After he lost his manager and almost adopted father Gus D'Amato was the beginning of Tyson's deterioration.After he was upset by Buster Douglas though Mike was terribly out of shape it went bad to worse. After that Mike tried a comeback but he was never the same. His self esteem is probably at an all-time low and boxers have lost respect for him due to his loss of skills.It did not help biting off somebody's ear.

Mike tyson is a thug. He was a small heavyweight with considerable power. He accentuated his power with a menace of presence to instill fear in his opponent and cause them to fall out of their fight plan. However, a good big man can beat a good little man. So, a journeyman named Douglas KO'd the menacing little heavyweight. Tyson's Achilles heel was exposed and he was never the same.
It didn't help that his manager, Cus D'Mato died too early in his career.

Mike Tyson was a beast! He just went downhill after Douglas defeated him it seems. I think he has always had some sort of chemical imbalance though.

Boxing is not all about skills, physical abilities...ect.
Much has to do with the mind, and a lot with the Spirit.
I'm not going to get all into Tyson's lack of character here.....but, he is very challenged.
