    I voted Tyson based on the account that I like him better.

    Barrera. His resume is far better than Tyson's. And that's pretty much the end of that contest.

    I am going Tyson, he saved Heavyweight boxing. But if I had to really analyze I would give it to Barrera, he beat better fighters.

    I love young Tyson, but Barrera's resume is superior.

    Barrera by a wide margin... but I won't be surprised if by the end of this thread the fanboys make it a close contest.

    I think Tyson based on his dominance during his reign plus the fact that he has huge huge influence on many boxers that follow after his era.

    I have Tyson at 38 and MAB at 43.


    So I couldn't really argue either way. It's a tossup for me.

    I say this is one of those quandary type comparisons where u have one guy with the better resume and the other guy with the popularity with fan/mainline average person alike on board. Tyson rose above the sport, MAB excelled inside the sport. Tyson impact was such that his "personality" outshines MAB's resume
