I think my Tyson comment came across wrong. Although I think he's kind of a freak now, I didn't mind watching his 2 minutes fights at first. For whatever reason, before he came along, it seemed to me that boxing was different and legendary. It's no different than basketball for me. Back then, I liked watching the Celtics as I grew up in New England. I remember the classic days of Bird, McHale, Ainge, Perish etc and others around the league. After that era, I lost interest completely. It's weird, it seems sports before and after the late 80s were different. Maybe there got to be too much showboating, and the me me me mentality. I don't know.
