    Trevor Berbick, Bonecrusher Smith, Pinklon Thomas, etc

    The majority of champions Tyson beat were journeymen that became champions at some point

    yeah, the level of competition was that bad

    Carlos "Tata" Baldomir.
    Bobby Joe Young, only man to beat Aaron Pryor and then win a IBF ww title against Simon Brown in 2 rounds.
    "The Surgeon" Frankie Randall would lose 18 times after upsetting JCC Sr.

    Interesting thread.

    Surprised so many journey men picked up championships. Goes to show perseverance pays off

    It was a poor performance from Nunn but he deserved to keep his belt

    He never won a title unless you count that WBU shitbelt he had for a couple of fight.
