    Tyson I think in my mind.

    I just remember being 17, finished high school a week prior and being on our version of Spring Break (on the Gold Coast) - boxing was a mainstream sport back then and Tyson was being hyped big time. Literally everyone was talking about his upcoming title fight with Berbick and how it would be unmissable - I ended up in some random people's apartment and we all watched in awe as Tyson rinsed Berbick - on free to air tv, didn't pay a nickel.

    The train didn't stop either as Tyson steamrolled the division to be undisputed in like a matter on months, and we watched it all live on Sunday afternoons at 1pm, totally free on normal TV.
