You don't know much about boxing. He would of bullied a much shorter tyson. Anyone who stood up to him and had some strenght and power was a huge threat to tyson. Look what Holyfield did to him. Foreman would of caught him with an uppercut.

remember tyson couldnt get rid of holyfield...so a guy with a great chin could hang in there with tyson.  that being said...tyson is very similar to frazier with short fast hooks.  tyson was also an accumulation puncher against the best guys...got lower rated fighters out with one punch.



if tyson didnt get foreman out the ring in 2-3...he'd join the frazier club.

Why would a Real athlete that makes real big money waste his time with MMA or UFC, that what they do after they are finished and out of their prime, they figure why not make a couple hundred bucks in this bullshiet they call MMA, i just mentioned to you a scripted fake wrestler named brock lesnar won the UFC title in what a year? you will prob roll around with sweaty balls in your face for 20yrs and make $300 your whole life never fuuck a groupie never be mentioned in a real sporting media, but im sure you do it all for the love of wearing a tapout shirt and affliction shirt to the ring

You don't know the first thing about MMA, that's why you post nonsense.  Lesnar was the NCAA national wrestling champion in 2000.  He is hardly finished and past his prime.  Lesnar made $400,000 for his last fight not counting any promotional money or incentive money.  I don't wear affliction or tapout shirts.  I told you before, that was just some wanna be that stole your "lady", not a real fighter.  A real fighter would have made you watch while he ass-focked her, just to see you cry like the bitch that you are.  I don't know why you are so hurt.  Fat girls are everywhere.

Oh?  Just to inform a young, feeble, mind:  Mike Tyson was one of the most dominate heavyweight boxers of all time.  He KO'd short guys, big guys, TALLER GUYS, guys with great uppercuts.  You name it, Tyson KO'd them.

Has your boy Foreman done the same?  Foreman was a great opponent and boxer, but Iron Mike was a legend.

Don't tell me I don't know much about boxing.

So Foreman isn't a legend. Tyson faught cans his entire career. What happened when he faced good oppenets who weren't bullied or scared of him. He gives up and quits.

Young grasshopper:  it's "fought" and "opponents".

Realize you contradict yourself in your statement.  First "Tysons faught cans his entire career"... then you go on to talk about his "good opponents".  Well, did he always fight cans, or did he fight good fighters?  Confused Makaveli?!

He had something like 60 fights. More than half of those were cans fed to him. He had the heart of a coward and bully. Look how he bit Holyfields ear. It wasn't because he was crazy, he wanted out of that fight because he was getting the shit beat out of him.

It wasn't because he is crazy or because he wanted out of the fight.  He was frustrated by the fact that he couldn't land shots.

Because Tyson was so ruthless and savage in the ring and so dominate when he first came out (a few years really) there is this mythical quality about him. He's human like everybody else and taken in totality wasn't the dominate heavy weight that he was portrayed to be. He could have been if Cus D'Amato lived longer but after getting knocked out by Buster Douglas while only 24 years old, in his pristine physical prime, he was never the same.

Scroll to about 1:24 to see the legend go down. I remember it just like it was yesterday. I remember where I was, who I was watching the fight with, and the utter shock we all felt watching the seemingly indestructible crumble to the mat. It reminded me how we are all human and some day and at some point we all go down.

Evander is considered one of the dirtiest fighters of that era.

hey guys, just interested about this guy.Hes coming to do a seminar in the Martial arts club i attend in Scotland.Ive heard of and saw him in action a few times but id be lying if i said i knew loads about him.Would it be worth paying to go and see this guy in person is what im asking anyone whos big on MMA etc??

I don't know. It's really up to you to decide. Do you think your money could be better spent elseware? Only you can decide. Don't be a bitch and rely on others opinion.

I hope I have helped in this matter.

Its not a case of money really.Just as a keen martial artist i was interested if it would be worthwhile going to see what this guys got to say.Im not that familiar with his history in MMA so i thought id ask the folks on here, is that ok ? ;D
