I know this has nothing to do with humorous art or cartooning, but I ran across some videos of Mike Tyson in his prime, and it brought back some very fond memories. You can usually find a good example of prime essay to take inspiration from. If you’re a boxing or MMA fan, you can appreciate the spectacular power and fighting prowess of Mike Tyson when he was at his peak. Many who suffered under his pile-driving power described his punches as “mule kicks”. While I’ve never been kicked by a mule, my guess is it ranks high among all things unpleasant. My father and I would make his fights major events in our home, complete with pizza, chicken wings, beer, and no shortage of child-like anticipation. I remember vividly the Tyson/Spinks fight. Tyson entered the ring looking very angry, and Spinks looked very concerned. I’d gone out to grab a cold beer from the refrigerator, along with a plate of entirely unhealthy food, and when I planted my butt back on the couch, it had already ended. Michael Spinks was horizontal, looking much like what I imagine Rip Van Winkle must have looked like after waking from a twenty year unintentional slumber. It took a few seconds to realize that it was already over, that Michael Spinks hadn’t tripped while entering the ring and bonked his head, that Mike Tyson had used Spinks’s face as a catcher’s mitt for fastball fists. Great memories! Now back to cartooning!
