When I was fighting Tyrell Biggs, Tyson was telling me at ringside to hit him to the ribs. We always had a mutual respect for each other since we sparred those early times. We got that over with.
After about 25 fights you don't always have to keep going to the bathroom before the fight.
Fighters used to be afraid of the Russians, Cubans but then I'd figure them out and figure out how to beat them.

He will have to be a little bit more aggressive, otherwise the younger guy will have more speed and more energy and I think that may be the difference.
