Tyson on De La Hoya-Mayorga

Former undisputed heavyweight champion "Iron" Mike Tyson was far from shocked by the relative ease in which Oscar De La Hoya was able to dismantle Nicaraguan slugger, former two time world champion, Ricardo Mayorga. "I don't really understand why anyone was surprised at how easy Oscar won, because let me tell you something, they had Oscar (De La Hoya) beating up on wild street bullies with primitive skills since he was eleven years old. A guy like Mayorga has no chance with somebody who could fight like Oscar, especially if they have enough power to give him something to think about. An experienced fighter is going to get inside of his power and beat him to the punch every time, said Tyson. What does Tyson think about the potential Oscar De La Hoya-Floyd Mayweather Jr mega- fight? Tune in Monday to find out!
