Lennox Lewis always beating Mike Tyson has become overatted

Almost every one of their common rivals claimed that Tyson was the better fighter in his prime, but it's hard to expect the average fan to disagree with what they saw in the ring. Tyson's defeats were always louder than his victories.

Generally, I agree with the author of the post.

 

Tua was slower than Tyson and his defence and footwork wasn't as sharp as Mike

 

It's interesting that both these legends never got up from a knockdown in their careers.

 

Lennox had everything to neutralize Tyson. It wouldn't be easy tho.

 

I think Lennox from 97 on beats any version of Tyson (minus the versions that showed up vs Rahman in the first fight and Vitali)

With that said it would be a great fight and Mike Tyson is certainly a live dog

 

Prime Tyson would have got on the inside and seriously messed Lennox up.

 

Tyson could struggle even at his best with taller opponents and Lewis was tall, big and good technically I just think he has the tools to disarm Tyson at leat 7/10
