    Well, he has an argument for being the fastest. Not sure anyone ever argued he was the strongest.

    It also worked on Mike Spinks. And no one came close to beating Holmes like Mike did, not even years later when Larry did well enough to get a title shot.


    Please inform which cab companies Bruno, Berbick, Spinks, Tubbs, Holmes, Thomas, Bruno, Ruddock, Botha, Biggs. Golota, Seldon and Botha worked for.



    Quarry and Binavena were great champs. You are correct there.

    Tyson started badly against Thomas? Lol Tyson started like a runaway train and gave Thomas one hell of a beating in the first round.Thomas showed a great chin but was still lucky to survive the round.

    I love how he called Tillis a Bum in this thread and used the 17 losses at the time Tillis as a good opponent for Morrison in another thread.

    First he is not in top 3 but maybe in top 5 fastest!Ali,Patterson,Holyfield,Dempsey,Tunney were faster!
    Against Spinks?Washed ex LHW who skipped CW and was scared shitless and was disgrace!
    Yeah no one came close but Shavers knocked him very scary but ehat about Snipes?
    Tyson beat old Holmes unprepared who came after 2 years layoff!He went decision with Holyfield but still he was atleast very well mentally and physically prepared for that fight!Tyson won because Larry came mentally crushed,unprepared just went there for payday!And went 5 rounds!Holmes was so bad he even didn't use his jab right!Holmes challenged Mike again when he was prepared!It was first fight after 2 years and Holmes was rusty
    Also many Tyson fans things he is the strongest!
    Those you mentioned are cab drivers!Is anyone of all you mentioned are HOFamer?
    Bruno=scared shitless and weak chin
    Berbick=bum beaten by Douglas and low energy Holmes!Made his name fighting sick Ali!
    Spinks=washed,scared LHW with weak chin!
    Seldon=fix fight everyone knew that and Tyson ducked Lewis and fought Sledon isntead even paid 5 millions to not fight Lewis!
    Tubbs=weak chin made his name as Holmes sparng partner
    Pinklon Thomas=beaten by Tillis,Holyfield and Bowe much easier than Tyson and Morrison knocked him in 1st rounds says alot!
    Ruddock=weak chinned and one handed fighter who Tyson fight instead of Foreman and Holyfield whom Morriosn knocked in 6 and Lewis in 3 rounds!
    What about these contenders much better than Tyson opponents Tyson didn't goight and ducked!
    Old Foreman,Mercer,McCall,Page,Ike,Tua,Bowe,Snipes,Weaver,Whiterspoon...and list goes on!
    Tyson fought only worst contenders washed,scared or old!
    He could fight even better fighters in 80s but he didn't!
    Like he fought Douglas instead Holyfield!
    And like he fought Seldon and washed Bruno instead Lewis!

    Have you actually watched the first round of the Thomas fight for yourself?

    Antman, you gotta stop going on YouTube and watching these so called expert online fight analysts posting videos where they dissect every second of every round and put out their opinions of what the fighters were thinking at the time, What they should have been thinking, what they should have done and what they didn’t do.

    Sometimes you just gotta watch the whole fight yourself and make up your own mind on how you think the fight went and not Just let others tell you and make your mind up for you.

    I have to admit that was actually fairly clever. I chuckled, anyway.

    Mercer only fought the elder Klitschko. According to Chris Byrd Wlad hit harder.

    Edit: Oh, ****, it was actually Wlad that Mercer fought. I'd have been willing to bet decent money it was Vitali.

    Yeah ok guy, you argued with me in another thread that Tillis was not shot when he lost to Morrison and acted like it was some great win. Your act is tiresome.

    Tillis a bum who Shavers couldn’t knock out either. Jesus. Tillis was a bum by the time Morrison got to him.

    I’ve told you multiple times I’m NOT a Tyson fan. But you never listen you just continue to spout bs.

    No I didn't said it was great win and Tillis wasn't bum but that Morrison amd Spoon dod that much better than Tyson!
    Old Shavers couldn't knock him!
    Shavers was good betwen 1974 and 1980!
    42 years old Sahvers beat Simms in 1st round which even Tyson couldn't!

    Crazy, isn't it?

    Some posters do the same about Foreman as well, I've heard. ;)

    Idiot you are *******!
    I'm talking about Larry Simms!
    Moron Tyson knocked Simms in 3 rounds and 42 years old Shavers needed only 1 round!
