@vladiator100 holmes jab would pummel tyson imo. thats more about styles than who is the better fighter
-
i agree with the op mostly
-
@vivelajonny lol just lol
you really trying to tell me frazier and foreman wernt as good (imho theyr deffinately better) than tyson??
tyson is the biggest waste in history its actually quite sad he was BRILLIANT then don king got his claws into him and was a wreck by 20 years old so well never know how good he couldve been :(
when tyson faced real class he lost ali stepped up
-
@1SugarRayRobinson1 True, I think Ali would use his reach and sit behind his speed and his cobra strike-like jabs to beat Tyson. I wouldn't be surprised if Ali even knocked out Tyson late in the fight, Tyson as evidenced in his career was not as dominant late in a fight as he tended to get fatigued in the middle rounds.

@MIKESOWELL A better question is what would happened if Tyson faced a prime Holmes....
-
@bigD2387 I think so too.
ali never faced someone as good as tyson

@vivelajonny yes he did. Tyson on the other hand never fought someone nearly as good as Ali.....

I still wonder what would have happened if Larry Holmes' arm didn't get caught in the ropes against Tyson. Tyson was unprotected when he landed that knockout blow to Holmes. He pulled the trigger before Tyson landed that blow, but his fist was entangled in the ropes.

@MIKESOWELL well Tyson was dominant throughout. Larry Holmes wasn't fighting like he was supposed to. he was abondoning the jab and wasn't on his toes. he did come out at the start of the 3rd or 4th round (not sure which), and looked amazing, but then started fighting flat footed again. but if he would've fought like that for the rest of the fight i think he would've put up a very good fight and possibly would've came out with a win.
