    Holyfield put the jab on him pretty good too.

    I was watching boxing before you were born son. You are just another Tyson fan who knows nothing about boxing, stick to your short attention span video games and let the grownups talk about boxing .

    Holyfield didn't have near as good a jab as a Thomas or Holmes.

    exactly. Casual fans overate the crap out of him, but this forum underrates him

    very good jab and much much better movement than Wlad. A stylistic nightmare for Tyson

    I figured that Tucker would give Tyson more than was expected. Talented boxer.. 'not sure about his heart.

    Tyson was overrated, is now underrated the future will decide. I think he was a great boxer/puncher, but with a resume lacking many big name victories detractors have a decent argument against him being an all time great.
