He does his job with the resources available to him and a renewable, mind you renewable desire each time he gets into the ring. Warriors in certain parts of history are known as mindless killers, not a good image. Know what you mean and mean what you say. In summation, yes under the wing of Rooney given all the sets of circumstances that got him there minus, Ruthless Roper and Robbing Givens, he could with training and the right coaching repeat his feats in this era because with those tools, you have fighters that care and most of all, realistic. I don't know about great but if you think back into your own life you just may find you are capable of doing better things if you had patience, education and perseverance. Champion has a good ring to it, right? Most of the contenders in the heavyweight division should fight more often because if Mike was here they'd definitely need to practice survival of the fittest. I'm not the biggest fan of Mike Tyson but his greatness was never truly fulfilled because he was distracted.
    Easily distracted, after Buster got through with him. Tyson became distracted by his own suspect chin.
    What makes anyone think the same thing wouldn't happen again.
    Suspect chin? You really do not know boxing.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I know how to read a boxing record. He was a great puncher but after all was said and done, he could dish it out but he--his chin--couldn't take it. Too bad he couldn't keep his penis where it belonged, he wouldn't have lost some good years, effectively screwing himself and his legacy. Too bad his chin didn't match his mouth, his KO% would have been much better too.
