A Lesson On Intimidation From Mike Tyson
#1
love him, hate him, but this is pretty inspiring.


Quote:[SIZE=12px]Most guys were just pretty much intimidated.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]They lost the fight before they even got hit.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]I knew the art of skullduggery.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]I knew how to beat these guys psychologically[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]before I even got in the ring with them.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]I walk around the ring,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]but I never take my eyes off my opponent.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]I keep my eyes on him,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]even if he’s ready and pumped[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]and he can’t wait to get his hands on me as well.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]I keep my eyes on him. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]I keep my eyes on him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px] I keep my eyes on him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]Then once I see a chink in his armor. BOOM![/SIZE]

[SIZE=12px]And one of his eyes may move and then I know I have him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]Then when he comes to the centre of the ring,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]he still looks at me with his piercing look as if he’s not afraid.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]But he already made that mistake when he looked down for that one-tenth of a second.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]I knew I had him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]He’ll fight hard for the first two or three rounds[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]but I know I really broke his spirit.[/SIZE]

be the best version of yourself, that's all you can do.

I saw that documentary, it's good.
Aaah, Mike Tyson, so much wasted talent.

Haha yeah, it helps when you can fight like him though.

I don't buy that eye contact thing, his opponent being intimidated has more to do with the fact that he is/was Mike Tyson. If someone else looked at them that way they wouldn't be intimidated like that. You can avoid all eye contact and trash talking and still be intimidating. Fedor Emelianenko is/was a good example of this, his facial expression in fights is probably the same as the one he has when he sleeps.
