The #1 Thing I Need To Do Before I Die Is See Mike Tyson’s One Man Show In Vegas
I’ve said this before but for my money the most entertaining/fascinating man of my lifetime is hands down Mike Tyson and it’s not even close. Maybe it’s because I grew up during his prime when he was literally the most famous and feared man on the planet. Maybe it’s because his downfall was so swift. Maybe it’s because he constantly seemed on the edge of insanity and still does even when he’s trying not to be insane. Whatever the case may be there is literally nothing he can do that wouldn’t interest me. So I don’t know how much tickets cost for this thing, but I am 100% flying out to Vegas to see this show. No way I can miss a 50 year storm like this.
Mike’s Greatest Quotes
If he had not lost his mind, he would have been the greatest fighter of all-time. He didn’t just win, he absolutely demolished anyone who stepped into the ring.
i was completely convinced that Mike would be dead or in jail at this point…good for him…
also, he was overrated as a fighter
I just hope he’s still on the Zoloft to keep from killing us all.
Tyson without Cus D’Amato’s guidance is a fucking train wreck.
Prez is an Iphone hater too i guess. Just like your boy Feitelberg.
@rp: How was he overrated?
look at who he fought…when he finally had someone push him around(Holyfield), he got the shit kicked out of him…I think Lewis and Bowe could have beaten him in his prime as well, Lewis never gets the credit he deserves, one of the great heavyweights
Probably right about Lewis, but like stro said he tore opponents up before he started to go crazy which his career went downhill and he got the shit kicked out of him. I wouldn’t go so far as to say he was overrated though.
@rp he fought Holyfield after 4 yrs in prison and out of shape. Watch the early fights, no one lasted more then 3 rds with him.
Now queue the music (just happens to be the funniest song ever) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBkw2vtW6AE
my thoughts exactly. LOVE tyson, and watching him as a kid is a vivid memory i’ll never forget. absolutely dominating in his prime. you can make arguments about someone being better, but at the end of the day i want to see a guy who swings with bad intentions every time and could literally take your head off your shoulders, i’m not looking to watch technical boxing, i want to see a slugfest.
just bought this t-shirt the other day, speaking of tyson. i’m like a kid on christmas eve waiting for it to get here. STUPID hot, am i right? one of the best boxers and and one of the best video games ever, all on one shirt…

“I’ll fuck you too. You love me” The guy supplied me with just as many laughable moments like that as he did oh shit moments watching him fucking brutalize people in the ring. He was kind of like a real life Mr. T prior to getting his ass kicked by Rocky. Just a scary man
not saying he wasn’t a great puncher and finisher, but i don’t think Tony Tubbs, Marvis Frazier, and an ancient Larry Holmes provided much of a challenge
Tysons the man, so true that when Cus died the trainwreck started, every cock a roacha in the fight game got their claws into him after that (why is that pos don king still alive)
To say he was overrated is ludicrous 50-6 with 44 ko’s, Tyson in his prime would have destroyed both Holyfield and Lewis, despite the size diff.
Deff the baddest man on the planet
^got beat by Kevin McBride
Don’t forget his memorable bout with Donovan “Razor” Ruddock. The hopes and dreams of all Canadian boxing fans were riding on Ruddock. Oh well, there is always Lennox Lewis. He will ALWAYS be a Canadian, right? Right? Lennox? Hey, where’d ya get that weird English accent?
Tyson was a fraud. Tyson should have been in the WWF. Paper champ, fought BUMMS. He ducked Holyfield for years. Name one fighter he beat that EVER beat anyone else half decent. Razor Ruddick? Please, Guy is a rapist and a fraud…Holyfield lit his ass up. twice. he lost to BUSTER DOUGLAS for christ sakes! Didnt just lose to him, GOT PUT OUT ON QUEER STREET!
