What's frustrating is Mike could have been so much more if he surrounded himself with folks who gave a shit about him. Still, boxing hasn't been the same without him. |

If Mike kept his shit together, we could have put him on Ali, Joe Louis or Jack Johnson's level. That's how devastating he was in his prime.
Not great, but great for his time. |

Wrapped up? More like he got played by Don King on one side, and Robin Givens on the other.
Dude had no chance one the 2 of them showed up. |
