    I don't know how people can even answer this now. We know Mike Tyson was a broken fighter when he fought Lewis and it came after 3 years in prison. Tyson was shell of his former self. Floyd is undefeated and an ATG, just like Lewis and Tyson. What happens if Canelo goes on to have an ATG career? Whether he loses this one or wins, if the kid goes on to be one of the greats of boxing, then I think this fight will be remembered more.

    Past his prime and post 3 year prison stint in the middle of his career = shell of former self.

    Again you are comparing a competitive fight with a circus show. Just because people bought the fight to see what craziness Tyson will do doesn't mean it was a great fight.

    History remembers Tyson and Lewis as a farce of a fight. Nothing competitive or great about it.
