    Tyson would have beaten Holyfield, but probably not Lewis, still, Tyson in his prime would have had a chance, but Don King destroyed him.

    I really enjoyed watching his fights. He was exciting, unlike Void.

    Lewis barely beat Holyfield in their 2nd fight, no way Lewis beats the Holyfield who KO'd Douglas.

    Lewis is the most overrated Heavyweight of all time.

    everything is about Floyd Mayweather to you, isn't it? I bet you wake up hating on Floyd and go to bed hating on Floyd, whenever you eat you are hating on Floyd and whenever you shower you are hating on Floyd. I bet those two years of retirement really ****ed with you.

    Lewis was and is the king. You really think Lewis ahd his best day in the 2nd Holyfield fight?

    Lewis schooled Holyfield in the first fight, beat Holyfield just in the second fight because he took Evanbder too lightly after demolishing him in the first.

    And noway does any version of Tyson ever beat Lewis, unless he caught Lewis with a lucky shot Lewis dominated Tyson every day of the week

    :lol: It doesnt take a rocket scientist to realize that no one could have beat a tyson in his TRUE prime. Im not talkin about the tyson who fought douglas. Tyson in his true prime when he was the best boxer of all time coulld have beat a prime lewis, ali, holmes, foreman, klitschkos, and he would have destroyed buster douglas. Now I know its a bunch of if that and if this. But he was a monster. Any of those guys wouldnt know what to do. He was the fastest, strongest,intemidating, and the most powerful boxer that ever lived. Its a shame it went down like it did.
    Its a shame he didnt beat danny williams because that would have done wonders for his confidence. I dont know why his management didnt line up some bums to fight so he could get his footing back. just like foreman did and most fighters that are on the comeback trail. His first fight back shouldnt have been against a champ like williams.

    One more thing I believe tysons greatness comes from the fact that his trainer was oldschool. One of the best of all time. He was given the boxing knowledge of the past. Tyson wouldnt have been what he was if he had a new school trainer. I watch his training films in awe. He was a great student. Most people think he was a head hunter. He was a technical fighter. His body shots were under rated. I guess im saying he wasnt just power and anger. Just my opinion

    Tyson was scary in his prime, there really was a sense of danger and excitment, we could use a prime tyson now

    Considering how he got ripped off by the judges, one would have thought he would have been highly motivated to not only win the rematch, but not leave it to the judges again.

    Or Evander was off his game in the first fight, and the second fight sees Lewis barely beating a way past his prime Holyfield.

    Get real.

    Do you really think the 2003 Tyson was anything like the 1988 Tyson?

    McCall and Rahman and a 37 year old Holyfield showed that Lewis is nothing special.
