Shannon & Isiah cover the scope of Mr. Wonderful’s NBA career, from being drafted by Detroit to becoming an All-Star and leading the “Bad Boys” Pistons to back-to-back championships in 1989 & 1990. Isiah ranks the top basketball dynasties and players of the ‘80s, and goes into the dynamics of playing in the league during that era. He touches on his exclusion from the 1992 Olympic Dream Team, and the “fascination and disappointment” he felt in response to his portrayal in ‘The Last Dance.’

Isiah’s ankle game is so legendary and doesn’t get enough praise
I couldn’t believe it as a kid
Facts
That phantom foul call that cost them that game & championship is why it doesn’t get the praise it should, smh.
@@ThaClancyFam2 💯💯💯 True! And it’s a crying shame
Its CRAZY! People always talking bout a "flu" game, but ALWAYS fail to mention a 5'11 point guard scoring 25pts in the 4th qrt of a finals! Not ti mention it was when everybody said the NBA was the toughest
I.T. is the type of person that would smile in your face while dropping 40 on your head in a game
Allday... Ddue was an assin.
@Dats a paddlin Facts!! Co-Leader Of the Bad Boys!
he wasnt smilin those days. Would drop 40 and split your wig
@@umarb7325 exactly.. Zeke wasn't happy go lucky.. straight monster
@@umarb7325 He was smiling while he was doing it.
IT deserves all his flowers. ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC PLAYERS IS NBA HISTORY. from accolades to morale. he’s got it all
💯💯💕💕
I'm from Detroit, coming up as a kid Isiah was me and my grandma's favorite player. Our team over came so much against all odds. Made me be proud to be from Detroit.
Same here bud, same here.
I'm a Detroit native as well. DEETTTROOOIIITTTT
Wuddup doe btw...Jefferson and Chalmers by way of Mendota and Schoolcraft checking in.
This comment rings true for all of us Detroiters old enough to remember Pistons in the 80s to 90 in real time (Detroit is one place where Michael Jordan IS NOT revered and Karl Malone IS despised). Zeke himself has said on countless occasions that wherever he goes, he represents Westside Chicago and Detroit.
Isiah is the 2nd greatest PG ever. Glad your giving him his Roses!!! This new generation doesn’t understand how good he was!!!
Do any of you on this thread remember when he sprained his ankle & dropped 25 in the 4th quarter on the Lakers in the finals? LEGENDARY
Isiah is definitely one of the best to ever do it, like Lebron said about him "they need to give him his flowers while he's still here"
Since him name the last 6 foot pg to get finals MVP he's 2nd to Magic Johnson
F lebron 💩
@@youngskyler7568 Steph should have won it 2015 he was robbed averaged 26,6,5. Andre was a big key piece and did lower lebron fg% but lebron still put legendary number, people were making a case for him to win it instead of Andre. Curry was robbed. He also had a good case for it 2018
@Dee ? He was president of the nba players union when he played too. He was always a leader.
@Groovy J cap
We the ppl r soooo glad Uncle Shay decided to get into media.. thx unc
NEVER thought i'd hear Isiah Thomas curse. Even though he a bad boy he is Class personified EVERY TIME he is on camera.
That's how u know Isaiah was vibing wit him cuz he could be himself
One of Isaiah Thomas’ older brothers lived down the street from me in Detroit. He had a 1/2 court in his backyard and he let us play whenever we wanted. The only rule was NO CUSSIN’
Isiah Thomas only bad Boy on the court but class act off the floor.
We the ppl r soooo glad Uncle Shay decided to get into media.. thx unc
Momas cooking!
Detroit love you Isiah. Thanks for the back to back championships. You deserved to have been on the dream team. Your talent speaks for itself.
Chi-Town loves him too.
too bad stockton was the most productive pg we've ever seen, bad timing for lil zeke
@@jaycee9153 Zeke got back2backs. Never a bad time for THAT‼️
This is the realest podcast on CZcams. Unk has yet to have a bad interview
I agree.
Agreed!
Preach
He is really good; honest, funny & kind !
Not a bad interview no
Man its crazy to think isiah was such a killer he speaks so calmly and smoothly and is always smiling if you never watched isiah you would never think he was so cold
In a good way
That's what made him so great. Love you man. The Real 1.
Yeah I wouldn't even think this guy could dribble a basketball if I didn't know better. Crazy
Stone cold killer on that basketball court
He has the vibe of a psychologist or some social worker or something. Good positive soul
One of Isaiah Thomas’ older brothers lived down the street from me in Detroit. He had a 1/2 court in his backyard and he let us play whenever we wanted. The only rule was NO CUSSIN’
Aye, was he on Lasalle?
I played against him at that church on 3rd and 6 mile
That's fire
@@AnanseSavage I think Derek Coleman people are on Lasalle.
@@TherealAlmightyAG possibly .. around 89' 90' 91' .. his family was on Lasalle .. I stayed on Baylis and we would hoop in their backyard. Isiah actually came thru one day .. One of my friends came thru and told me Isiah was around the block and I ran over there and met him. I was like 12/13 at the time.
Isiah Thomas Is a class act! A true trend setter Beautiful inside and out.
That's true
Na he’s just an snake . The nice guy persona is just a guise
@@paulwilliams2024 yeah because u know him personally...internet clown
@@paulwilliams2024 i guess u know the man right
Isiah Thomas is a Chicago legend, shouts to him
I'm a Detroit native and lifelong Pistons fan. Zeke, Barry Sanders, Stevie Y, & Joe D are legends in the city.
Stevie Y?
@@aidenburrows3036 Steve Yzerman
What About Billy Sims 🤔
Sheed, Megatron, and Datsyuk are up there as well.
Billups too fam
The fact that this man won 2 championships in that area with a less talented team speaks for itself. He's definitely one of the greats
Era not area
@@michaelturner9443 whatever
We love Isiah Thomas.
BAAAAAAAD Boys.
Shout out from Detroit West Side!!!!!
Greetings brother Shay, I've been watching sports show's since The NFL today show in 1975, and brother never have I been so proud to see how professional, intelligent & just plain decency that you bring Everytime I watch you on any show, brother may GOD, continue to bless you and keep you safe please keep up the good work. PS the quotes of your grandparents are"Priceless 😂
Most underrated legend ever, The only man to beat Magic , Jordan, and Bird in their primes
Dumars and Rodman did too.. lol
Jordan wasn’t in his prime
Jordan wasn't in his prime...
@@yoe91 he had multiple mvps when he was getting beat. He was prime he just didn’t have the right coach yet.
@@thebrazydiamond4791 So Jordan wasn’t in his prime at 25-26? He was leading the league in scoring every year, he was mvp and defensive player of the year in 88. Fck you mean he wasn’t in his prime lol
So underrated, just like the Pistons as a team.
Underrated by who?
By most when talking all time greats. Same as the team as a whole. The NBA and the media wanted the league to basically skip over the Pistons and rush to love the Bulls.
@@rrichmond14 Thats what I was thinking. Everybody know Zeke was a straight savage on the hardwood
I can agree that he is underrated as more time passes by. I hear some media reps saying that Steph is better than Zeke, even though Zeke was great during an era dominated by big men.
When they talk NBA great teams.. I hate when bad boys aren't mentioned and im a pip Jordan bulls man.
thank you so much Shannon for giving Isiah the light and respect he deserves.
It’s a toss up who has the greatest smile on TV in America . It has to be between Isiah Thomas and Magic Johnson . Both legendary PGs
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Agree, you can add Chris Webber as honorable mention.
Lifelong Piston's and Lakers fan. No one had the heart that Zeke had, and they labeled him a villain for it.
He was untouchable to me after that 3rd quarter in Game 6 of the '88 Finals. Dropping 25...on one ankle, against MICHAEL COOPER...the best wing defender in the league...even as a Lakers fan and as a kid, mad respect for Zeke.
Tf how you fan of both .you a fraud
@@fresh2def23231 Don't be small minded forever Bruh. First game I ever went to of any sport was a Pistons game. My family is from Highland Park and spent every summer there as a kid. Los Angeles is my home, so it comes with the territory. Before you ask, when they played in the championship, I rooted for Detroit, because they were the underdog.
@@fresh2def23231 - 😂
@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 He had us beat in Game 6. I don't think the foul was a phantom foul, Cap still had to make the free throws. What I really want to ask him about is the last 14 seconds, he and AD ran into each other on the inbounds and Joe Dumars took the last shot with Zeke cooking like that, he should have taken the last shot and my Lakers may not have repeated.
Isiah is the 2nd greatest PG ever. Glad your giving him his Roses!!! This new generation doesn’t understand how good he was!!!
Stop the foolishness he’s not better than curry
@@robertsawney7901 you are high. Isiah is absolutely better then curry. Isiah was a 6 foot Michael Jordan...an absolute killer.
@@heels4lifx bro Isaiah can’t lace Steph shoes curry is easily 2nd best shooter ever back 2 back MVP unanimously as well Isaiah didn’t even win a MVP 🤦🏽♂️ stop disrespecting Steph
IT would put that D on Steph Curry none factor.
@@robertsawney7901 well to be fair we have to take into account the rules and technology. IT never had a sneaker custom made just for him and his game, he never had a chamber he could go in after a game to recover faster, no nutritionist, personal trainer, or a medical staff that even compares to what Curry has in Golden State. All of this plus he was getting beat up night in and night out by NBA big men who were tryna scare him from coming in the lane. Zeke stood toe to toe with everybody he faced and beat em at least once or twice. He beat Mike, Bird, and Magic. Curry is great but him and today’s players are basically male divas and its kinda unfair to compare them to players of the past.
I had to wear my mom's winter boots back in elementary. This is such a real convo
I remember rolling up pants and tucking them in my over sized boots because they were still too long 😂.
Isiah Lord Thomas III is by far my greatest and favorite NBA player! This brotha epitomize intelligence, leadership, skill, grit, clutch and killer mentality that is rarely found in one athlete :D
Zeke in my estimation is pound for pound the toughest player to lace up in a big man's game. Zeke the (HOF and NBA top 50th) Giant slayer.... Bad Boys 4 Life !!!!
Club Shay Shay. Finally shannon will have his moments without being interrupted by drip bayless
iTs My TuRrRrRrRnNn!!! 😂
He should bring Karl Malone in for some REAL TALK.All this political correct nonsense amd soft convos seems too cliche and overused.Bring in Karl Malone
🤣🤣🤣🤣
15 min segment on lebron Shannon 14 min skip 30 seconds and the other 30 sec Shannon cutting him off
No Skip, Club Shay Shay doesn't have to implausible like Undisputed...
Everybody making this abiut LeBron, Jordan, if Isiah mad!! Can we appreciate how good of an interview Uncle Shay put down and how solid the answers Isiah gave were?!?!!
Seriously! It felt like a documentary
Grown man talk I cherish the opportunity to learn..Thanks for this soul food
Happy to see unc have these genuine relationships with these legends . You just feel the respect
The energy on these two is unreal. All positive love and respect 🙌🏿
Man shay shay got them guest picks like woah! Love it!
Isiah Thomas has one of the most pleasant voices ever and a positive, cool spirit.
Shannon’s chronological method of interviewing is AMAZING!
I love how Shannon humanized Isiah instead of centering this on Jordan. You would think no one else even played before or during Jordan's era.
BRUH FACTS!
People make it seem like that whenever they say he never played anyone. There were a lot of great teams and great players in the 90s
@@UnderCapAOS nobody says he didn’t play anyone, just say the 90s is not the best era of basketball.
@@3030stick nah they do. I see countless comments in videos saying Jordan played against “plumbers”. Mostly Lebron fanatics to be fair.
@@MrMessyb That "fair" accusation doesn't come close to the countless times Michael Jeffrey Jordan's #1 fanboy says Lebron played in the "Leastern" Conference.
U just don't know what u did for a kid Detroit. Thank you Zeke BAD BOYS!!!
I’m a Celtics fan, but I have so much respect for Zeke. Just an amazing player and, although I’ve never met him, seems like an amazing human. One of the greatest to ever play.
These two guys grew up in poverty and became the very best in their fields. They are truly awesome! Isiah is a true inspiration and has achieved the American dream through hard work and toughness.
I have a great respect for this man. His life would make a great movie how soon people forget that he was responsible for putting the Raptors on the map as a GM. He drafted Damian Sotomyer, Marcus Camby, Tracy Mcgrady etc...
Great eye for talent period.
No analytics.Just good old eye test and years of playing against all types of players.Stoudamire*
Actually there is a movie about his life it was back in 1989 or 1990 cant remember the name of it though google it.
Who is "Damian Sotomyer"🤔🤔🤔😳🤣
I know who he's referring to, but.......wow.
@@michaelhampton5828 Mary Thomas Story - Classic!
Told KG to go pro too
Legend for real on the court
And off dude has got a law degree or masters from Berkeley coming from the west side of Chicago in those days and times
@@coleeason6007 I didn't know that 👍
Great interview, I’m very impressed of SS timing and questioning abilities. I love the knowledge of facts and history in this interview. Zeek is always a class act, his ability to be responsibly truthful, technically articulate and transparent is a lost talent. They need to make an IT movie 🍿🏀🎬🏆🎥
Most of the media personalities with podcasting dreams are shattered, actual players are taking over.
I've long contended that what Sharpe does on FS1 is largely an act. This was an incredible interview. I've known of Isiah since 1978. My cousin remarked about "this kid from Chicago" that also played. When WE (I'm a lifelong Pistons fan) drafted him. I knew it was only a matter of time.
What I enjoyed about the interview was them discussing the mental aspects of the game/grind. You rarely get that in depth in sports coverage nowadays. Great interview.
We need Terrell Owens, Randy Moss, Charles Oakley, etc
KARL MALONE !!!!!
OJ SIMPSON
@@kwansmith6073 omg can u imagine uncle Shay being like " come on now o.j u did it " or maybe he does not think so. He does great interviews.
@@natalieps2387 he should get Mike Tyson too
@@kwansmith6073 mike is always an adventure ! I am happy to see he has found peace in his life. I cried when he cried about ali.
Isiah is so correct about the way we grew up back in Chicago, it is so different now. Isiah was an amazing player and so is Shannon. 2 amazing brothers.
If Lebron James don’t stop by Club Shay Shay.... imma do something crazy!
Shannon knows everything about lebron lol he gonna be like bron you know skip bayla don’t think u that good bro u gonna be 40k points 10k plus rebounds and assists all time leading scorer the Kang aka Goat James skip bayla I mean bron
Coach Knight was ready to throw hands!!! 😂
Isiah Thomas is the Man hands down I always enjoy listening to Isiah Thomas, this was a great interview.
I’m so happy to get this notification with Zeke. I clicked immediately. One of the smartest hoopers ever.
Facts and my favorite player since 87!
@@davidcampbell215 His game was so dope.
I had the immense pleasure to see Isiah Thomas play live. He came to DC Capitol Center against Bullets. Hall of Famer and NBA Champion. One of my favorites!! Thanks for the memories!
Isiah held his own against Giants (Bird, Magic, Jordan,Dr J, Hakeem)
When will he get his just due.
He’s in the hall of fame...
@von gray It's pretty difficult to say Jordan was murdering them if he wasn't beating them. I understand he was easy better than them, but he was losing.🤷🏿♀️
He beat them after Isaiah was playing with a career ending wrist injury and broken ankle.
Not taking anything away from Jordan, but that 'murdering them' narrative is like saying the Bad boys were murdering the Celtics cuz they finally beat them.
And Kareem
Real people know that Isiah did so never look for these media fools to love Thomas like that because most of those guys who played against those Pistons teams were jealous... and the media from NBC, ESPN, and other outlets (not CBS) just played that propaganda machine instead of looking at the real.
@von gray Jordan didn't have the supporting cast as Isiah either, but once he did, he ran they a@@ off the court and back to Detroit.
Big fan of Zeke.....a lot better than history will ever give him credit. Should've won the 88 Finals if he doesn't sprain his ankle and a phantom call against Laimbeer!!!
3peat
He's a legend but stop with the what ifs, man. Magic was also injured when the Pistons swept them so this type of argument can go either way.
@@rjisidoro2388 not really. We were clearly better than LA by ‘88. They may have won a game or two but....nah. No belt....
@@OrondeBranch facts
@@rjisidoro2388 Isiah had the same hamstring injury Magic had in the ‘89 finals, if you watch the games he’s wearing an ace bandage around his thigh, he just played through it as he often did 🤷🏾♂️
Isaiah and the Pistons were a staple in my childhood. A Consummate Professional That Truly Made A Name For Himself Amongst The Greats Before Him.
Great Interview Big Time.
Great interview. (Shannon one of the G.O.A.T.). The way they depicted Isiah Thomas & what he really is, are two different things. I love Isiah Thomas
I never watched him play....other than highlights...but he has become my favorite NBA player that played the game on and off the court!!!! His sense of awareness, intellect as well as charisma is incredible!!!! He was very strong mentally!!!
Uncs that Nipsey Hussle Intro bangs everytime! another great interview! lot's love from England
GET LEBRON JAMES ON THIS SHAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know its coming one day. Gonna be amazing when we get to experience it!
@@seanhernandez8081 Indeed, it will be crazy absolutely no doubt, especially related to the wait.
Patience
I hope he does, Lebron doesn’t really do any interviews. That’ll be crazy tho. Have to three way skip bayless in 😂😂😂😂
I am a Lebron fan and Shannon Sharpe is my president
No one has more perfect teeth than this guy. 100k smile.
I love reading the delusional comments about the Pistons and Zeke. You can see who didn’t really watch the game. Bad Boys for life....😎
yes sir
❤😂😂
Deserves so much credit for not only his basketball skills, but for his intelligence and compassion !
I like this combo because they're both upbeat and and have the old school stories. Isiah always brings very candid stories and insight. I enjoyed that Bobby Knight story, Mom approval story. Mama knows best!
Dope podcast! Shannon's interviewing skills getting more polished every episode.
Never followed basketball or the NBA ever, didnt know who Isiah Thomas was, but its impossible to deny how amazing and important this and interviews like this to be mad. Thanks Unk, another amazing one
Isaiah had mind and defense of Chris Paul, passing of nash, handles of Kylie, scoring and speed of iverson, the box office effect of curry and the winning/killer persona of magic
All that? Nah.
It may not seem like it when u watch the bad boy version but his first 3-5 years in league he played much different... more of explosive scorer but adjusted his game when Daly became coach

@@kentbell9878 the part I question is the Iverson speed and the kyrie handles. The other stuff is fine.
You need a part 2. Bring Zeek back again.
Good show
Shannon is one of the best sports analysts around. It's not just because of his personality and humor. It's his knowledge and preparation before each show that really makes him stand out. The man is a professional in the truest sense.
How does Shannon make these interviews flow so well with no editing and ONE TAKE?!! Respect!!!
Understand Bobby knight is recruiting you at your house and the lights are off and no heat !! Imagine that ....
Talk!!
And roaches crawling around.
And wearing your sister's clothes.
And Isiah's brother ready to knock you out
Love hearing the older generation speak about there time, being 22 I couldn’t imagine living like they did growing up !!
legend on and off the court
Underrated one of the best point guards of all time.
After Magic then it is Isiah....then the rest.
@@sherrodmacs3472 where do you have John Stockton?
@@MrJustind886 John Stockton is in the professional toolbox. He does everything right along with the consistency is he is in the top 5. If he beat Jordan in one of the finals he be top 3 or 4 player. You see Isiah knocked Jordans teams out the playoffs 3 years in a row. Isiah beat Bird. Isiah beat Magic and Kareem. All during the golden era. Isiah prevented Jordan from winning anything until the 90s Stockton had a chance but failed...so he is bottom 5.
I’ve always liked Isaiah...always seemed like a good guy. Not to mention his game was always insane. Much respect Isaiah ✌🏽
Another thing though, why is Dominique Wilkis so consistently glossed over when people discuss the greats of the 80s. Wilkins was EASILY 1 of the most dominant players from that era. The biggest difference between him and the other top 5 players between 1985 to 1994 is the organization that drafted him. Georgias College and Pro Sports teams are cursed and all Native Georgians know that but Wilkins should be lauded as 1 of the top 5 players in the entire NBA between 1985 to 1994 some SOMEBODY PLEASE put some respect on this man's name!!!
We loved Dominique Wilkins growing up
Can’t argue that
Everybody that saw an was there know bra for sure
Wow! Man I'm loving coming to Club Shay Shay. I love Isaiah. Thanks Shannon
Nothing but admiration and respect for Isiah, what he is saying in this interview is the truth. Jordan arrived in the 90s but was owned in the 80s.
Best true pg ever
Can’t argue it.
That's just stupid. It's so obviously Magic Johnson
Watching Shay Sharpe is more then entertainment.. He keep his jewelry box open dropping them 💎💎💎💎
Isiah winning 2 chips at his size is just amazing. Beating magic/kareem/worthy and bird/mchale/johnson is tough
He beat Jordan 3 years in a row.
@OIP ! Finally after every one got old and broke down and retirring.... Jordan had to wait for the 90s....He had 6 years duing the golden era against...Bird, magic, isiah and dr J and Kareem....Jordan won in the 90s....Too bad..
Love isiah Thomas he so real!! Best interview so far !
It was great to hear Isiah's side of the issues presented in The Last Dance. Isiah seems to have a pretty mature response to it as well. Interesting to know he's been steady going to school all these years. Isiah's an interesting character.
These are 2 of my favorite people!
Isaiah’ s dad knew about how the slave owners viewed us as their entertainment.
Even today......over 500,000 children playing high school sports trying to get into the NBA that has less than 500 players.....
Not view us as, we are their entertainment
Is it their fault that we keep trying to be their entertainment?
On god
@@Topnotchryde88 on god smh
This man should of been on the dream team
Imagine the guest who would come to his debate show if he didn’t have Skip
RIGHT!!!! Skip SOMEWHAT holds Shannon back in my opinion. 🤷🏾♂️
Oh for sure.
Big fact brooo😂😂😂
hate to say it but skip is why shannon got huge. He vouched for shannon to be his co-host. His clickbait reporting gets views
Before COVID they always had guest stop hating on skip. They both make the show good
Isiah was a Great Great player and a Great human being!
IT had one of the most electric smiles in the game. A cobra on the court with a smile as legendary as magic Johnson.
I used to love those summers living in Detroit watching those bad boys win championships and by the way them bad boys MADE MICHAEL JORDAN the player that he is FACTS!!!
There is some truth to that statement. Jordan had that killer mentality but those pistons team really showed him what leadership was about and team play. He had it in college.
@@louiejordan6933 I would say the pistons abuse of the bulls molded the bulls (not just Jordan) tougher to the winners they later became.
@@Tony-fb1gd yes 👍 you are correct
@Lee Brew i agree 👍 like Boston before them Detroit. The Pistons Sharpen his desire to win. They both Championships to your city along with Phil and Scootie.
@@Tony-fb1gd Exactly! Nobody talks about the ENTIRE Bulls team, they just talk like Jordan was out there playing by himself.
Not going to lie. This was the 1st video I watched from start to finish. I still watched the other videos but this one was start to finish.
Wow this interview is a good one I gained a lot of respect for Isaiah. Real down to earth dude
Love listening to Isaiah. Very poised and intelligent!!!
Love Zek!!!!!!!!!!!
how does Isiah remain looking so young..that man has not aged in 40 years..great interview shay shay..Isiah def one the greatest to ever do it..
This is one of the most awesome interviews I’ve heard. Amazing and I’m glad to here Isaiah Thomas story.
Love this interview. Michael Jordan STANS may not appreciate it much though.
Great interview! To know the background of a person can open one’s eyes! I truly enjoyed this interview!
I love Isiah Thomas no matter what adversity keeps his head up and keeps smiling
1988 ECF: Thomas - 35pts, 8bds, 4asst
Those of us raised in the 60’s and 70’s were taught that we better keep our heads in the books, graduate high school, go to college, and get a job...all while knowing and respecting that our parents and teachers held the hammer...and we better not cut up cause the consequences were fierce!!
It’s mind blowing the nba wasn’t on tv back then
Boxing and football was king back then
@@Phillygoat1983 absolutely. Matter of fact it's theorized that since mid to late 90s after Tyson, Holyfield, Bowe, and even Lennox in the early 00s, the heavyweight boxing division has't been as competitive because all of the best biggest and strongest athletes are now attracted to football and basketball.
@@mobetta2092 I agree ur rite
@@Phillygoat1983 born in 76' I remember as a kid in the 80s Walter Payton, Dr. J, Larry Bird, and Magic being marketed like crazy to the youth by the NFL and NBA, and a teen in the 90s it became Dion Sanders, Ken Griffey Jr, Bo Jackson, and Michael Jordan.... with Kobe, A.I., Derek Jeter, LeBron, Michael Vick, Randy Moss and others continuing into the 00s to present day being heavily marketed by the NBA, NFL, and MLB over boxing.
As dominant as Mike Tyson was, he was never anyone kids strived to be on a grand scale because we understood we would never be able to do what he was doing in the ring 😂
@@mobetta2092 Correct sir! A guy like Charles Oakley would have been in someones boxing ring in the 60's & 70's.
