Fighters with weak resumes whom you rate highly head to head

Herol Graham.

 

Rodrigo Valdez

 

Bob Foster

 

Yes

 

Relatively speaking: Tyson, Bowe, and Holyfield at heavyweight. A bunch of the best fighters of the past 30 years (Floyd, Duran, Pacquiao, Shane, DLH) have weak resumes at 140 but would fare well agains anyone there.

 

Golovkin and Kovalev...

Aaron Pryor?

 

The two best examples are Pryor and Foster. Neither had a great resume, but in terms of head-to-head you can argue that no junior welter beats Pryor, and you can argue that no light heavy beats Foster.

I wouldn't lump Tyson in with them. When you consider how PATHETIC the division is today, and then look at Tyson's 80s reign, you see that Mike's resume is actually underrated.

Current heavyweights by in large have ZERO talent. Tyson fought a number of durable, talented guys who never reached their full potential, but DID have a lot of ability - and he destroyed them.

 

I think only Ali's and maybe Holyfield's resume better than
Tyson's.
Lennox Lewis' resume is the most overrated.
He never beat a prime good or a decent unbeaten fighter without
lucky circumstance.

jack dempsey

 

talent pool has dropped in every weight division i believe

 

Gennadiy Golovkin
Saul Alvarez

that's two current

 

Corrie Sanders. He couldn't get the big fights till Wlad, but if he had, he would have won a lot more of them than people think. I keep thinking back to Botha vs Tyson, and thinking that if Sanders had been there that night Tyson would have been carried out on a stretcher.
