Always remember an article I think it was in Boxing News after Tyson KO2 Tubbs. "Tyson had to come from behind t win the fight." Great line that summed up Mike's domination of the sport at that time.

Green could have been a top contender. I think he felt mistreated by TV and was too busy impressing his pals to really dedicate himself like he needed to.

I feel so as well, but he needed the right trainer, and he needed to train outside of the NYC area. I personally would have liked him to rematch Robbie Evans after that draw they had early in his career.
