Mike Tyson Gets Emotional Talking About Muhammad Ali

Post by Enlightened-One »

I’ve just seen this video of Mike Tyson getting emotional about Muhammad Ali’s toughness and it made me admire him for his earnestness.

I think this video adequately answers the age-old question relating to who would emerge victorious in a mythical match-up between the prime versions of Ali and Tyson.



Thoughts? :-?

I've always despised Mike Tyson.

More myth than monster.

But at least he knows that Ali would own him.

Ali had a big heart, one of the biggest boxing has ever seen.

Tyson was just a kid off the streets developed into a wrecking machine.

Absolutely.

Mike's a good guy, really?😲😳🥶

Tyson is knowledgeable and he knows other fighters, probably better than most, but a good guy, I think not.

I think he has become a good guy in the sense that he's more open and honest about who he is, and who he's not.

There are lot of videos of Tyson on youtube where he is always emotional talking about Ali, He always says nice things.

He even had a go a Floyd once.

Devastatingly blunt how Mike just verbally destroys Floyd here. I have never seen a famous sportsman so openly resentful of another like MIke is of Floyd. Mike's tone is pure total resentment, disdain and loathing for Floyd and his pathetic example. This is the defining moment of Floyd's career and character right here summed up by Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson said in vehement and emphatic words and tones that fraud duckweather is nothing but "a scared little man."

Now contrast that with the respect and adoration Mike has for Muhammad Ali. Floyd is the worst thing that ever happened to boxing and the main reason the sport is so bad and unhealthy today.

Nah

Athletes get better with every generation. Ali wouldn't last five rounds.

Tyson seems to get emotional when he talks about the weather. Head the ball.

Muhammad Ali was close to being a living god.

FMW jr is close to being a living parasitic vampire.

We don't need Mike Tyson to spell it out.

Yes he did suck the integrity honor heroism out of pro boxing, the nature of best vs the best. Floyd ponzi schemed and faked fixed and defrauded his way to the top and then the establishment, which needed an American black star to sell, rigged him to never lose.

Fraudweather was the worst thing to ever happen to the sport. The worst ambassador in boxing history. And the most repulsive disgusting personality I've ever seen in boxing by far. It's a shame Floyd ducked and ran when Arum kept forcing him to fight Margarito who would have slaughtered him spectacularly.

That's why old man Foreman was so competitive during Mike's era.......
