Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (1987)Edit
For the first 90 seconds of the bout, Tyson will throw nothing but one-hit knockdown uppercuts. If Mike connects, Mac will get an instant ticket to the canvas. Not to be overlooked is Tyson's unpredictable timing of his blows, making those knockdown uppercuts hard to negotiate. Afterwards, he will throw more manageable blows that do less damage. Little Mac can get a star by simply slamming Tyson with a head punch when Tyson blinks both of his eyes to notate that he's doing an amalgam of Piston Honda's Piston Rush. The main concern for Little Mac will be Tyson's lightning jabs, which can come out quick and can hurt Mac without the player knowing it.
Tyson is a sprite-swap of Piston Honda.
After 1987 debutEdit
Mike Tyson never made a second appearance in the Punch-Out!! series. This is because before a sequel could be made, Nintendo's license to use Mike as a special Punch-Out!! character expired. Nintendo decided that instead of renewing Mike's contract, they would simply replace him entirely with a fictional character of their own creation. Hence the re-issued title, Punch-Out!! featuring Mr. Dream.
