I am not going to watch this live but will record, if you like boxing years ago you know he was a beast till he wasn't  plus all the weird crap he did during that time frame might be ok

 
He was a bad ass.  You kids outta watch one of his documentaries if your into boxing.  Loved those Saturday night quick fights

 
He put the fear of God in Every guy he drilled. Until Buster Douglas said....No Bueno Mike! Peace

I was at the San Diego Supercross when they announced it over the loudspeaker that Tyson got beat by Buster Douglas. The crowd went crazy

 
I saw a documentary on him not too long ago & he was just brutal....

 
Incredible talent as a Boxer in his prime, unbeatable, brutal.

I'll watch anything about him. My kids were awestruck when I showed them his highlight clips... :boxing2:

 
Roy Jones Jr. was a great watch back in the day until he thought fight fans didn't like his early knockouts and without a lot quality competition he started dragging out his fights, but in his prime he was the man.

The guy was a beast no doubt about it. The Beer and Peanut guy's in the arena's hated him though. When Tyson fought you made sure you had gone to the bathroom, had your beer and were paying attention before the bell rang for round 1. 

If I remember he was one of the first boxers who had the Pay Per View fights.  Want to say they were like $150.00 for the fight and the fights lasted about 6 seconds.

Could you imagine him starting now with the woke cancel mob. The interview he gave where he said his best right hook he ever landed was on his Ex Wife Robin Givens he would of never made it to the rape charge after that.

We paid to watch the Sugar Ray and Holmes fights back in the early 1980's as well, can't remember how but they weren't free by any means.  I miss those great boxing match ups.  Tyson was a beast.

 
I can remember watching him fight when I was a kid and my dad being pissed off about paying big bucks for 20 seconds.

Great memories, loved watching his fights.

PS, my dad still kept buying them.

 
I watched a few of them scrambled on the Pay-Per-View channel.  Audio always came in fine.  I think one of them was the Buster Douglas fight.

Watched lots of scrambled WWF stuff back then too!  

 
What a machine. Grew up watching him as my parents and their friends would never miss a fight. He never looked worked, always seemed in control. Hes got his fair share of scandals and controversy, but right or wrong those things seem to fade quicker than his legacy as a boxer. Crazy stuff

 
When is his documentary? Peace
