    Look at Tua's neck, he was also regarded as the one who never can be floored, till Monte did the unthinkable. Tua was battered and tired and Monte might've finished him if he wasn't admiring the KD as the highest achievement in his career.

    The thing is Toney is like covered in bananapeels, the punches are like sliding of him, but I think Tyson could peel that fat banana :D

    Pure HORSE ****!

    Tyson couldn't knock out James Bonecrusher Smith, Tony Tucker, Mitch Green, James Tillis, (all from Tyson's "prime" mind you) ducked Tim Witherspoon, Evander Holyfield in the late 80's, Riddick Bowe, Big George Foreman, in the 90's and didn't even want to fight Michael Dokes in the late 80's for crap sakes.

    What a bunch of ****ing unrealistic horse ****.

    I found it funny how since toneys mma debut people seem to forget how great a fighter toney was. you dont get fighter of the year twice, almost decades apart by fluke!

    the question shouldnt be 'can tyson knock toney out'

    the question should be 'who is most likely to win by ko'

    because toney is no slouch and can hit without being hit,...ask holyfield.

    Apart from the fact toney has a cast iron chin, he has great defensive and counter punching skills. an in-shape james toney posseses a threat for any tyson, prime tyson, post prison tyson, mcbride tyson tyson fury who ever.

    bad style match up for tyson. on top of that i think tyson would lose heart after a few rounds unlike toney who seems to grow with confidence as the fight goes on.

    Tyson ain't never duck Witherspoon, spoon got TKO'ed by bonecrushersmith. Had he won, the fight would of happen and witherspoon would of gotten his head knocked off just like the rest of the 80's heavyweights. And Tyson did stop Ribalta, maybe you should watch the fight again. Not only that Ribalta had a cast iron jaw.

    Yeah I typed that up real quick without double checking my memory. Everyone knows that Tyson fought guys at the right time and the heavyweight division was down in the mid to late 80's. The guy that Tyson should have fought was Evander Holyfield, and you are really gonna tell me that a guy who got his clock cleaned by Buster Douglas, during Tyson's prime, would knock out any heavyweight in boxing history? HORSE ****!

    Well, ever heard of adding water to the wine? By doing these kinds of (MMA) freak shows and fighting his last fights against mediocre fights against B-level opposition at HW (Batchelder WHO, Greer WHO, shot Rahman,...) + claiming you are still the best and that Klit are ducking you... He is destroying his wine gradually... He should hang 'm before it's all water...

    Douglas got lucky. Tyson came in the worst shape of his life and Mike already beatin 4 heavyweights better than Douglas, so could you blame for underestimating him.

    As for Holyfield, he wouldn't beat a prime Tyson either. He caught Tyson at the right time and he was even a ranked heavyweght by the time Tyson cleaned out the division.

    Tyson was a beast theres no doubt but he does not hit harder than Liston Foreman shavens ect. Tyson couldnt knockout James Tillis who was knocked out by Lewises countryman and later opponant undefeated Gary Mason. Bonecrusher smith he was 6 4 he was a decent mover and was good at using his height tyson couldnt get a lick on the guy all fight and he wasnt throwing anything. Can u imagine what Ali would have done to this guy? people undestimate how strong and big ali was..

    Douglas was terribly out of shape for this fight, holyfield didn't get the same douglas mike got, and if you think that you need to go back and watch both fights and do a comparison of douglas in the ring and look at his body for christ sakes.

    More ****ing excuses, more ****ing excuses, just admit that at night when you bow your head and close your eyes you pray to Mike ****ing Tyson as your god, admit it.

    THE SAME LAME OLD ASS EXCUSE THESE TYSON FANS HAVE BEEN MAKING FOR ****ING YEARS BECAUSE BACK WHEN EVANDER KNOCKED BUSTER OUT CLEAN A LOT OF THE BOXING EXPERTS WERE SAYING "SEE THIS IS WHY TYSON HAS BEEN AVOIDING EVANDER". EVANDER WAS TOO ****ING GOOD FOR TYSON AND I SUPPOSE YOUR NEXT EXCUSE IS THAT BUSTER DOUGLAS WAS ON STEROIDS WHEN HE FOUGHT TYSON BUT FORMED A RARE BONE DISEASE IN BETWEEN THE TYSON AND EVANDER FIGHTS. WHAT THE LIVING ****?! ACCEPT THE FACT THAT TYSON WAS NOT UNBEATABLE AND HE COULDN'T KNOCK GUYS OUT AT WILL WHO HAD A BEATING HEART IN THEIR CHESTS.
