With about 40 seconds left in the round, Tyson staggered Thomas with a left hook–right hook combination. With Thomas' back now against the ropes, Tyson delivered an 8-punch combination in an attempt to get the knockout victory, but Thomas was able withstand Tyson's assault and survived the round without being knocked down.

You know you are proving my point. Who are James Tillis Pinklon Thomas and Reggie Gross in boxing history?? I mean i know who Tillis and Thomas were cause i like boxing. But were they great?? Don't even know why you mentioned Gross. Most of these guys made the most money of their career fighting Mike. Most took this route clinch and jold and try to hold on and not get too hurt. We all know to get your shyt off in a fight you have to be willing to eat some thing in return. Most werent willing. But when faced with guys who were willing and talented Mike had trouble, lost or straight up got his ass kicked.
wasn't shook
He's an old school wrestler from the 70's and 80's. Exactly why I avoided this thread.
