Many think that a prime Tyson would beat a prime Louis, others don't. But, could the Tyson that stopped Botha beat a prime Louis or was Tyson too far gone by then?
Louis by stoppage. Tyson in the botha fight was physically still very explosive but he had very little confidence after the holyfield fight, his timing was terrible and he reacted to getting hit terribly. He gets completely disrupted. By the time he got his timing and rythm back to some extent(the golota fight) he had slowed down further.(conpare the first 2 rounds of the botha and golota fights, tyson is sharper but slower vs golota) Louis stops tyson in 8-10 rounds. Maybe gets dropped hard but tyson wont beat him unless he lands the best punch of his life and knocks him cold.
For a second I misread the 98 for 88. 88 Tyson stops Louis. Louis beats the **** outta the Tyson that fought Botha. FYI - Tyson never actually fought in 98. The Botha fight was in 99.
****, 1988 Tyson gets the crap beat out of him and knocked could by . The Bomber in 5. Easy fookin money. Tyson never saw the day he beats a Louis. Even the way overrated gay cherrypicking Cus knew that. Wake up boy!
