Tyson blasted his way through amateur and pro careers, obliterating everything he touched until he became the world\u2019s youngest heavyweight champion.<\/p>\n
Mike Tyson record<\/strong><\/p>\n Beating Floyd Patterson\u2019s previous record, Tyson wrote his history. He subsequently ruled over the division with contempt for five years.<\/p>\n So, how did he manage to get such force into his punches? \u2013 He opened up on his secrets during an emotional interview with Sugar Ray Leonard.<\/p>\n The 80s icon, who Tyson admitted he worshipped back in the day, was on hand as the New Yorker explained the method.<\/p>\n \u201cI learned from the master, Cus D\u2019Amato. He was my mentor. He was throwing punches, throwing combinations. And the art of punching is when you can throw two punches that sound like one,\u201d said Tyson.<\/p>\n How to throw a knockout punch<\/strong> \u201cT he ultimate knockout puncher,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n Leonard then quipped: \u201cThe ultimate knockout punch.
