1975 v Frank Bruno 1996

I score it 6-6, and rate them overall very similar....I find a lot of comparrisons between the 2 (not necesarily in style)

Frazier 11 title fights from mathis to Foreman 10 ( 8 )-1
Tyson 11 title fights from Berbick to Douglas 10 ( 8 )-1

Frazier as unified recognized champ Ellis to foreman 6 title fights 5 (4)-1
Tyson as unified champ 8 fights tucker-douglas 7(6)-1

Frazier as linial champ 4 fights from Ali-Foreman 3 (2)-1
tyson as linial champ 4 fights from spinks to douglas3 (3)-1

I don't see much seperating them and rank them on the same 7-10 tier...Frazier by a hair and perhaps that is only a Philly Bias. I think they are very comprable!

 

:dealGood post which i got to agree with. Like has already been said i think it's the Ali fights that seperate them.

4-8, Edge to Mike Tyson.

Tyson's quality of opponents wasn't comprised of superstars but they were formidable fighters and IMO much better than Frazier's. Ali is a signature win but the depth really goes to Tyson which is why I rank him ahead.

 

i have it prety even.

positively certain. My feelings for the man have previously stated reasons , yours don't. Should I speculate about yours and Bokaj's ?
