    Holyfield would have knocked him out in his prime. So would Lewis. Tyson on his best day would not have been able to beat either of these fighters.

    This.

    Louis is probably the most beautiful boxer to watch, ever.

    Tyson wasn't the only one, as far as heavyweights though he was probably the most artistic at his peak.

    I'm not so sure about that. Both had a skill set to beat Tyson, but Mike's incredibly quick reflexes and speed during his championship reign was pretty amazing. And sometimes even a small drop off in those skills made the difference between him being totally dominant, to being beatable by a select few.

    I agree. The way he slipped punches and wrecked havoc was amazing. I love watching Tyson fights, more so than any other.

    Agree. Loius was about as close to technical boxing perfection you'll ever see at HW. Sexually however, he doesn't do it for me.

    lol at 6.45. Just check how many security guards come to the ring, Tyson just had that aura.

    I'm not sure Beautiful is the word I would use to describe ANYTHING Mike Tyson related. But I don't think that Tyson is a top 3 ATG, perhaps not even top 3 ATG Heavyweight, I shoot for him to be above Marciano but behind Lennox Lewis.
