Boxing legend Mike Tyson quickly earned a reputation as one of the most violently effective knockout artists in the heavyweight division during his career. The pugilist phenom would go on to become the youngest boxer to ever earn a heavyweight belt, ultimately going on to earn the WBA, WBC and IBF titles.
While Tyson has hung up his gloves, one mixed martial artist appears to have adopted the heavy handed pugilist’s style in his striking game. James “The Beast” Wilson put on a short career in the sport of mixed martial arts, ultimately making his way into the Bellator MMA promotion.
However after losing a unanimous decision to Dan Charles in his Bellator MMA debut, Wilson has since pursued a career in the sport of boxing. In the video above, the MMA fighter turned boxer can be seen using some similar movements and striking style to that of Mike Tyson.
To vicious effect, Wilson managed to brutally finish his opponent in a matter of moments. Check it out in the clip above.
