tyson
When the 1990s began, Mike Tyson was simply the most feared
fighter the sport of boxing had known. He was 23 years old,
and undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, having won
the WBC version at 20, and destroyed the claimants of the other
authorities just past his 21st birthday. He had an awesome physique,
including a phenomenal neck of 19 ½ inches, as thick
and strong as some men's thighs. He entered the ring robeless,
wearing simple black shorts and black boxing boots, and with
an executioner's air of purposeful intent that carried more
menace than King Kong and Godzilla combined. more
