Mike Tyson had a better career than Larry Holmes.

Same as Tyson, correct?

The Ring was just that...a magazine who had no say in the matter of organizational championship belts won in the ring (not The Ring). Your opinion means nothing.

Mike Tyson is the youngest world heavyweight champion. It's in the record books.

Well if you were looking to make it clear to as many people as possible that you are wilfully wrong & happy to be so, keep digging. We can all only lead the horse to water…

 

I'm not wrong.

Anyone else tired of the “alt accusation gag?”

 

What gag?

 

It's irrelevant. We're talking undisputed, not lineal here. Patterson is still the youngest undisputed heavyweight champion.

 

Conveniently moving goalposts after you were proven wrong, huh princess ?

Seriously consider moving to YT comment section. You are clearly out of your depth here.

 

There was no reason for Holmes to fight the WBA champs he didn't fight. Lineal or not he had more credibility than they did. His claim was based on beating Norton who'd beaten Jimmy Young who'd beaten George Foreman. The WBA lineage was built on Coetzee beating Leon Spinks whose close win over old Ali had been avenged.

Case and point when Holmes fought Ali the WBA belt was held by Mike Weaver. Who Holmes had already beaten albeit in a competive fight.

 

Who are your top five heavyweights by resume? Thank you.

 

Funny, since he never failed a test and Mike Tyson admitted using a fake dick with someone else's urine to cheat the results.
