I met Bonecrusher in a Dr. Office in Jacksonville, NC. I was the only person in the crowded waiting room that recognized him. Super nice guy.

James "Bonecrusher" Smith is one of the first (if not the first) college educated boxers. He graduated from Fayetteville State University and worked part-time at the Ford dealership in the mid-eighties. He was a regular visitor to the radio station where I worked. The man is a gentle giant with crazy eyes and a handshake like the jaws of life. He is one of the few to finish a fight against Iron Mike.

@davidalbright7335 with all due respect to this courageous boxer, I found he was slow, especially his jab and he missed so many times, or is it me? 12 full rounds against Mike is quite a performance though.

@@hellochannel6344 He is 6ft 4in. and by any standard a large man. Super heavyweights are not spry and crisp. For his size, he was fast. Like Mike, you wouldn't want to get hit by him.

Have to hand it to the Bonechrusher, that guy is one tough dude......i would hope Mills Lane warned Mike about leading with his head, it was very apparent every time Mike closed in, i would not say Mike did it on purpose, it's just his style to swarm in for close fighting where he is most effective,and the difference in height was part of the issue, but a caution would have been warranted.

Smith was an excellent tough fighter. He held Tyson, but that is just good technique. He withstood prime time Tyson’s heat. That was a rarity at that stage in Tyson’s career where he was destroying everybody. Smith fought him well, but was too defensive to win. At some point, he should have stepped up his offense. Not many could last the whole fight with Tyson as Smith did. He had to fight a cautious fight. No choice.

Yo vi esa Pelea en directo y fue la primera vez que un boxeador le duraba 12 rounds a Tyson. Pero durante casi toda la pelea Rompe Huesos Smith se dedicó a amarrar a Tyson y asi logró desesperarlo. En general fue una pelea aburrida, muy amarrada y trabada.

Smith became BONECLUTCHER SMITH After this Pathetic fight! He held Tyson as closely as he could the whole fight, as to Not give him room to Punch! He should have been DQ’d and Docked his Pay for this PATHETIC DISPLAY! What a BUM!!!
