    Lot of people saying Tyson but what challanges do they see for him in todays HW divison? Or do they just want him to KO his way through everybody?

    Mike Tyson, with Kevin Rooney as trainer and no involvement with Don King.
    I would most like to see him conquer David Tua, Chris Arreola, Alexander Povetkin, David Haye and the Klits.
    Toppling the giant Valuev could be interesting too.

    Ken Norton for the heavys, and for him to fight wlad klitschko


    julio cesar chavez from "93", and for him to fight mayweather


    and felix trinidad from "2000" to fight against pacquio

    Hands down Tyson.

    I'd want to see how he would fair in every decade if he was prime. I think he cleans up but whoooo there would be some great clashes. Salivating just thinking of it.

    good question , but i think pac would stop tszyu also.
    i would bring the prime james toney to regain the 168 crown , and the prime leonard to try to take on pac at 147.
    robinson will have to be the choice against williams at whatever weight.
    i may have many more ideas.

    There are NO CHALLENGES!!!!!!!! We are talking about a prime focused Tyson. It will be like watching a Ferrari race a pack of festiva's! It would be beautiful watching the blood and teeth fly! Watching the giant white goofballs fall like tree's.:hat

    Hearns at Welterweight today would be amazing. Hearns against Mayweather and Pac then going up and fighting the likes of Williams and Pavlik would give me an erection.
