I go for a drink at the Landmark hotel in central London and who's sitting there with a coffee but Don king! I had to ask him whether the stories of Tyson being afraid of foreman! He said its total bullshit. Tyson wasn't afraid at all, if anything Tyson didn't have enough fear or respect of foreman. Thinking he d Ko him easy. King told me George was to blame for the fight not happening as he thought of it as GEORGE FOREMAN V Mike Tyson. Whereas it was really MIKE TYSON V George foreman. George priced himself out of the fight think ing he should have got as much if not even more than Tyson for the fight.

I'd be curious to hear his thoughts on his portrayal in Rocky V
-
Great story. I never heard the idea it was Foreman pricing himself out of the fight.
-
There s been rumours for 26 years Tyson screamed I ain't fighting that animal. King said that never happened.
Hell of a personality by the way. Hope I have that much energy in my 80s!
-
No way Tyson would've feared an old man like Foreman. Would've been great while it lasted.
-
As if big George was indestructible, big puncher, but slow... Young mike would have blasted him out
-
LOL, fear ::) ::)
You're totally "newb" if you think Elite professional fighters "Fear" anybody in competition,
I don't get it when ppl(mostly americans) ask fighters: "Do you fear him/her?"
When you're sparring daily, training hard everyday, the last thing you'll be thinking is fear of another man.

The BS stories back in about 1990 where that Tyson feared Foreman. I never believed it myself but a lot of people did including many on this site.

You should have asked Don King to comb his fucking hair.

Convicted Murderer Don King should speak at a Trump rally. Maybe even drop a racial slur. Then Trump would laugh about it.
That'd be some shit.
-
Psst, you should have posted this story with your Darren Avery account.

Maybe it'd be a nervous laugh. After all, he is a cracker in a church full of brews.

Don King is an evil MFer.

Fear?
Tyson was a lot of things, but he sure as hell wasnt a coward.
