    He's the better "athlete?" Not who was the most dominant at their sport.

    Think about it.

    Funny... I never saw Karelin quit in a match. Happened a few times with Tyson. What kind of real athlete quits when it gets tough?

    Yeah ha ha he was. Yeah ha ha he was 200lbs at 13. Ha ha much like Karelin who was a 13lb baby. But guess what ha ha Russian atheletes were eating steroids like skittles during the 70's so its not entirely of question considering ha ha Karelin was 6ft 4 and 300lbs of solid muscle ha ha. A physical stature so large to the point of being impossible HA HA.

    Yeah, obviously Tyson was on his last legs when he nibbled on Holyfield's ears.

    You're the one with racist tendencies. I never once mentioned race, yet in another thread you assumed you not only knew what "race" I was, but where I was from and my particular upbringing.

    I can assure you that me picking Tyson has nothing to do with his "race."

    Karelikin was a very good athlete, and would probably unquestionably, depending on his height at least, be able to play an offensive lineman position on an NFL team due to his immense upper body strength and balance.

    But that's all speculation.

    Speculation regarding Tyson, in my own opinion, judging by how I've seen him perform in the ring and in training, would lead me to believe that he's the more well rounded athelete and would be better suited to play a skill position in the NFL such as Running Back, which means that he's probably faster than Karkelin, more agile, has more stamina, but probably not as strong.

    To me that's a better athlete.

    But that's just opinion based off of speculation, but you're speculating too.

    Again though, you are the one that's being racist. You should look in the mirror before accusing others.
