20 reasons Tyson is not top 20 ATG

You forgot Audley Harrison and David Haye

 

you're not serious right? I love ROy, but he gets knocked out within 8 rounds and I know that sounds bold and kinda dumb, but not when it comes to Mike Tyson

 

8 rounds? That's 7 rounds 2 minutes and 59 seconds maximum more than I give him.

 

:yep I was gonna say 4 or less, but who knows it's Roy

 

Mike was a way better fighter than Tua although in a brawl Tua has the slightly better chin,, But Prime Mike was a good boxer had defensive skills and was waaaay faster than Tua.,,, I think he means the Prime Tyson,, Prime Bowe probably beats the post prison Tyson, but dont think the prime one.... I know what your thinking that Toney might be too slick and frustrate Tyson, but i dont think he has the power at heavy to slow down a prime Tyson or get his respect.. Toney beat some solid heavys but no one close to someone with Tysons speed and Power.. Peter could punch but no where as sharp as Tyson . Mike would also be coming at him 10X faster.

 

:yep

 

Prime vs Prime at heavyweight
James Toney = Tyson by late round stoppage
Kevin McBride = Tyson by early round stoppage
Ali (about 1967) = Tyson by clear decision
Foreman = Tyson by late round stoppage
Vitali = Tyson by mid round stoppage
Buster Douglas = Tyson by close decision (Tyson may have been young but not priom when they met.)
Holyfield = Tyson by late round stoppage
Rocky Marciano = Tyson by mid round stoppage
Joe Louis = Louis by close but clear decision
Sonny Liston = Tyson by late round stoppage
Larry Holmes = Tyson by early round stoppage
Lennox Lewis = Lewis by clear decision
David Tua = Tyson by early round stoppage
Ike Ibeabuchi = Tyson by early round stoppage
Danny Williams = Tyson by early round stoppage
Joe Frazier = Tyson by late round stoppage
Riddick Bowe = Bowe by clear decision
Ron Lyle = Tyson by late round stoppage
Roy Jones Jr = Tyson by late round stoppage
Jack Johnson = Tyson by close decision.

 

it's funny how people post this crap but jones was a 2 to 1 favorite over tyson after the ruiz win. sure jones wouldn't have beaten a young tyson but when they almost fought, jones would have likely been the favorite and imo won an easy decision over mike. tyson was good for only a couple of rounds then, ask danny williams.

 

You're a ****ing idiot .... Prime Tyson beats almost everyone on that list. Jesus H Christ, you honestly believe Roy Jones would beat a prime tyson? Ron Lyle would hit nothing but air , and then eat vicious combos ... I am not even going to bring up some of the other names you listed...you obviously don't know **** about boxing.

 

STFU, Close Thread!!

 

Tyson was overrated!

 

lol...

 

I notice you picked Tyson in alot of late round stoppages, actually he did score too many late round kos... Im a huge Tyson fan and i even pick him over some of the guys you picked to beat him (lewis.Louis and maybe Bowe) but he became very ordinary and seemed to lack the same fire in the late rounds.... WHat makes you think he would ko Holyfield late? I actually pick Holyfield but if Tyson pulled this out it would be early or mid rounds..... Cant see Fraizer-Tyson going long sure be a helluva fight but it would last long.. How could it?
