    That’s exactly how I see it.
    As Teddy Atlas used to say, Tyson’s problem wasn’t his opponents—Tyson’s problem was Tyson himself. Anyone in that group could have ended up like Tyrell Biggs, or like Buster. However, if we assume we’re dealing with the Tyson from the Berbick fight through to the Williams fight, he would likely go undefeated.

    To anyone who thinks Tyson loses a single fight here, please tell me to who and how. I'm genuinely curious cuz I cannot see it happening.
