A big left hook by Tyson misses and Tillman touches him with his right hand. Tillman not really throwing punches but rather just touching him to score.

Tillman throws his first meaningful punch of the fight that lands flush on Tyson's chin but that is a big misatke and Tyson comes back with his own right giving Tillman a standing 8 count. Tillman now is one his bicycle like never before, actually more like he is on a motorcycle. Tillman sprinting backwards and to the sides while throwing his jab everytimes Tyson is in range. Tillman's punches are getting some snap behind them and he is landing his jab regualrly. with about 12 seconds to go in the round Tyson lands a glacing left hook that drops Tillman for a third time. (keep in mind KD's count no more then a jab in the ams). Tillman is up at 3.

Marshall Tillman was an ok heavyweight.
Lot's of losses in his professional carreer.

Isn't that what kept Tyson fighting too?

[Dave1armedTua]

As far as IO known Tyson has never experinced a serous drug problem. Unless you consider Marajuana a drug. Then you could say your mom and dad were once druggies.

Marajuana doesn't make you a druggie, unless you use it on a weekly basis from the time you leave prison till the time you get caught 5 years later.

[Tommy Gunn]

Sonny Liston and
Terry Anderson
the ones I can think now

[Dave1armedTua]

I'm starting to suspect Micheal Grant has a drug problem too. He recently said he's not quitting boxing and can still make it back to championship caliber with no trouble.
