    -Put down by morbidly obese Dustin Nichols with a "Check-Jab"
    --Put down by career loser Harold Sconiers
    --Built much of he career by beating sad corpses like Harrison and Lyakovich
    --Brought in personal friend Malik Scott to take an obvious dive
    --Did not fight the real champ for his "title" but a Don King manufactured Buffet champion
    --Knocked down by 2 Wlad jabs and out with one medium left hook in sparring
    --Destroyed and almost ktfo'd by Haye in sparring
    --Rocked heavily by a Firtha jab
    --Could not defeat Stiverne as convincingly as Demetrice King
    --Could not even knock Stiverne down like Rossy
    --Rocked heavily by a Firtha jab
    --Some of the most shameful opponents for his "title defenses" that the world has ever seen, showing his low self esteem
    --Rocked by Molina
    --He did not perform as well agasint Molina as Arreola OR ASHANTI JORDAN, both of whom knocked him out in 1
    --Eye busted up by Duhaupas, a French pastsry chef
    --Sold as a nice guy, but actually spends his time beating up hookers and Charlie Zelenoff, who are ironically his best opponents
    --Dispresects great fighters like Tyson and Klitscko
    --Now trying to claim that Fury's courageous win somehow makes him champion.
    --Avoiding Povetkin like the plague
    --Seems to be using a new tactic,probably to mask steroid use, of not allowing his pathetic opponents a full camp
    --Was considering Wawryck, knocked out in 3 by his mandatory, as an opponent
    --Offered a shot to Adamek, a shot to pieces 39 year old former LHW who is 1-2 in his last three, but only allowed him a 6 week camp.
    --Avoided Briggs and Bronco Billy Wright, shot fighters who carry AAP cards
    --Will fight an unemployed Soccer Hooligan named Szpilka? on 4 weeks notice, and will underpay him, overfeed him and *** him up

    Tyson for me...although I rate Him just in my Top 10 best Heavyweights there are People on here who Rate Him Number 1 and even Top 3 considering 5 of His 6 Losses were by TKo I would think you could say he had a suspect chin.!!!!

    5 of His 6 Losses by TKO suggest different....He had a good chin but it was suspect.!!!!

    Jeff Lacy. And this is not a shot at Joe Calzaghe either, but if you look at his resume pre-Calzaghe its a joke that he was rated so highly. It make's Wilder's or Grant's look like a murder row.

    The losses to Williams and McBride are irrelevant. He quit/gassed out.

    And he showed an iron chin in most of his losses anyway. Everyone can be knocked out after a certain point, and Douglas, Holyfield and Lewis had to throw everything at him to get him out of there. Hell, Tyson-Lewis is one of the best displays of an iron chin you'll find anywhere. Lewis had genuine one-punch KO power in his right hand and bombed out Rahman with a beautiful single combination the fight before, and it took him AGES to get rid of a drugged up corpse of what was once Tyson. That was one of the most vicious beatings I've seen a fighter sustain.

    David Haye is a good shout at HW no matter what his brain washed fans think. His name is still brought up to this day as if he's a big player in the division meanwhile he has done jack ****.

    Mousey may be the biggest hype job in all of sports. I've never seen such an aggressive media campaign to proclaim someone so mediocre as one of the greatest athletes of all time.

    Poor old Serena Williams must be think WTF!
