He sure was. Brother could have at least shaved off that old fashioned Burt Reynolds mustache, and got the hair on his head either cut down to a low brush cut, with a fade, or even a box cut, with a fade, like my man Tyrell Biggs was working with.

@@billking1751 🤣😭😂😭🤣 Absolute Facts and with all the money he was making he literally had no excuses for looking like he was at a minimum of age 59 inside the ring that night anyway.

@@pauloyeghe1637 🤷The public cares sir. It's for this very reason why a visual rating system exists. For you to even ask that question would indicate that you're unattractive and clearly people do care about that unfortunately so.

Thomas underated fighter. He got hit with some real hard shots earlier. Iron chin. Took hard body shots well. His jab beats most fighters. Hard to hit. Good defence . Just ran into a juggerknot . Roonie trainned tyson. Tyson is still learning & getting better.

Anyone else think Mike didnt look like himself this fight? Like he was way better against Berbick. Way better against Spinks. Explosively and shape wise.
Also- to fight a power puncher and have true success you either have to be Willie Pep or have enough power to keep them honest and off you. Or else its just a relentless attack and depends on the punchers cardio. Thomas had a pretty solid rt hand but not enough to deter Tyson. People do not give Tyson enough credit for his chin either. Guy was so out of shape for so many elite level fighters (s); but hung in for rounds and rounds on heart and chin.
People also dont give enough credit to heavyweight fringe contenders in the 70s or 80s. Guys like Jerry Quarry, Oscar Bonavena, Jimmy Ellis so many more from 70s and guys like P Thomas, Mike Weaver, James Tillis, Tim Weatherspoon even Tommy Morrison. Lots of these guys would have been champs in other eras and many of them for sure Cruiserweight champs.
People talk about Tyson beating bums but Holyfield, Bowe and Lewis beat these same fighters after Tyson already had beat them and nobody called them bums when they beat them, Tysons prime was short but he beat good fighters.
No doubt.. When you think about all the top fighters that faced Tyson like Michael Spinks and Trevor Berbick that seemingly couldn't even withstand 10 percent of the punishment that Pinklon Thomas was able to take from Tyson
I’m just starting to watch ufc and I’m actually annoyed on how much they grab each other, literally after a couple thrown punches they are trying grab and hold each other smh does a lot of ufc fights do this?
This is when boxing was great in a era of this amazing man Mike Tyson was like Jason Vorhees relentless and very strong and would never stop until his victim is done.
The PT I work with was there when Pinklon said to the class/audience that he thought he was ready to fight Mike Tyson. They all looked around and some started laughing, they thought he was crazy This was 30 ish years ago but looking back now man Pinklon was tough
pinklon looks like ken norton. their face is similar, both of them were champion. both of them have great chin. both of them got hit with so many punches, pinklon by tyson, ken norton by cooney and foreman
If Thomas had more energy he might've won that fight. Tyson looked a lot like he did VS Douglas. And nothing like he did just two fights earlier VS Berbick.
Yeah he was a bit wild happy this fight, plenty actually, throwing just to throw sometimes, hut one thing for sure, everytime he does throw, same intention
Tyson was fighting big guys heavy hitters and knocking them out at only 20 years old. The nobody here is you . Talking trash about a former world champ behind a phone screen, lame mf.
This wasn't the first time Angelo Dundee's fighter needed more rest wherein, somehow, one of his gloves would mysteriously be split, requiring extending the one-minute rest between rounds for the glove to be replaced. Pinklon got knocked out in the next round anyway.
What a joke. Mike carried this guy all along, holding back his punches, stretching it out for the fans. smh, Mike could've knocked him in the first minute.
Jesus did not die for any body he is just a prophet who was sent to the Jews in his era to redirect them to the right straight rout after they twisted off the right track ....jesus is just a human being and one of God almighty messengers who was a great man who was supported by God to do miracles of raising dead person to get back to life and many other miracles done by Jesus only by the support of God till prophet mohamed was sent to the entire world with the quran the renewable miracle where you can see miracles being done and discovered today were mentioned in the quran 1451 years ago reveled by an illiterate man who is prophet mohamed who couldn't know how to read or write....in the quran it is mentioned the univers expansion around us and also mentioned that earth and heavens were one piece and got separated from each other ....please ho and read about these facts mentioned in the quran 1451 years ago and too many other miracles mentioned in the quran where we are discovering them now please open your mind and eyes and see and open the quran and see how is in it full of miracles
Even though mike tyson was still with Rooney at this point you can see he was already declining due to his lifestyle. Certain things that mike did instinctually in previous fights came slow or not at all in this fight
@@martindarty1281 Tyson is sloppy in this fight. He constantly left himself exposed, he's throwing constant haymakers, he's not moving his head as much, he's not setting anything up.
@@tari8134 Yes it's true. Tyson was inconstant from a technical standpoint in 1987. But at least, he was throwing bodyshots and using his tremendous footwork.
I think people need to watch these old tyson fights. They forget that he was one of the best fighters in his day.
Not one of the best he is the best and beast in his prime
5:58 lmaooooo he was trying to get that doctor outta there 😂😂

Iron, iron, iron Mike Tyson.
Great boxer
@@munusamym9303 Nobody should ever buy another product from Mike or ever view anything again that involves him. He's a liar and fraud.

Mike Tyson was knocking everybody out 😂😂😂
Не всех. Например, своего предыдущего противника, Джеймса "Костолома" Смита, не смог. Как и Тони Такера, своего следующего противника после Томаса.
People see a former champion keep Tyson at bay for a round and people think Tyson was just sick
and you are jealous of it
@JaydenTorres-o5w How are those AR tests going?

I might be mistaken but it looks as though the Italian Mafia was seated throughout the audience. 😮😂
Great finish at the end its one of Tyson's best knock out victories,he was awesome back in the 80s and almost cleared out the heavyweight division.
😅😮😢🎉😂❤❤😂😂😂😂
He did clean out the division
pinklon absorbed enough energy to keep him warm for a week
What's crazy is that Thomas was 29 years old. That heroine got him looking 40.
29??? Holy shit.
Way too much hugging going on. Not much fighting. Thomas doesn't seem to have much power in his punches.
Ну так и Тайсон в свои 29 выглядел старше своих лет.
But his chin was far better than Lennox Lewis' who lost easily by a featherfisted Mccall
in the second round.
@@royhancock1817then you fight him…lol
Thomas, was one tough dude - took a ton of thunderous shots
Cut man was having a Cow😂😂😂
Its important to note that Don King was struck by lightning, and never touched his hair after that.
Pinklan Thomas took a hell of punishment he’s a tough man
U da best bro, great technic, awesome mike tyson best ever
Really good ❤🎉❤
@16:30 Tyson saying he feels like shit. He clearly wasn’t well in this fight and I’ve never seen him spitting on the floor in any other fight.
Excuses. Not well. Tyson. Not. Welll. Head.
I think tyson didn't want to hurt him..he's very emotionally driven ..
Lmao he threw fucking bombs, Pinklom showed a great chin and heart

Looked like he was more party mike than training. Wasn't following up on Kevin's combo calling from the corner. Energy Looked low

seems like tyson pacing himself and backed off. i cant believe this is 40yrs ago nearly
what a incredible chin

Yes, it's a shame. Watch old ufc figths, it wasn't always like that.
There's don king the devil himself. He alone was responsible for Tysons falling.....
This is when boxing was great in a era of this amazing man Mike Tyson was like Jason Vorhees relentless and very strong and would never stop until his victim is done.
Picture shows left hand/glove problem but audio says it’s a right hand glove problem???

Masterpiece ever. Great
mike is like a huge iron bowling ball..he just kept knocking them skittles down lol.
Thank you Mike you will always be my hero! The best.
Hey everyone, don’t forget to watch Tommy Morrison fights . Great stuff but a sad ending .
No one like tyson did ever
We hear the instructions in the corner. But then it seems these fighters just go out and do what they wanna do regardless.
For example?
この時代は、私にとってプロボクシングに最も興味があった時代です。タイソンが主役のような存在で、このトーマス戦も素晴らしい試合でした。ダウンした事がなかったトーマスを連打で攻略したタイソン。タイソンが、あまりにも強いのですからトーマスは敗北を喫しても仕方がないですね。
It is too bad the corners have to prsonally insult each other instead of just having mutual respect.
I miss old school boxing. Too much flash, hype and shit talking these days.
The main thing is
boring fights
Too long to match equal ability fighter's
And ducking fighters for bigger paydays
We all miss Muhammad Ali too.

I think the reporter at the end was trying to chat Tyson up, no wonder Tyson got out of there ASAP !!
Tyson was asked about this he said he had to use the bathroom is why he left in a hurry he had stomach problems the whole fight

Lol i was thinking the same thing. Hey how about Kelly? Or Conception😂
@@frankmendez323 It's better than Sue.
Both beautiful coaches. But seeing Angelo scream upon his team Over one of Cus fighters is lit..
Pinklon Thomas didn t consider to move his head,
Mike Tyson walks around as if nothin has happen he's fresh all the time time how can you do that?
I would love to have seen this version of Tyson against Holyfield and Lewis because Thomas took a beating and absorbed a lot of punishment 😉
Neither was scared of him so Tyson probably wouldn’t have fared well at all.
I wounded why this fight seemed more challenging than the Berbick fight
Another supposed non good boxer Mike Fought!PInklon was a good fighter, so was Tony Tucker
Michael spinks
Naa they stole that KO from him. Plinkton didnt know what was going on when he stood up, his eyes were shut
Piklon essaie d’imiter la boxe de Mohamed Ali mais il y a un monde qui les separe 😮
the amount of knockout punches that mike threw that didn't land is amazing

Thomas also was addicted to heroin most of his life.

Peek moment. 👁️ 👁️ 👀
Wen Mr Thomas s arms were down leading to the stoppage ref shud have waved it off to avoid damage o even death cos he wasnt protecting himself 😮 scary
Pinklon ran out of gas at end of fifth round.
❤😢
Thomas should have never taken all those ending punches. He should have gone down after about 6-7 of them and taken a knee.
Fantastic
why are the commutators glazing Tyson
