They may do, but they didnt. Ali did, hence why hes the greatest of all time. Vitali came back and yes won the title off Peters, i give him all the credit for that. But Peters wasnt worthy of carrying Foremans spit bucket.
Correct. At the time I was amazed that so many thought Tyson was the same devastating force that he was circa 1987/88. A lot of casual fight fans thought that I needed a liedown in a darkened room when I predicted that,after Tyson burned out early in the fight,Lewis would take over and stop Tyson between the sixth and tenth rounds.
I honestly didn't know very many people at all who favored Tyson going in against Lewis in 2002. The few who did, only did so because of Lennox's brush up with Rahman, but most knew Tyson was shot.
If Lang was overrated, old Rocky should have been able to deal, and he couldn' t.It took the help of Apollo Creed to seal the deal:good.
I taped a documentary the night just before the fight, throughout the film, all the highlights they used for Tyson, were all highlights from fights when he was 18-21. They showed none of his post prison or recent fights So im not surprised people thought Tyson would win
