Mike Tyson vs Oliver McCall ***SPARRING*** Sept. 1987

[Ron Swanson]

Hey , Ronnie baby, have a look at this:

And this one is where he gets hits, but continues to move his head.

3.02 to 3.12 is my favourite one in this vid.

I really want to find my all time favourite where he evades about 20 punches, throws a right uppercut against some giant, and the commentator just says "over he goes" he may as well have said "Tiiiiiiiimber."
Come on Ron, what you got?

The first clip you only have to go 15 seconds in to see him take consecutive shots without moving his head. The 2nd is Reggie frickin Gross haha. Don't get me wrong, I love how wildly overrated Tyson was and is. I made a killing on sucker bets. Never lost a bet on Tyson and never sweated one out. It was always obvious.

Want to see puss poor head movement, watch after he starts getting hit, doesn't take long

Primo, this is probably the clip you want, don't know which bum he is toying with

Atomic Bull ffs. One of the best names and odd ball mentalities with that chin. Only time he was stopped was when he stopped himself.

[Master]

Tyson's style was impetuous, his defence was impregnable, and he was just ferocious.

Thanks Ron, that clip was in the one i sent you. I don’t think that’s the one I’m thinking of, but my mind might be playing tricks with me!
In my head, I can see a really tall Latino or Mexican guy , but almost identical to that finish. I must be getting old!
With regards to your reply , that was 15 seconds of video against the loads I sent with a contrary outcome.
And as for the quality of opponent, fair enough, but my point wasn’t about the opposition, it was about his head movement.
All I did was searched for “ Mike Tyson head movement “ .loads came up including videos of Cus D’Amato continually commenting on it. When I changed the search to “Mike Tyson shit head movement,” nada!

I stand by how I see it. When he's in charge his movement is great. In training it's phenomenal. But when someone hits him it stops. It falls right in line with his psyche, when he meets resistance he looks for a way out. All those times in the mat and never once got up to win.

Mike's talent was something to behold, his fighting was less.(still a great)I see his head movement like Pacs (also a great)foot movement, amazingly fast but not close to as good as people say.

We'll have to agree to disagree................but you are wrong!

That is the eternal debate.

I maintain that the Tyson that won the title in 1986 and made about 9 defences would have beaten Holyfield, Buster, Bowe and Lennox at their best.
