    The only thing Evander does better is head butt & fight dirty, He isn't hard to hit, he had trouble with an ancient Holmes who Tyson destroyed in 4 rds, he doesn't have the kind of power louis has nor does he get the kind of snap in his punches that Louis gets furthermore Louis had a better jab and was a master at setting fighters up and getting them in to the position he wanted them to be in, I suggest watch the man in action before you talk such smack.

    I have, infact he was getting outboxed by the smaller billy conn and conn would of beatin him if he wasn't stupid by trying to brawl with him. And holmes, even as ancient as he was, was a better tactian than Louis and had a better boxing brain than him. So you can't use that comparison. Plus they had 2 different styles. Louis also fought a lot of tomato cans and was dropped by a couple of them. Now I'm not saying louis wasn't a good fighter cause he was, infact I've told many of people he's better than Marciano and would of beatin him in his prime but i'm not gonna make him more than he is either.

    This just prove you're a nuthugger. Tyson was in a very good shape when he fought Dougles. Hell Tyson back in his days was never out of shape. The only out of shape when he weigh in 239 pounds vs Nielson.

    No it only proves how nieve you are. Tyson looked lethargic from the opening round. He had no head movement, no consistent use of the jab, and came in straight up every he went to punch. The whole Douglas would of gave all time greats fits the nite of toyko is a myth they use. He only looked that good because Tyson look like **** because he didn't do anything to change that because he didn't come to fight cause he wasn't in the shape he shouldn't of been in. And even if he was, he still wouldn't looked like the pre rooney Tyson cause he didn't have any competent trainers in his corner that new anything about boxing what so ever. All those factors played a big part. A pre Rooney Tyson demolishes Douglas and I don't care if Douglas's whole family died that gave him more movitavation. And a In shape Tyson would still knock douglas out. He might get hit a little more but he'd still be more active and energitic than the human walking corpse that Douglas fought.

    1. Did you just say Tyson vs Foreman would be similar to Trinidad vs Mayorga? :lol: Dude no offense but stfu. A prime Foreman was a beast point blank. Foreman size and power would be too much for Tyson. Tyson has never face any fighters in his prime that was dangerous as Foreman.

    2. I don't know about first round ko but i do think Tyson would ko Rocky badly.


    3. Tyson vs Frazier would have been a real good fight while it last but i think Tyson speed, headmovement along with power would be too much for Frazier.


    4. I think you underrated Ali cause in his prime Ali was truely one of the greats and i think his style he would trouble Tyson. Ali would use his speed , better footwork with ring gentlemenship and underrated real good punch to beat Tyson.



    5. I think Louis wins this one by ud.



    6. I think Lewis wins this one cause he's taller in which he will use his height to his advantage using his jabs in which he'll set up with a big right hand. Yes Lewis had Problems with Mercer but many great fighters have bad nights and i think Lewis wasn't really prepare in the Mercer fight cause all he think about was the Tyson showdown in which it didn't happen in 96.


    7. I think Tyson beats Dempsey as well.


    8. I think a prime Holmes would beat Tyson. Holmes in his prime was a beast like Foreman but Holmes had better skills with a great jab. Holmes size, great jab, power would give Tyson nightmares. (Tyson beat Holmes when Holmes was way past his prime)


    9. I think Tyson wins this one.



    10. This is a tough one. My guess is Tyson by decision in a close great fight.

    Tyson was in shape when he fought Dougles lol. Sure Tyson didn't prepare well vs Dougles but that is kind of a bad excuse and that don't mean Tyson wasn't in shape. Tyson still should have easily destroyed Dougles Cause Dougles wasn't even that good of a fighter for peepsakes but instead Tyson got his ass whooped badly.

    Your absoutly right Tyson fought bigger, stronger and better fighters than the Slow lumbering George Foreman. Infact Foreman wouldn't be able to hit Tyson with hand full of rocks, let alone make him blink. Foreman would get hit with shots he wouldn't even be able to brace for with the speed and power he would be getting hit with them.

    And sadly to say as shot looking Tyson looked in that fight, he argueably still won the fight from the long count. Douglas was down more than 10 secs. And Douglas had lots of talent with a good snapping jab and athletic but certainly wasn't better than Tucker,(who already beat Douglas at his best) Tubbs, Withersppon, Thomas, Spinks, or Holmes(even the 38 yr. old Tyson foought.

    :rofl This **** looks like someone who read a couple of comments on youtube would say. Just parroting a bunch of very general stuff :rofl.

    Of course with the "no offense but stfu". You know what they say, when someone says no offense, they are most likely going to offend you.

    Ring gentlemanship? Wtf is that? And from Ali? Lol.

    Good luck OP. :good

    It doesn’t matter.

    Douglas would get up faster if Ref would have count faster.
