    I disagree. I believe you are grossly overestimating the abilities of Buster Douglas. Wasn't that good, had an average career at best. Very weak chin. It is clear you are boosting Douglas in order to change the reality that Tyson got smashed by a bum. Bowe beat arguably the best version of Holyfield, Douglas got creamed in one shot by the same Holyfield.
    Skills? Douglas' skills were certainly no better than Bowe's. Bowe would smash this bum. Bowe KO 6

    You're joking right? You know how stupid that is? That can be changed around very easily.

    Bowe> Holyfield> Douglas> Tyson

    I got nothing against the guy other than his overwhelming Tyson bias.

    Neither have I tbh. I'm still a Tyson fan and at one point he was by far my favourite fighter.

    I was once like Asser85, looking for every excuse of a loss and a bad performance but I came to except that he was beaten by the better fighters on the night.

    It's guys like Azzer that make me shake my head at all the bull**** they talk, the man was far from unbeatable even at his best, except it!

    While I'm not really a fan of any one fighter in particular,I have no problem with Tyson as a fighter. I can say from about 86-88 he was probably the best heavyweight in the world (in 85 he was still learning and being carefully hand picked weak opponents and by 89 he regressed at which point I thought he could be beaten by the likes of Holyfield). It was a rather weak era but I give him credit for being the best in that time.

    I just don't see this immortal god that guys like azzer will proclaim he was.
    Fun to watch but not the best ever, not even close.
