The late eighties heavyweight class was really piss poor. Michael Spinks won the title for gosh sakes, a pumped up light heavy. The formula for beating Tyson has always been the same, a heavy with good footwork, a stiff jab, and stamina to withstand the initial assault. Not to mention when Tyson left Rooney, he became a head hunter. He no longer bobbed and weaved using his peakaboo defense to penetrate taller fighters outer layer of defense and ATTACK THE BODY. This is what normally brings fighters hands down. He wanted the quick one punch KO and this ended up being his downfall. (Plus cocaine, Don King, his penchant for women)
