Mike Tyson: The most overrated of all time

not ****ing at all. Tyson destroyed the division, and beat several very good fighters. his dominance, in his prime, is second to none. The only fighter that compares in the heavyweight division is Marciano. nobody else comes close. If Anythin he's probably underrated right now. but mike was such an elite fighter- combos, awesome power, speed, durability, headmovement, bodyshots, EVERYTHING wa there. he was one of a kind

 

I'm talking about how dominant they were during their vicious careers. Tyson only lost when he was significantly past it or undertrained. marciano never did. I say they do compare in dominance

 

No. Oscar is the most overrated. followed by SRL.

 

If you havent heard,Calzaghe has already own this title for a while already

SORRY

 

nah, casual fans over-rated muhammad ali more than than they do tyson

 

talk absolute shite

 

Tyson actually showed many weaknesses even in his early career.

 

yeah you're right. that's one of his big downfalls. but in his prime I question if he would ever lose to Douglas I don't think so. I think he was significanty past it with holy. I didn't see the same combos or speed

 

You forgot Larry Holmes and Michael Spinks, always convenient that.

Youngest HW champ ever, undisputed champ for 3 years and regained the title after a long layoff despite all the crazy **** that was going on in his life.

Thankfully there's plenty of people around who remember just how dominant he was in his prime. He is easily a top 10 ATG HW and head to head probably a top 5 ATG HW.

Over-rated, **** no.

 

no way is Ali top 6 ATG

 

Tyson is an ATG but I also think people tend to overrate him because of his fame/persona. He also didn't tear through every opponent with ease, people seem to forget about his opponents like Quick Tillis and the likes, he was beatable by tall, strong opponents who weren't afraid of him.
