What's you guys opinion on Mike Tysons all time ranking?

Discussion in 'World Boxing Forum' started by Canibus81, Nov 24, 2010.


  1. according to his career mike tyson very hardly would be top 10 hws. ali,louis,foreman,frazier, marciano,holyfield,holmes,jonhson,jefries,dempsey,lewis are above tyson.

    i did pick Mike Tyson only ranks high in prime vs prime head to head matchups .

    but he never was tested in his prime against a prime legend.
     
  2. i agree absolutely

    This is the problem with Tyson... it's all if, buts and maybes.
    As for your point in this post i think you are talking bollocks. It was an era when a 38 year old shot Holmes and the Light Heavyweight Champion were Tyson's best wins... the era was ****, possibly the worst ever

    ATG, no question. I have him just outside the top ten at HW, below Holyfield, but ahead of Lewis.

    BUT - it not teh worst era IMO, teh Klit-Bros era is full of even shittier, **** ****ing tomato-can fatty bum, bums.

    Wlad best 2 wins =
    1 - Natural Super-Middlewieght Chris Byrd
    2 - Natural Cruiser Eddie Chambers (poor-man's Tony Tubbs)

    Vitali best 2 wins =
    1 - 38 yr Old, part-time boxer, golfer, Bum Corrie Sanders
    2 - 25lbs Overweight, obese taco-bell mascot, Chris Arreola.

    :rofl:rofl:rofl

    He's talking about ATG list... not H2H. A fighters place in the ATG list is defined by career achievement.
     
  11. o yes, lewis had better career and he avenged his defeats, and lewis destroyed tyson but yes.. tyson is above lewis :nut

    This Era is really bad but then in Tysons era a 38 year old Foreman could come back from a 10 year lay off and string together 24 stoppage wins...
