    Prime Jack Johnson. His defensive tactics would frustrate the living hell out of Tyson. Then he would come on strong in the later rounds, 10-15, when he had Mike fatigued.

    Foremans best knockouts come out over guys with glass jaws (or suspected ones)

    Norton, Frazier, Moorer...............

    Certainly might work.

    I have doubts about how Mike would handle Johnsons clinching and inside game.

    You're right. But I don't think it's true of Liston either. :good

    Azzer's just letting his dark side out. Happens to the best of us. Especially when the humanoids from the deep invade Classic.

    Tysons record isnt what you call atrractive, i feel his record is a bit more 'honest'.

    Guys like Bowe and Vitali who only have 1-2 losses, on paper that seems amazing but in reality, they lost to the best fighters they ever fought and outside of that, they had pretty **** poor opposition.

    I think Tysons opposition was a level above Bowes

    Ok maybe i was a bit harsh on Liston.

    But outside of Patterson, his resume is kinda poor (not REALLY poor) but you know what i mean.
