Does anyone have any articles about Tyson as an amateur and was he tipped for glory?

I remember hearing about Tyson while he was an amateur he fought in Europe Sweden maybe and a mate was there to at the time, you don't box international unless you're near the top

As I recall, Tyson was getting press in around 83 or so. Boxing Illustrated magazine had an amateur boxing section & Tyson was featured.

Mike Tyson fought overseas as an amateur back around 1983 in the Tammer Tournament in Finland,Europe.
