Mike Tyson admits that one of his toughest opponents —
besides himself — was Pinklon Thomas.

Tyson explains that Thomas had incredible toughness and durability,
so much so that it took 17 clean punches before he finally went down.

For a man who knocked out most heavyweights in seconds,
that kind of resistance meant something.

This clip shows a rare moment of respect from Iron Mike —
acknowledging an opponent who refused to break,

who kept standing,
and who pushed Tyson to dig deeper than usual.

Power meets toughness.
Relentless offense meets unbreakable will.

This is why Pinklon Thomas earned Tyson’s respect.
