@TheLondonIrish So we can only say in hindsight,could he have beaten ali,lewis,holy and douglas and bowe and holmes on his best night? I believe only young foreman could stop That classic 21 yr old tyson around the time he ko'd holmes was his best.Holmes was rusty but prepared to fight a smart fight but couldnt do anything with tyson's elusiveness,He said this guy is an amazing awkward style and hard to hit""shavers hit like a mack truck but tyson hits like a speeding ferrari"

@TheLondonIrish It was a catch 22 with tysons career,when he utilized the defensive first posture,and training 12 weeks for fights every 3 months,this gave him an incredible elusivness not seen since ali.His style was unique but when he abandoned the training to maintain this defensive first posture,he lost his elusiveness.this started in 1989 vs bruno,a guy the 1988 tyson would beat in 3 rounds without getting hit once.The 89 version was flat and done with defensive posture.

@TheWeaverBeaver24 He would have kept tyson's defensive first posture alive! That was tysons demise starting in 1989.even at 24 ys old,not utilizing the deifensive first posture,all bets are off,with it,all bets are on including against ali.

@montebosss 005 373 5963 or 007 373 5963 straight to Tyson. I believe it's the former, with a nice 0-2 record. If my memory is correct I believe 248 410 7138 takes you to Super Macho Man w/a record of 34-0-34KOs. Every time u beat Super Macho Man you would get a New key and could build your record to how many ever wins you wanted. I don't know if you could have went above 99 wins. There didn't appear to be a 3rd digit for any column. This was 19 years ago, I could be wrong.

Looking back, I gotta defend the Klitschkos from all the people who criticize them today for fighting in a weak division... those guys would have knocked out everyone that Tyson knocked out when he was champ in the 80s. Klitschkos would have dominated that period too... except for Tyson himself. Just watching Tyson box, he was incredible, and maybe unbeatable in his prime. He would have beaten both of the Klitschko brothers.

@TheWeaverBeaver24 What about Rooney he never

lost a fight till Rooney left.

@TheLondonIrish if you're just going to just be a dick whats the point of watching videos of mike and wow he lost a few fights and Holyfield was consistantly headbutting but was never punished in both fights. Also just think would mike have lost later on if Cus hadnt died? No Cus managed to make Tyson one of the kindest boxers ever known, he would help opponents up after knocking them down and he would check if they were ok.

That cheap shot was unnecessary.

@TheLondonrish: GTFO of here, Tyson was like 40 and on drugs when he lost against McBride, you Tyson haters always amaze me with your stupidity and ignorance. How would you like it if I took Ali's asswhooping at the hands of Berbick and shoved it in your face everyday? Hmm? Oh btw Tyson owned Berbick's ass in 2 rounds you shithead.
