    Well outside those 2 fights, what is his claim to fame?

    Tyson was and is still a globally revered figure all over the world. Does anyone know Joe Frazier globally or remember him?

    So basically Tyson feasted on alcoholics and crack heads during his reign, nice of you to admit that Sandra....

    Definitely Frazier. 67 to 71 arguably the greatest run in history.

    I have told you a million times not to exaggerate.

    All the more reason Tyson deserves zero credit for beating yet another junkie.

    From you? Nah.

    He doesn't need one. As stated his trilogy with Ali cemented both of their legacies.

    Are you on crack? For every moron who " reveres " Tyson globally there are more voyeurs hoping he self destructs to the point where he either kills someone else and gets life, or even the death penalty, or kills himself. He was considered to be a walking freak show. Revered my ass.

    It doesn't matter how many times you ask the same question, the answer will not change. He will always be inextricably linked to the most famous fighter EVER. Similarly " Enery " Cooper will never be forgotten in Britain because of the left hook that dropped Clay, and the controversy ( that wasn't ) surrounding it. Now take the world as the setting as opposed to just Britain, and you just might get why Frazier will be remembered.

    In any event he will not be forgotten, which was your original moronic claim.

    As opposed to Lennox Lewis getting beaten by a junkie? Or the credit Lennox Lewis gets for beating Tyson's leftover junkies?

    Is this a joke? I have throw in the towel if this debate were a fight.:lol:

    If Tyson has an edge in world wide fame it may be due to the fact that he *****ed out in one of his biggest fights. REMEMBER THAT IDIOT THAT WAS GETTING HIS ASS KICKED AND BIT THAT FIGHTERS EAR OFF? Not all fame is good kid.

    Actually he didn't want to quit the fight, he wanted the fight to continue, Mills lane had other ideas.

    Frazier had a better career, but Tyson at his best would get in that ass and probably stop him in 2 or 3.

    Or forcing the same junkie to cry like a baby and turn his back on him. Destroying the pretender Ruddock in 2. Biggs in 3 as opposed to 7. First man to drop Tucker. Capped off with KTFO the stumpy little junkie kunt Tyson.

    Yep that's Lennox Lewis. Beat EVERY man he ever faced, shame you can't say the same for your rap!st hero. :lol::lol::lol:

    Tyson never got KO'd in 2 by a single shot of smack from a junkie. That poor chin, getting wrecked by a junkie C level sparring partner to Mike Tyson. And that would be McCall's ONLY claim to fame, wrecking Lennox's tissue thin mandible. And to think it only took McCall 4 minutes to pull it off!!!
