      Nah, that's nonsense. Like the title says, "Prime Mike Tyson" was unreal - as in, a fiction.
      He was a classic bully - fine as long as he could control the fight and the other guy was too scared to hit back.
      But from the first time he fought a guy that actually wasn't afraid of him - Buster Douglas - he was a busted flush.
      Tyson was never the same fighter again. When your "prime" ends with your first serious challenge - age 23 - you never were a great.

    He has also said many times “I am not that guy anymore. That kid is not me”
    He hasnt cared about boxing in his heart for decades.

    Mike stepped into the ring tonight vs an unskilled pugilist/youtuber who in Mike's prime wouldn't have dared so much look in his direction, and he came up short, father time credited with the win though and not Jake Paul. Among the reason Mike claims he did so was because he wanted to show his kids he was a very special human being; I think tributes like this will hopefully help where his efforts tonight perhaps came up short.

      A focused Mike Tyson could beat anyone, but if Mike was off his game Fury would be the type to make him pay for it. Tyson Fury is precisely the type of fighter that would've given Mike trouble. Tall, great jab, excellent distance control, deceptively great stamina.
