Yep. It's another reason I don't take Tyson Nuthuggers on YouTube that seriously because if you believe them, Tyson was the cleanest fighter of all mankind and he was getting bullied by that evil Evander Holyfield. Meanwhile, Tyson was throwning elbows and forearms like he was practicing for a Muay Thai fight.

He's a thug and has never been anything but. Even as a kid beating up old ladies...just a thug.

Mike is a strange dude… This kid is too young to have her first existential crisis!

Yeah, sorry Ace31. I just can't help myself when it comes to that guy.

I saw them all until Holyfield. That was the last time I quit watching them live. Mike is still the best boxer I have ever seen. Before he lost his mind biting ears and such, it was calculated pinpointed accuracy. Several people he fought said his hands were like bricks and they never fought anyone with remotely the strength in the punches. His private life went sideways before the Evander fight, he started dicking off, was not prepared, etc. Cus dying also had a major effect on him. They managed his bs until the Evander fight then it all went downhill. He could have easily been the greatest boxer of all time but like many, fucked it up himself. His reign up until that fight, never seen anything else like it. He was so got damn fast and hit so damn hard.

And I hope he knocks out this fucking idiot tomorrow night.

What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone

Tyson slapped Paul for stepping on his foot at the weigh-in. Let's see if he can keep his head tonight.

I agree on all counts. If Cus hadnt died he would have been the best boxer ever.

Did not realize they had 3 fights slated before Tyson & Paul.
Looks like it will be around 4 and a half hours.
Guess, I’ll watch it tomorrow at some point. Will have to keep off the internet.

What terrible commentating there with the conversation between Lewis and Holyfield.

What's with the anal bead necklace?

And Evander just staring off, lost in space

Apparently his earpiece was not working so he could not hear the other commentators.

What was up with Goyta dry humping Nunnes? I have not watched a boxing match since Tyson stopped fighting.
Is this a normal thing these days?

I’m starting to get major buffering, and I’m not running Wi-Fi, it’s a lan cable directly from the modem.
