I wanted to stay with HWs, as Tyson was one og those. Marciano is very close to this at his weight devision with 87.76% KO! Nevertheless, eight of...
The mentioned fighters primes: Tyson 35-0 (31) Foreman 40-0 (37) Louis 58-1 (50) WIlder 41-0 (40) Gonna add that in my post prior.
Talking about Tyson, one thing should be kept in mind: There are as far as I know only four HWs who brought a KO-run like that: George Foreman,...
He often gets criticised for winning just two title fights. Should he´ve gotten a shot to the title earlier, making it more defenses? Why did...

Tyson was a product of regularity. The time frame he fought three times after Spinks (Bruno, Williams and Douglas) equals the rest of his whole...

Its pretty tough. I´d say Thomas, Tucker (durability) or Tubbs (speed). Spinks and Biggs both lacked durability @HW, while Biggs of course had...

@choklab : The Douglas fight came 8 months after Williams, the longest inactivity adding the Bruno bout. Tyson fought Tucker two months and a day...
Wow. Do you consider Spinks H2H as the best Tyson win (hiding out the way he lost) ? Better HW than the rest of the field Tyson fought? @Jamzy ⭐...
