    I truly believe Tyson would had went down as one of the ATG top ten heavy weights. In his prime he was down right scary. His fighting style was a crowd pleaser, and his speed, power and head movement was definitely a force to be reckoned with. No matter the heavy weight from the smallest to possibly the biggest he would of been a problem.

    Tyson had a glass jaw and Lewis and Danny Williams ruined the little PED cheat

    He got KO'd by journeymen like Williams and Buster Douglas. He had no chin. NONE.

    Tyson in his prime was hit with some bombs and he stood up rather well to them. Lennox Lewis was known for being a heavy hitter. George Foreman was on record saying that he wouldn't fight him. Yet it took Lewis damn near the entire fight to finally KO Tyson. It took B Dougals just as long. I would hardly say his jaw is glass. Roy Jones jr jaw is the definition of glass.

    Shot Lewis toyed with him and there was still 4 and a half rounds to go, before he shattered Tyson's glass chin in crystal clear HD

    Only a ****ing moron would think Tyson has a glass jaw. He pretty much stood there and took everything Lewis threw for 8 damn rounds.

    He took those uppercuts better than anyone. Even Vitali who is allegedly iron-chinned hugged Lewis like his pimp after a single one.

    You try getting hit by a heavy weight with flush shots and see how long you can last? To go eight rounds like that is not the definition of a glass jaw. Not sure who schooled you on the game of boxing, but you fail miserably. No disrespect.

    Tyson had flaws but a glass jaw was not one of them.

    Why are you talking about fights that happened at the end of his damn career when he was shot to bits and pieces? How about the Ruddock fights? Or the Holyfield fights?

    He has a history of fighting elite punchers and he only ever went down to a sustained beating, one fight does not change that.

    his style would have meant him fading by mid30s anyway, in time for lennox and holyman to take over.
