TYSON

I was yet to witness
a warrior in the ring.
I had never seen
a man so vicious,
till I heard the name Tyson

He had a strong jab,
quick and straight
Always.
His lead was lethal
and his guard steady
Just like a soldier.

I also studied his cross
...unbelievable..
boy, the man could fight!
His punches were fast,
powerful and straight,
thrown with true force.

Though he rarely used the hook,
I liked his fight all-the-same.
One semi‐circular punch
on the opponent's head,
Kaput!
end of story.

I liked Tyson's fight,
always entertaining.
His uppercut was most lethal.
a vertical, rising punch
with the heavy rear hand,
his knockouts were hardy..
What a man.

Long live the legend.
