    He was a phenomenal fighter in his day.

    Quick Tillis took him the distance, as did Bonecrusher Smith and Tony Tucker.
    He could've potentially beaten most fighters on his night, to say he would have, however.. is in Mike Tysons own words, ludicrous.

    Right because Tyson beat Trevor Berbick it must of meant he could beat Lennox Lewis, Evander Holyfield, George Foreman in their primes. Yeah I see your point dumb dumb.

    So would Holyfield who beat him. So would Foreman who he ducked, So would Mercer who he ducked. So would Bowe who he ducked. So would so many other fighters. When your prime is based on beating Trevor Berbick you don't have much of a prime then.

    I'm too biased to disagree.

    Prime Tyson was a beast but im not sure if he was mentally strong enough to beat Ali. Ali may have already defeated him before he got into the ring the way he normally defeated his opponents before they got into the ring

    Lol only Ali? Actually who did Ali beat? I don't mean grab and hold and not get a DQ for like he did against Foreman. Not lose but gift wins like he did against Norton and not beating somebody who was shot and blind and one eye like Frazier.

    But again who did Tyson beat in his prime for him to be so highly thought of?

    Wlad has a glass chin and enjoys dry humping guys. His jab didn't look good when Corrie Sanders had him on his knees huh? Tyson is overrated but he would knock out either Bitchko brother.
