    tyson would batter both.in a few years time people will appreiate just how good the young tyson was.
    with head and lateral movement allied to fast hands iron mike was one of the very best of all time

    i still maintain that Bonavena would do better than Quarry or Chuvalo vs Tyson.

    Bonavena would have had a real chance of going the distance with Tyson . Much more so than Chuvalo because George was more of a straight ahead type of fighter, and he was a bit stronger than Quarry.

    Agreed. See my OP.

    No mental strength whatsoever. As mentally fragile as a stack of cards.

    I'd give Asian Jimmy Young a chance, Tyson lost half of his fights in Asia. :bart
