Does Mike Tyson come into your TOP 10 Heavyweights of all time?

Come on man, Tyson had ONE good performance after prison, and it was against Bruno, and even then, as powerful as he was, his skills(bar the finishing salvo which was awesome), were horribly erroded. He was just looking for right hand bombs. He didnt move his head AT ALL, which for a fighter with his style is suicide.

Holyfield beats single punch bombers always, he NEVER beats the animal who annihalated Berbick, Holmes, Thomas etc.
Holyfields whole legacy at heavyweight, which propels him into a LOT of top tens, are his wins over Tyson, who was done. All he retained from his first reign was power. The quickness, ferocity, and defence, all gone.
Bowe beat Holy twice, with proper prep woulve been 3.
Lewis beat him twice, Moorer.
I cant see how minus the Tyson win and DQ, he's ever a top 10 heavyweight.
Nobody ever thought of him ever, up alongside the best ever. Tyson was universally until it all unravelled.
Tyson deserves to be ranked above Holyfield.

 

Because Rocky was undefeated, and never got blasted out by a semi retired golfer, or collapse like v Brewster, or look like Bambi on ice everytime Sam Peters swipes got anywhere near him??
Wladimir has done fantastically to get to where he is, but I think against any fighter with real ferocity, he's a dead man walking.
I think Tyson, Liston, Foreman even if he found Lewis in a Mike Grant type mood hes sparkled quickly.

 

Yes, i am biased and love Tyson and his style, but also firmly believes he belongs there. His career is very what if, and lots of people forget he used a condom filled with ice water as a cold compress in the douglas fight, he must've had a great gameplan...

Ali
Louis
Holmes
Marciano
Foreman
Tyson
Lewis
Holyfield
Johnson
Frazier

 

Lewis he was past his best and moorer? YDKSAB if you think that was a legitimate loss

 

There's not that many good HW'S overall compare to MW and WW. So probably 10-13.

 

There are plenty of GREAT Heavyweights; you are just unfamiliar with them.
