What year was Mike Tyson's peak?
« on: March 07, 2015, 07:05:24 AM »
A 19 year old Tyson appears twice as fast as when fought Holyfield  ???



of course, fighting a giant fat dude can make you look quick by default, but even in that fight Mike was not just fast, he was fast as fuck.

1986,87 and 88.  The Robin Givens thing is what screwed him up initially.  Getting in with Don King only exacerbated the problem and led to Tokyo in 1990.

Lol at the retards who think that the 1995, 1996 post-prison Mike Tyson was anywhere near the fighter he was during this time period.

1986 - 88 were Tyson's peak years, so 20 - 22 years old.

Tyson himself thought these were his best fights from his own perspective -
