    Since losing to McCall Lewis went undefeated for around 7 years and in that timescale his resume ****es all over Tyson's championship years, case closed.

    Mmmmm, nope. Not really. If you're so confident do a poll: Tyson vs. Berbick through the Ruddock rematch and Lewis vs. McCall rematch through Vitlay. Or whatever you want.

    Go on then set up a poll and put everyone of Tyson's title defences on including Douglas.

    I don't know if this helps but fighters worth mentioning between the criteria you stated.

    Lennox.

    Morrison
    Mercer
    McCall
    Golota
    Briggs
    Mavrovic
    Holyfield
    Grant
    Tua
    Rahman
    Tyson
    Klitchko

    with 1 draw, and 1 defeat.

    Tyson.

    Stewart
    Rudduck
    Bruno
    Seldon
    Holyfield
    Golota
    Lewis

    with 3 defeats, and the no contest with Golota. Plus tbh I think I'm being generous mentioning Seldon and perhaps Stewart.

    Being even more generous I could bring in the no contest with Norris, plus Nielson, Francis, and Saverese if you like.

    No, I have decided as a bonus he can have Etienne.:lol:

    I believe we're comparing their reigns as champions, including Tyson's initial championship run from 1986-1990, which you completely left out.

    Berbick
    Bonecrusher
    Thomas
    Tucker
    Biggs
    Holmes
    Tubbs
    Spinks
    Bruno
    Williams
    Douglas
    Tillman
    Stewart
    Ruddock
    Ruddock

    Something like the above...
    I'll make a separate poll when I get a hold of my computer at home.

    Reality does suck doesnt it? that your hero will never be as highly regarded as Tyson, Holmes or Holyfield no matter how much you blow him online...fact..
    Your hero was dropped by one punch by a couple of nobodies ..fact..( or when it comes to the delusional Lewis d*ckriders they are somehow the hardest punchers in history that would've dropped anyone even though they never beat another top heavy)
    Lewis whole legacy is built off beating the corpses of Holyfield and Tyson cause it damn sure isn't from beating the Tuas or Phil Jacksons of the world which makes up most his comp ..oh yeah and Holy/Tyson in their respective primes were FAR superior than Lewis ever was in his..deal with it weirdo..
    Wow, this goof is having a tantrum. I guess in your pathetic world Lewis walks on water, never losses and is still the champ. If not for the reality of those who watched his whole career and know better, you and your revisionist BS, you're far worse than any Tyson fan I've ever seen

    I bet this post got your panties wet huh, like i said please explain to me how that was Tysons problem whatever vices they had? He fought and ran threw all of them like you do junkies, if only Lewis had some cab drivers, ****heads and drunkards he couldve fought maybe he wouldnt have bored us to tears all those years then he could be remembered as fondly as that overrated never was in Tyson.. It must burn you up to know in 10-20 yrs Lewis will be an afterthought in boxing history and all your online c*ck slobbering will be for naught ..sucks doesn't it?:D

    Except for the fact that most people rank Lewis over Tyson, and for the fact that Tyson's peak was measured in days, not week or years, you're pretty bang on. Hell according to you, Tyson was a corpse at 24. :lol:

    And Ruddock lasted almost an hour with peak Tyson and about 3 minutes with not yet peak Lewis.

    And as for chins, last I checked, it was Lewis giving Tyson a spanking, not the other way around.

    Those are all facts, kid.

    BTW, Lewis beating the **** out of Tyson's a little off topic, the original topic was Holyfield beating the **** out of Tyson. :lol:
