    Yes sure, all those knockdowns and stoppages he suffered from those shots.

    Ali could've whooped tyson in any way he felt like on any given night.

    Tyson was a solid B/B- fighter while Ali was A+ across the boards

    Tyson would break down before he entered the ring.

    Every man who had no fear of Tyson gave him issues...and Ali's chin is pure iron...

    :roll:

    Yes because that needs to have been the case to see that he was open to uppercuts and frequently stung by them.

    To be fair Tyson also claimed he'd lose to Dempsey.

    ...and Oscar said of Canelo prime for prime "he would have kicked my ass". :blabla

    Granted, Ali never promoted Tyson but still. Champions from different eras are usually respectful and deferential of each other.

    then perhaps you should reply to" Harold" quoting harolds post where he claims joe loses to everyone, since me personally I've never said joe loses to everyone.

    flopped again mate. why do you set yourself up for flops like that? no worries I give you another go - try replying to my above post again. The post where I completely accurately tell you that you claim joe beats everyone..becos YOU DO CLAIM IT again and again and again.
