| Posted: Thu Nov 08, 2007 8:29 pm Does anyone have or has anyone seen VIDEO! footage of Mike Tyson vs. Larry Sims, this was Tyson’s 6th pro fight and I cant find it at all so I’m starting to think that it wasn’t recorded, I have two Tyson collections – a 12 disc one & an 8 disc one, both are missing 2 fights “Larry Sims” & “Conroy Nelson”, I’m currently downloading the Conroy Nelson fight but I don’t know if this footage exists ?, will find out soon. the 8 disc collection from www.mike-tyson.info claimed to have the Conroy Nelson Fight but it doesn’t. (I hate when FIGHTER collections are called full careers, if 1 or more fights is missing then it is not a full career!) (Question in short) does footage of Tyson vs. Larry Sims exist ? also does anyone have the 26 dvd collection from www.tysoncollection.com it claims to have the Conroy Nelson Fight as well | swboxing Training Joined: Nov 08, 2007 Posts: 2 TTBO record: No record yet,Play Now! |

| Posted: Thu Nov 08, 2007 9:17 pm just had a look at the Tyson vs. Conroy Nelson download (poor picture Q and I think it’s russian commentary), I have seen this fight before and I think that I even have this fight somewhere with better pic Q. shame about the Sims fight it would have completed the career but it’s hard to believe that there is no footage of this fight when there is so much footage of Tyson as an amature and even as a 15 year old training in the gym with Cus & Teddy but if it isn’t even on TV e.g. ESPN Classic then I don’t think it exists. | swboxing Training Joined: Nov 08, 2007 Posts: 2 TTBO record: No record yet,Play Now! |
| Posted: Thu Nov 08, 2007 11:00 pm According to Tyson bios the Simms fight was not recorded. The camera man or people with the cameras did not show up. Maybe someone took home video footage and it might show up some day. | clarkkent Amateur Joined: Feb 19, 2006 Posts: 55 TTBO record: 1-0 ; 1 KOs TTBO rank: INACTIVE AMATEUR |

| Posted: Sat Jul 04, 2009 6:19 pm I have the 14-DVD set from Mike-Tyson.dvd.com — which is a really great collection — and it has the Nelson fight. Even YouTube has the fight. | Macrodex Training Joined: Jul 04, 2009 Posts: 3 TTBO record: No record yet,Play Now! |
| Posted: Sun Jul 12, 2009 9:08 pm Bill Cayton said all but one of Mike Tyson’s fights were recorded, the Sims fight was the one not recorded. | GivinsMom Training Joined: Apr 22, 2009 Posts: 4 TTBO record: No record yet,Play Now! |
| Posted: Thu Jul 16, 2009 4:14 pm I wish it was recorded. I like the full view of what Tyson could do. I laugh at ppl that say they have his full catalog. | cpimp Professional Joined: Nov 17, 2004 Posts: 176 TTBO record: No record yet,Play Now! |
| Posted: Sat Jul 18, 2009 8:26 am Yes I asked Steve Lott in that interview and he confirmed it. This is the closest thing you’ll ever see from the Sims fight http://media.photobucket.com/image/larry%20sims%20mike%20tyson/Errol100/tysonVsSims.jpg Looks like a typical early Tyson beat down. His victim scared *Censor*, Tyson goes in for the kill and it’s over. _________________ My videos in here: http://www.tysontalk.com/ttvideo-cat-4.html | Turk15 World Champion Joined: Jan 08, 2006 Posts: 512 TTBO record: 86-33 ; 49 KOs TTBO rank: RETIRED |
