    Tyson was a hell of a fighter in his prime.... there have been so many overrated fighters its hard to say. Pavlik in recent years has been proven to be overrated. In terms of all time overratedness you would have to say Rocky Marciano. His only noatble wins were against an ancient Joe Louis and Joe Walcott.... he fought in an abysmally weak heavyweight division.... Sonny Liston would have killed him, as would any of the top heavyweights from Ali's era.

    VERY SURPRISED! Would've thought Marciano's name would show up most.

    My sense is: the standard of excellence now is Mayweather -- the total opposite of The Rock.

    :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    Compared to the Klits, Tyson fought a who's who of HW boxing of the 20'th century, seriously :D

    Prime Mike Tyson would have torn this division to pieces, without a shadow of a doubt. We currently have 2 Klit brothers and between them they can't dominate, Tyson did that on his ****ing own :rofl:rofl:rofl

    For what it's worth, my most over-rated bum is Naseem Hamed, such a lot of kudos for doing absolutely **** all.
