    Some things would have had to change if so: like buster gets counted out. Holyfield gets dqd for headbutts in both fights, the Lennox Lewis fight would have happened earlier, this time Tyson would have to sustain the peekaboo for more than one round. Also it must be a pre Emanuel steward Lewis. And then in the twilight NO superheavyeeights!!! No McBride no Williams, instead feed him to James toney maybe Joe mesi before the smear campaign on him lol maybe a chris Byrd or a davaryl Wilson or a Monte barret. But no Tua! That would be a match makers dream but Tua may damage him in his prime.

    Tyson more than proved he was by cleaning out the division.
    And this is just hypothetical, so answer the question.

    No it’s all good.

    We have fantasy fights on here so why not have fantasy careers? Now the losses your hero got are turned into wins and fights that never happened are added to his fairytale resume so he can be considered even more awesomer!!

    I imagine most would rank him very highly. Especially if he had to go through Holyfield, Bowe, Lewis, Moorer and Foreman to get there

    Imagine if Tyson went to 100-0 (99 KOs) and finished his career knocking out Lennox Lewis in one round. How would he be remembered then?

    This is what this **** thread amounts to. Another Tyson circle jerk based on stuff that never happened lol I’m assuming you’re a grown adult and you made a thread like this. That’s really pathetic.

    Well what if hypothetically he also dropped down to 147 and 160 between heavyweight fights and cleaned out those divisions? And then went back in time and beat prime Roberto Duran at 135 in 42 seconds?

    I mean let’s not limit ourselves on Fantasy Island.

    Nice try. I can tell you’re heartbroken that I ruined you and your little friends Mikey utopia. Come to think of it Douglas, Holyfield, Lewis, Williams and Kev McBride (LOL) did that before me.

    The question is "what if Tyson wasn't Tyson". It's pointless thread.
