Mike Tyson was regarded as the best heavyweight in the world during the peak years of his in-ring dominance. Relying on his highlight-reel knockouts, Tyson could rightly live up to the moniker of ‘The Baddest Man On The Planet’.

“Anytime you want to be the best in the world at anything, there’s gonna be disappointment,” wrote Mike Tyson.
