The hard-hitting Tyson in his prime was one fighter that boxing fans didn?t dare miss. Even while he racked up all those devastating knockouts, fans seldom complained about a brief fight.

Tyson holds the record as the youngest boxer to win the WBC, WBA and IBF heavyweight titles at 20 years, 4 months, and 22 days old. By winning three world heavyweight championships in four fights, Tyson became the first prizefighter to simultaneously hold the WBA, WBC and IBF titles, and the only heavyweight to successively unify them.

On June 12, 2011, Tyson was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
