Word!! Cus is tha only one that can control him....he was tha only one that could get him in top shape fo tha fight! Ever since he died he has been in good shape but not in top shape....and he hasnt been ready mentally to fight like Cus could get him ready.....he had so much confidence when Cus was alive and training him!
Don King had alot to do wit his fuck ups to.......he made him promote tha fight more than fight tha fight!!

Those year's in jail, would have allowed him to fight the best in the division at their best, and allowed Tyson to be at his best aswell.

Riddick Bowe....(The best big man, IMO)
Evander Holyfield....(Heart os a lion)
Michael Moorer....(great power...But suspect chin)
Tommy Morrison....(Awsome power....no chin)
Ray Mercer....(Relentless...power)
Lennox Lewis....(great right....suspect chin)

It's kinda sad, situation that Tyson was only allowed to fight 2 of the people on that list.....(Holy & lewis)
Both after the jail time...... :-/
Holy fighting all but one. (Tommy Morrison)
Lennox (also fought all but one.....Riddick Bowe)

What Killed Tyson's career......I would have to say Fake fan's & The industry in which he exploded during his time.
Minus the Prime year's taken (3) from him.....add another (3) for the fight's outta the ring to get his lisence back.....twice

I would have to say all but his entire boxing life was taken from him.....

One thing that Tyson will always be is a fighter....cause he had to fight for everything he got.
Fighter's go down in battle, & no way else, It's called history.

Peace

Post by: Hatesrats™ on June 17, 2002, 09:05:11 AM: Yeah...It's sad to say But Cus Died before seeing his dream of Mike becoming the world's youngest Hevyweight champion.
D'mato never trained Tyson during his championship reign.

Alot of turmoil was allowed during the year's in which Cus passed.....such as manager's & Trainer's being fired & Tyson doing stupid shitt.

It's fuccked to blame people for the fall of another.....so I'll leave out the pointy hair demon....lol
and blame it all on Mike Himself...

Robin Gibbons
Rape conviction
Don King

Those all played their part. He just lost his focus
