    Tyson was a monster but calm down:).
    Lennox is top 3 ATG Tyson Top 10 , of course styles makes fights so in my opinion in 10 fights lennox takes 7

    I'll give you Holy but Golata was no world beater no matter when he fought either man .And if people want to bring up Douglas well there was Oliver McCall and Hasim Rahman ..But neither man's resume is leaps and bounds over the other ..

    Tyson was so fast no disrespect to Lennox but Tyson with his hands speed can connect on Lennox chin a lot more and Lennox's jaw isn't the best lol

    A prime Tyson couldnt stop a Smith or Tucker or Green or Tillis - But the same version would stop a peak ATG Lennox Lewis - And chin wise Tyson has been stopped more than Lewis and by Lewis and by someone Lewis beat..
    Tyson is good for a highlight reel , but once he was in against a certain calibre opponent, his ferocity was not enough and he had nothing else to offer by way of plan B

    Its a hard argument because Tyson 1st true test was Tillis who of course is a bootleg Ali impersonator but Tyson went the whole fight only knocking him down once and getting the decision . I have to lean on Lewis .
