Prime-Peak 1986 Tyson with proff. record of 19(19)-0, was in fight with a Grade C slick-boxer, a poor-man's version of Ali, a boxer called James Tillis. It a v.close fight - BUT i know in me boxing-brain Tillis did enough to win. Any-one who think Tyson has good chance against Ali need to watch this now And change there mind quick. My scorecards for teh fight - in rounds - 6-4 Tillis In points 95-94 Tillis [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXonmCpgpSw[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8QIjr0LYfY&feature=related[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezPh6oPu1z0&feature=related[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ckOFveObTQ&feature=related[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tN9hbohaf2I&feature=related[/ame] Plz leave comments about teh fight And your scorecards for it are what i really want too see.
any of you closet Tyson-bumlickers who voted for him gonna explane there votes, eh??? :think:think:huh
Tillis won a moral victory by going 10 rds with 19 year old Tyson in '86, but he fell short on points..... Tyson W 10 Tillis is right..... MR.BILL
Rewatched it and it wasnt even close. I don't count a few of those tapping uppercuts, some pushed punches and clinching as equal to the dozens upon dozens of thumping body shots, clipping hooks and even slightly off the mark right hands. The preponderance of offense was Tyson, though Tillis does get credit for showing a faint blueprint of what it will take to beat Mike. Still, he falls far short.
foreman why dont you put up the lewis mercer fight up for people to judge who won i thought a 36 year old mercer done enough to win yet a 42 year old holmes played with mercer .:hat
Foreman Hook is surely a joke poster. I don't think anyone could seriously say that a 1999 Holyfield would easily KO the "shot" Holmes who fought Tyson while ignoring that a prime Holyfield struggled to a decision over an even older Larry Holmes.
Tyson is still over rated..but maybe a bit underrated my foreman. But tills tyson was a damn close fight.
