Peak Mike Tyson Vs Peak George Foreman

Did you mean compared to Foreman, or Tyson? If former then it's not true, let's compare all of Tyson opponents from his so-called prime (1986-89):

1974 Foreman vs Norton: 6'3, 224 lbs and 78.5' reach

David Jaco: 6'6, 210 lbs and - reach
Mike Jameson: 6'4, 236 lbs and 79' reach
Jesse Ferguson: 6'2, 211 lbs and 77' reach
Steve Zouski: 6'0, 210 lbs and 74' reach
James Tillis: 6'1, 208 lbs and 80' reach
Mitch Green: 6'5, 225 lbs and 82' reach
Reggie Gross: 6'3, 218 lbs and 78' reach
William Hosea: 6'1, 215 lbs and 75' reach
Lorenzo Boyd: -, 198 lbs and - reach
Marvis Frazier: 6'0, 210 lbs and 76' reach
Jose Ribalta: 6'5, 211 lbs and 80' reach
Alfonzo Ratliff: 6'4, 201 lbs and - reach
Trevor Berbick: 6'2, 219 lbs and 78' reach
James Smith: 6'4, 233 lbs and 82' reach
Pinklon Thomas: 6'3, 218 lbs and 77' reach
Tony Tucker: 6'5, 221 lbs and 82' reach
Tyrell Biggs: 6'5, 229 lbs and 80' reach
Larry Holmes: 6'3, 226 lbs and 81' reach
Tony Tubbs: 6'3, 238 lbs and 79' reach
Michael Spinks: 6'2.5, 212 lbs and 76' reach
Frank Bruno: 6'3, 228 lbs and 82' reach
Carl Williams: 6'4, 218 lbs and 85' reach

Number of fights: 22
Opponents heavier than GF: 7
Opponents with longer reach than GF: 13 (assuming numbers for Jaco and Ratliff)
Opponents with both advantages: 7

If the latter, then of course Tyson almost always fought against fighters with longer reach, but he outweighed his opponents quite often actually (13 times out of 22).

 

I was talking about Tyson facing bigger opponents than himself, not bigger than Foreman.

 

Still, he usually outweighed his opponents during that time.

And conversely, that means I’m with you.

Certainly, excellent posters like yourself have previously covered off on all these aspects.

For all the deep analysis’, this is ONE we all would love to have seen - paper forecasts will only take us so far - as boxing history has proven over and over - hidden or over-sighted variables often pop up - that’s the beauty of the actual proofs being borne out in the ring, perfectly real, not imagined or hypothetically calculated. .
