    Should have made the poll public.
    At first I thought it was Tyson vs Floyd in a boxing match for some reason.

    Good points, but my theory is that because
    Mike Tyson was a unique special individual of the highest caliber when it comes to his boxing style.

    He was a 5'10 little guy fighting in a division full of giants. His head movement, his speed, his defense, his combinations can not be emulated at all by anyone in today's era.

    Floyd's shoulder roll and his style could be emulated a lot easier then Mike Tyson's style. If Jean-Mormeck or whatever his name is had attempted
    to bob and weave, he would have been knocked out in the first round.

    Is this a joke thread? Mayweather's just a little squirt while Iron Mike is boxing in it's purest form.

    Lots of Americans dont know who FMJ is.

    Almost everyone in the world knows who Mike Tyson is.

    Floyd is boxing in it's purest form..

    Tyson is HYPE in it's purest form....he fough in a **** division mainly against guys they pulled from the crowd 15 minutes before the fight...at least that's what they looked like.

    Soon as Mike fought somebody that WASN'T SCARED he got KTFO..:deal

    Things have to be going Mike's way..if not...he'll find a way out...like biting.

    Mike was all hype...easy to look like a beast against the likes of Henry Tillman and the dreaded Marvis Frazier..:hi:
