Kev, tyson lost to douglas cause he pretty much stoped training period. He had no real trainers for that fight. He tried to trian himself. JAY bright? lol laughable. Cus or rooney or atlas would not allow tyson to lift weight.
Most fighters don't especially those trained by old school coaches. it makes you stiff and slow (at least slower than you would be had you not lifted) Some body parts are ok for lifting like the forearms but thats about it.
it is common knowledge that once tyson changed his routine it was down hill. Exit Rooney and the D'amto style and enter the downfall.
Watch tysons early fights, he was trim, fast, flexable and has lean strong muscle. He didnt look like a bodybuilder like he does now.
