So I said, where are you talking? How do you know? He goes... Because I timed you. I looked at the post number and I'm like, what? I looked at the post number on the side of the road where we were, whatever miles. And I never knew they even existed. Yeah. I look and I said, yeah, there's little numbers. You start timing and then fall asleep. Yeah. He timed it.

And he goes, we couldn't have got from here to there in that amount of time unless you were going 75 miles an hour. And I'm like- All right, I'm a smart man. All right, I'm impressed. Don't try to get the mile per hour part right. It's enough that you got me. That's enough. Yeah, I said, and I'm not going to do that. And just, he helped me in crazy ways where

there would be times where I wanted to be, you know, where you wanted to be whatever, right? Convenient, weak, submit, right? And then all of a sudden, all of a sudden, in my mind, cuz was there with the stopwatch. And I'd be like, you know, no, you know, where I was about to say yes to whatever that particular situation was.

I think so. So far, I can only go so far. It's kind of like that old joke where the guy jumps off the Empire State Building, he's falling down, and he's going 80th floor, 70th floor, 60th floor, 50th, and he gets past the 50th floor, and they're looking him out the window, and he goes, how am I doing? So far, so good.

I know he was sensational. I know he was the greatest mix of maybe speed and power ever. I know he was one of the greatest punchers from either side of the plate, left or right. There's been great punchers with just the right hand like Ernie Shavers and Deontay Wilder and Max Baer.

I don't know if there's ever been anyone who could punch as good as he did on either side with either hand other than Joe Lewis and a few others. I don't know if there's ever been such a combination of speed and power to that pure level that he had, and it was a pure level.

I don't know if there was ever as good a fighter as Tyson was where maybe one night he was great when he wasn't tested, but he might have been ready to be tested that one night against Michael Spinks when he took him apart in 90 seconds. I think I saw a great fighter that night. I don't think you can be great unless you have all the requirements of being great.
