Tyson was basically the Heavyweight Jeff Lacy

I don't dissagree there. Lacy wasn't even dominant at the lower levels, one of the most hyped lacking substance fighters of recent years.

 

Ill repeat Holmes was pushing 40 and hadnt fought in 2 years.

Spinks made his name as a light heavy. It would be similiar to Wald beating Adamek.

Bruno was a good fighter,a good decent world level fighter. Douglas and Bruno would be on the same level. Douglas was actually a better fighter than people gave him credit for. Douglas bgeat McCall, and Brunos defining win was a vistory against McCall.

Holyfield beat him twice, Lewis beat Holyfield twice(Even though he was robbed once for a draw) so i dont beleive Holyfield was the best of that generation. Lewis was. Bowe had beaten Holyfield twice at that stage as well.
Tyson was a good champion, he wasnt a "freak" he was a good and exciting champ who came about in a weak era.

Good highlight reel footage.

And? THe only fighter Holmes had lost to was Spinks. And nobody dominated Holmes and Spinks like Tyson did.

Please dont compare Spinks to Adamek. Spinks ended the reign of one of the greatest heavyweights ever. Who has Adamek beaten in comparison. Literally ******ed to compare the 2.

Douglas also lost to Tony Tucker. :nut

Holyfield was past his best by the time Lewis fought him.

Tyson would clean up this era easy. He was a freak athlete. One of the most explosive fighters ever to lace em up.


Watch more boxing.

 

What eveidence is there to claim Holyfield was past it when he fought Lewis. No one at the time was saying it.

And Wlad isnt a freak??? How many guys are that size,that fast,that powerful?

Sure Tysons explosive,he'd aslo be giving away 7-9 inches against the Klitschkos and about 20 pounds. How many guys did Tyson fight that were like thyat?

Holmes had lost twice to Spinks,he retired and then came back 2 years later. You saying he was anywhere near his prime?

 

Holyfield had lost a step before he fought Tyson. Infact most were claiming he was past his best even before those 2 fights.

Ok. You're a Klit fan. Thought so. Nothing more need to be said.

 

this is really just a sly attempt at pumping up Joe Calzaghe' mediocre career.

 

theres not enough way to describe your stupidity...Dont people know who the **** mike was???

 

So you disagree?

You think Wlad isnt good despite the fact hes held the title for years??

I didnt realise people could be that blind! I can respect the fact Tyson was the youngest champ ever. You dont seem to be able to respect that the Klitschkos have dominated this era.
Haters be hatin' I suppose.

 

Youngest ever world champ,became undisputed. Beating Trevor Berbick,Tony Tucker, and Michael Spinks. Had a good win against Razor Ruddock and Frank Bruno.

Then got knocked silly by Buster Douglas,went to prison for raping a girl.

Came out regained a world title beating Frank Bruno. Went on to get beat down by Evander Holyfield,was getting beaten in the rematch,decidedc to quit by biting Holyfields ear to avoid punishment, fought on. got another crack at the undisputed champ Lennos Lewis, got an unmerciful beating.

Had a couple of terrible losses when he was way past it later on in his career.


That Mike Tyson right?

 

Hindsight's always 20/20, Eh. Young Tyson was a BEAST.

 

Jeff Lacy doesn't even merit being mentioned in the same sentence as Mike Tyson!

 

WOW!!!:admin I've never heard that comparison before. But I've been in a coma for 10 years so what do I know?:-(

 

How is losing to a SUPERIOR fighter, making you INFERIOR by definition, being exposed. And he beat the first Ring Champion he faced. In The first round. In devestating fashion.
