Mike was only about 5'11 and 220 at the most in his prime. So when he got out of jail he was past his prime and too small...but in his hey day........I feel so robbed becuase we didnt get to see Tyson vs Holyfield before he went to jail....What a fight it could have been

Go watch Lennox Lewis Beyond the Glory...they tell how Lewis battered Tyson before either went pro...too. Take away Don King and Lennox Lewis would've stolen Tyson's glory...back in the 80's and early 90's. Yes, Tyson beat all the champs of that time, and even though they weren't great...he did beat them, but Lewis has beaten Holyfield, Bowe, Tyson, etc. Lennox Lewis beats him at any point in their pro careers.
