    Because Meehan has the build and style of a Buster Douglas, Lennox Lewis or even Holyfield

    Stylistically he's closer too Chris.Byrd or Jimmy Young. And build doesn't matter. Tyson never had heart he was just a big bully who got beat any time someone stood up to him which Meehan would.

    Meehan KO 12

    Even Dempsey can't look him in the eyes.

    And Dempsey was a fierce man Tiger with nigh supranatural talents. What chance does a guy like Tyson have? (the answer its none)

    Great pic Seamus

    Build DOES matter, Douglas kept Tyson on the end of his jab as did Lewis, Holyfield (allegedly on steroids) used his size to bully Tyson around and clinch him into exhaustion.

    Guys with no physical advantages over Tyson were taken care of very early

    You can check boxrec, he disposed most of his smaller opponents very early, mainly in the first round.

    Meehan is not making it out of the first round

    Bah boxrec. I've seen tons of fights of Tyson. I've seen nothing of Meehan save some black and white photos. That should tell you all you need to know about who, would win.

    How silly of me, to even entertain the thought of a Tyson win

    Even Tyson himself has acknowledged Meehans greatness when he was talking about all the past great fighters.
