    Probably Bowe - Tyson.

    Otherwise I'd like to have seen Holyfield vs Marciano.

    From a hater's point of view I'd have loved to have seen a prime Tyson in with a prime Holyfield, Lewis and Bowe.

    Even though Tyson was past his best when he fought Evander and Lennox - so were they.

    Then there would be no excuses. I spent nearly an hour telling my Tyson fanboy mate that he wouldn't have had a chance with Holyfield - it just didn't go in at all.

    ''Holyfield was a blown up cruiserweight''

    ''Tyson would have been best heavyweight ever if......

    -------

    Yeah - Tyson would have been best heavyweight ever if he had bothered to train properly, had a better mental makeup, didn't go to jail, and beat great fighters in their prime.

    So would I for ****s sake. So would you!

    Grrrrr.....
