    Spinks.

    I love Tyson and on that night he would have wiped out any heavy in history.

    Larry still can't forget that ass-whoopin'- he needed it, he said some bad comments about some great fighters-Marciano for one.
    I guess that's my favorite Tyson fight, except didn't decapitate the great Marcus Frazier in the first round?

    Or even the Lewis fight.

    An out of shape. old Tyson standing up to Lewis, who at times was teeing off on him.

    Tyson took it like a man and he has a chin any fighter would be envious of:good

    For some freakish reason I like his first round KO of Jack Johnson :lol:

    Left hook to the body for the first KD is horrible, just horrible. Go to 2.30 for the slow motion replay you sick ****s. You know you want it.

    Surprising Jack Johnson's lateral movement and "stiff jab" didn't give Tyson more problems :lol:

    Hey Chris, didn't you pick Spinks? ;)

    Agree. He had exceptional punch resistance. Though not, in my opinion, tide-turning punch resistance, exemplified by his never having won a fight off the canvas.

    Tyson-Ruddock 1, or Tyson-Holy 1. Both great fights.

    I always thought Johnson's facial expression at 3:10 up to him nearly getting decapitated was hilarious :lol:
