Does Mike Tyson deserve to be in the hall of fame?

Yes.

/thread

 

That is like asking if Floyd deserves it.
I mean, he elbows opponents, he's suckered punched Ortiz almost dead, suckered Gatti and Mosley too. He talks more trash than a junkyard and really is an embarrassment for the sport outside of the ring, and dirty as hell inside the ring.:good

 

Well, two times world HW champion, 12 wins (10 ko's) in title fights, youngest HW champion ever... Dominated every opponent in his first 37 fights. If he doesn't deserve tell me who does...

 

No 1 HW of all time. Of course he deserves it.

 

Mike Tyson is bigger than the hall of fame and everyone in it.

(asides from Ali of course)

 

Tyson did more for this sport than you can imagine. You had to have lived through his era to realize how big he was.

 

I've never met people who don't know who is Mike Tyson. I'm not kidding.

 

Given where the bar is currently set for a heavyweight to get into the IBHOF, it would be almost impossible to argue the case against Tyson’s induction.

 

deal:deal
tyson influenced boxing more than every other boxer in history apart from ali. even people who don't follow boxing know about tyson he transcends the sport. he NEEDS to be in the HoF

 

Yea, Tysons were psychiatric patient worthy!

 

Tyson made more people WATCH boxing except made people scared to actually get into boxing them self.
It would take atleast 1 million to let him pound me in the ring.

 

He's the best boxer in the history of this sport .. how can't he be in the hall of fame??
