Iron Mike Tyson...top ten wins! Name 'em

1) Spinks - this was a huge fight at the time, and Tyson swept him aside so easily that he doesn’t get the full credit for it.
2) Biggs - his most complete performance and actually showed patience. Essentially finished Biggs.
3) Holmes - Holmes boxed for years after that and no-one came close to flattening him.
4) Berbick - did the job at age 20, and Berbick had a good chin.
5) Thomas - he overcame a tricky start and had a great finish.
6) Bruno 2 - quicker and more clinical than first time.
7) Ribalta - relentless, high pressure performance.
8) Stewart - swept aside.
9) Ruddock 2 - a hard fight for both men.
10) Tubbs - TNT started well, ending was sudden.

 

I think Bruno 1 was a much more impressive fight than the rematch. Frank was really struggling with his demons by the second fight and looked a beaten man before entering the ring, something I'd never seen before. I kind of equate it to the Lewis McCall rematch, beating a man who really was only there in body, not in mind or spirit.

Tyson was there for the taking that night, he wasn't the same fighter Frank had a real fight with the first time round. I really feel fate dealt Bruno a particularly cruel blow in so many ways

 

Spinks
Holmes
Tucker
Bruno
Smith
Berbick
Ruddock
Thomas
Golota
Seldon

 

I'm very sorry, but can you explain to me what was so impressive about defeating the mortally scared Seldon, who was looking to escape from the fight with Tyson from the very beginning? what a great move Mike did there? knocking out Carek Williams in similar circumstances was impressive but Seldon??
As for Golota - I saw a terrible, frustrated, slow Tyson who would have lost every fight from Berbick to Ruddock if he had come out in such form.

 

Lol nothing is impressive about beating Seldon. He's bottom of my list.

 

The rematch can look more impressive because Tyson regained the title quicker than he defended it, cutting Bruno in the process with one punch and showing better defence in general.

 

Yup

 

Spinks
Holmes
Ruddock I
Ruddock II
Berbick
Tucker
Biggs
Thomas
Williams
Smith

 

But the topoc reads "Top 10 wins". He didn't win that one.

 

Good one, I'd say this is spot on.

 

Fair point, well made...

 

Could you please explain to me the point system that you’re using with the numbers ?
