MIKE TYSON CRAZY LEFT HOOK KNOCKOUTS

MIKE TYSON CRAZY LEFT HOOK KNOCKOUTS
(Another knockout weapon of Mike Tyson)

Mike Tyson went on to become one of the two most famous boxing icons of all time, the other being Muhammad Ali. Although Ali was famous for his speed and graceful movement, Tyson is widely regarded as a knockout puncher. There were many KO punchers like George Foreman and others throughout the history of the sweet science but Mike’s power was unique.

And the question was always the same all the time: how can a 5 ft 10 in (178 cm) undersized heavyweight knock out huge, scary opponents some of them 6 ft 5 in (196 cm). Tyson’s reach was just 71 in (180 cm) compared to the 80 in (203 cm) reach of his opponent Tyler Biggs for example.

Many have attempted to answer this question. Some say it was the implementation of D’ Amato’s peek-a-boo style of boxing, in which the fighter holds his gloves close to his cheeks and pulls his arms tight against his torso. And although this fighting style has a lot to do with Tyson’s success (other fighters like Floyd Patterson have used this style successfully), no one was able to use it in such a devastating manner like Tyson.

Mike Tyson’s success was a combination of many factors including technique, intelligent game planning, his natural power and explosiveness and of course, his knockout weapons.
