    Fact is, Mike could have fought him, instead he fought a lot of worst opponents than Sanders.

    Another fact is, Mike avoided southpaws throughout his entire career.

    do you have any proof Tyson avoided Sanders, as far as im concerned the fight was never discussed or on the table.

    Proof or stfu.

    you second point, Tyson avoided southpaws.

    Which southpaws did Tyson avoid, names please?

    it seems you have problems reading, ill say it again, Sanders had more in common stylewise to Tyson, than he did to Tony Tucker.

    schools over.

    The prime Douglas' chin (before Holy) was very good.Check his record and fights out !(Maybe the decent puncher primeTucker could knock James out
    by stamina problem.)
    I don't know his Mike White fight but maybe it was (or it wasn't) the only case/fight when he was down before the Tyson fight.
    This Tyson one punch(uppercut) knockdown was remarkable.
    I think after the Tyson fight Douglas had a strange health problem.
    Just a boxing re**** can say Douglas' chin was weak.
    The bum Nate Tubbs (Tyson's **** sparring partner) was to much
    for the prime Sanders.Nate destroyed him easily.
    His klitschko things haven't sport value because the klitschkos are/were
    the best fighters in a pathetic era.
    The prime Douglas was far better fighter than the klitschko " boxing twins".

    Seriously? A prime Tyson blows Corrie Sanders away. Sanders did not have the greatest chin. For goodness sake, he was knocked out by second-rater Hasim Rahman! :patsch

    Tyson would have destroyed him within a round or two. Tops.

    As was Lennox Lewis so no shame in being flash KOd by Rahman

    A b b billion times b b better than b b being b b battered down by a guy like Douglas

    Sanders punches like a mule, is arguably the better boxer, and as you know all too well Zak had the better chin ;)

    How would being a southpaw present any difficulties to Tyson, who could knock people out with either hand?

    And Tyson's sparring partner also starche'd Lennox ...Tyson would have had no problems with Sanders in his prime

    Thats been established. Southpaws were open to left hooks. Tyson's best punch.

    Style wise Tyson is all wrong for him and boxings all about levels Tyson was on a completly different level. Wladimir was green and for me even though he's great no Tyson.
