about them. It's all bollocks.

Gorman couldn't get a licence to box because he had convictions for assult and no other reason.Although Tyson would have beaten him,Gorman would have given him a decent fight.

Mike Tyson is the yardstick these wanna-be tough guys measure themselves by , everyone wants to claim they could beat Mike

Yes bare knuckle fighting was a scam. Big John Garvey and Milos fought to scam the promoter out of money. I think Charles had a hand in it as well.

Am I right if I say that bare knuckle fighting is for someone who doesn't have the endurance or power to fight with gloves on?

I bet he can tarmac a driveway quicker than Iron Mike, though.

I've read that book

Straight up Fairy tale.

Any average heavyweight would have knocked the **** outta this idiot.

He tells tales of taking on all comers with one hand while drunk.

Fighting outside of pubs to honor his family name.

Low level garbage
