    How much different was the 96 Tyson that fought Holyfield than the one that fought Lennox in terms of ability?

    A fair bit. Mike was still moving his head some, jabbing (Holy II) etc and putting together combinations (Bruno).

    96 Tyson KO2 02 Tyson. Tyson was AWFUL in the Lewis fight. He had absolutely nothing left as prizefighter. Tyson in 96 would still have beaten almost anybody except Lewis, Holyfield, or possibly Bowe.
