    I replied to Stoopider's comments about MMA, you replied to mine, and I replied again. That's how a conversation works.

    I am hard pressed to find a reason for this fool to try so hard to start a flame war, after only being registered for a couple days, and having no knowledge of my person whatsoever. Is this mage?

    I agree with SK. This is a BOXING THREAD. :P

    Sorry about mentioning MMA, didn't meant to hijack the thread. And I just mentioned that I'm not that familiar with Boxing but more with MMA. Hence I posted vids of MIke Tyson, and not Vanderlei Silva for 'Brutality'. :P

    For sure, thats why I still appreciated your post, you contributed to the topic. Back to your post, I think Iron Mike is one of those sad stories of 'what could have been.'

    It's interesting that the thing that made him an excellent fighter made him a completely disfunctional human being...

    really says something for the value of irrational rage, huh?

    Yeah. The hunger made him controllable, once the hunger was gone no one could control him anymore.

    DOn't know about that. I always thought it was his madhat rage that gives him strength in the ring. Now that he has won it all, his passion has dimmed. He probably isn't that angry anymore. I think he found God or something. Either that or I think people found him out.

    I'm no boxing fan, but can anyone explain to me how he eventually started losing? What was the catalyst? I'm going to wikipedia him now This thread suddenly got me interested.

    I remember reading an article sometime ago, they said that the strength of his punches is as bad as getting hit with a wrench.
