    Like usual we didn't realize how good we had it till it was gone, in the 80's and early 90's there was Holmes, Holyfield, Tyson, Lewis, Bowe, Golota. For a minute Byrd, Tua, and Iabuechi made things interesting. you could name alot of contenders that were capable that I left out. The only thing that ruined it for me was Ruiz. Holyfield carried him in their fights but I disliked watching that guy.

    I think Iron Mike takes out Arreola in 3.

    Well this may be the biggest mismatch in the history of ESB but I don't think either of these scenarios happens because of Arreola's Neanderthal skull. There's even a mathematical chance that Tyson could get frustrated after 3 or 4 rounds of smashing his hands into Arreolas Titanium head and lose confidence but this is a major mismatch 95% of the time. With that said I don't think either of these scenarios is likely to occur...:think

    I like Arreola, he`s a tough guy , so i`d give him 3 rounds on the poll! but i think he could last a couple rounds more

    I agree, guys Bert Cooper, Golota, Tucker, Bruno, Morrison, Mercer, Moorer and others were fun to watch, as for Ruiz, it was fun watching Roy, Toney and Haye embarrass him.

    Arreola doesn't make it past 30 seconds.

    Tyson did have crazy power but I think chris would last longer then 30 seconds! Remember chris lasted 11 rounds with vitali

    Depends on how well Arreola clinches.

    Didn't cliff couser drop him and hurt him in their short fight?

    Chris likes to mix it up and Tyson would brutalize him for it.

    Vitali is an arm puncher, who wears today's out of shape HWs down by constantly punching them, Wlad is the much harder puncher between the brothers. Tyson is one of the best punchers ever, he could throw any punch with either hand with KO power. He got great leverage on all his shots, didn't matter which hand he used, or whether it was a hook, uppercut, cross or overhand right. Other than Joe Louis, I can't think of a better all around puncher.
