Mike Tyson Tribute

Based on the popularity of the recent Ali tribute, here is another entertaining compilation.  You will be hard pressed to find a better Tyson video on all of Youtube.

I still can’t believe that it has been 25 years since Tyson turned pro back in March of 1985.   It seems like yesterday when we’d gather around the television to watch a prime Tyson in the 1980′s.

And for those interested in some amateur footage of Tyson, here is a brief display of hand speed (with Teddy Atlas looking on).

Those who are new to the site can see pictures of his old training grounds at the links below.  I’m still amazed and thankful that we had the opportunity to train in the same gym.

Following the recent homemade suspension trainer post, I’ve received several requests for additional exercise ideas.  I’ve only had the DIY model for a week now, so I haven’t had too much time to experiment with it.  I did however come across the following videos.  You can find several exercise ideas within each.  The homemade suspension trainer could be used for almost every one of the exercises.
