Nothing against Tyson, but Spinks had no chance. Doesn't matter who was picking him. He was an over rated LH who was of no threat to Tyson at all.
Foreman beats Douglas.
Very biased against Joe Frazier. Joe never lost to Bonavena and soundly beat Quarry, Stander, and Chuvalo.
Yeah, I agree, ridiculous.
Tyson was never washed up, he just lost the desire. He was even questioned about the end of his boxing career dealing with age and Tyson said it...
Yeah, Ali was young.
Foreman tired himself out against Young. Young didn't "manhandle" George.
Frazier was never floored by Mathis or Cummings.
Good point about not bracing for impact.
The jumping in the air thing was odd. Must have been trying to catch his footing by instinct.
No way Foreman was over rated, just out-matched by a great boxer who was able to get Foreman out of there.
Yeah. Those years after '75 did Ali no good. It's amazing, considering his physical condition from all those wars, that he could still continue...
The age was never a factor with the later Tyson. He was even asked about it. It was the desire level.
Agree, George was definitely zeroing in on the title. It turned out to be Holyfield and, eventually, Moorer. Tyson wasn't in the picture after '90.
Well, in that regard, it would have been about the money and all the business that goes along with that, not about boxers being afraid of each other.
