Imagine if Tyson had a really solid mentor when he was still boxing. If he had someone to really take care of him and keep him from making terrible decisions. I know he had a guy who later died, but if he had a dedicated guy or group that protected him he may have been undefeated and retired without the downfall.

His name was Cus D’Amato. Short for Constantine. Legend.

Huge Tyson fan, but when the era of Lewis sized "boxers" came in, he was going to face an uphill battle.

Slightly off topic, but a coworker of mine said he was at the gym last week and Tyson was working out right next to him and no one seemed to notice or care.

I said welcome to Vegas bro, we try to not make a big deal out of celebrities as they are around all the time. In truth it’s always kind of a big deal when seeing Tyson, for people in our age group he will always be a mega star.
