    George was not very stable too
    Tyson was a very sensitive and emotional guy.

    At times a complete train-wreck of a man.

    The intimidation of Foreman would have gotten to him in some way. I'm not entirely sure how - but I'm sure it would upset him.

    With stable people in his corner he seemed to be OK.
