but at the same time, Tyson is in your top 15 even tho he lost to fukking Buster Douglass :mjlol:
losing to buster is not really bad, anyone can lose a fight but its the way he lost.... he was exposed more then anything, after that tyson was very beatable

like ive said before this should have been a wake up call for "prime mike".



nikkas is stupid, first of all Tyson went into that fight with a ear infection and this was his first step up fight and he still won, so where was this wake up call? you nikkas sound like you sold more into the Tyson hype than anyone else, sounding all disappointed he aint knock him out as if that detracts from him as a fighter

Lennox Lewis and Riddikk Bowe ain't like the bums tyson was fighting in the 80's

why tyson fell off then, he got his ass whooped by Busta Douglas, a straight bum, if he was so great he should've outclassed a bum like that under any circumstance

how did he magically forget this DBZ head movement that can evade anything

Busta Douglas was a big guy and bullied tyson, and he fought a good fight because HE WASN'T SCARED OF HIM

So what happened to Tyson's skills at the age of 24, they just magically vaporized

don't say Cus died and Tyson fell off lmao he won 26 STRAIGHT FIGHTS AFTER CUS DIED

Cus died in 1985 lmao, ZERO IMPACT ON THIS nikka'S CAREER IN THE RING, Tyson becae champ in 1986

you bum ass casuals don't know what the fukk you are talking about

Tyson was a decent fighter thats it, flat footed with power in booth hands

he was the GGG of his day, an HBO HYPE MACHINE
Who said anything about Cus? not me nikka..you acting all hurt like Tyson shouldn't get his props..like he wasnt considered the best fighter in the world up til prison, not Holy,not Lewis and damn sure not Bowe...keep in mind Tyson was the last heavyweight to be rated p4p the best fighter in the world, no one has done it since...no Holy,not Lewis and damn sure not Bowe p*ssy...but they better fighters..Hype machines dont go about unifying the belts..Holy or Bowe didnt do that and Lewis picked his titles out of trash cans.. and carrying the sport on his back for 20+ yrs..you a casual with that bullshyt you talking, take ya bias out of it and give this man his props, youngest heavyweight champ in history, youngest unified champ which he did in under 8months nikka!!, cleaned out the division top to bottom, rated the best p4p fighter in the world which is unheard of for a heavyweight...after he lost to Douglas, he won 4 in a row ..fighting Razor Ruddock which was considered a Dangerous fight, none of the top guys wanted to fight him..Tyson not only knocked this nikka ass out in the 7th but when it was some controversy about the win, he went back in 3 months later and beat this nikkas ass for 12 rounds breaking ribs,his jaw and cheek bone..you act like Tyson fell off after the Douglas fight...the nikka was in line to fight for the title again with Holyfield for the belts HE unified..and to top it off he was the biggest draw in boxing..fukk outta here nikka with that bullshyt you talking..I give all them nikkas props, aint no hate here at all...shyt must drive you insane Tyson will always be more highly regarded by the general public than all them other nikkas..He in the vein of Dempsey,Louis, Marciano, and Ali..

1.it exposes his limitations as a pure boxer.

mike never was a complete boxer . and it was his own dumb ass fault. i love the guy but he messed his self by not fullfilling his potential.

2.no nikka u the one that sound dissapointed , in here writing essays n shyt. why should i care if mike didn't care about his self?

I'm not trying to make excuses for Tyson and Holyfield probably still would've beaten him but I feel the first fight was pretty even in the first 6 rounds. I think the turning point was when Holyfield hit tyson with the low blow. After they squared up Holyfield really did damage to Tyson that I felt affected after they squared up again. The third round I'll always wonder what woulda happened had Tyson not bit Holyfield. He was having a great round against Holyfield before he lost it and bit the dude. Tyson even looked like he was making adjustments in the first few minutes of that round shaking his head and messing with Holyfield's timing. Again Holyfield was good enough to still have won but I"ll always wonder.

tyson woulda gave hoylfleld the beats if they fought before he went to prison
it is what it is
No he wouldn't have. Tyson fought Buster Douglas before he went to prison and we all saw what happened. Holyfield, like Bowe, came into the fight unafraid of Tyson. That's a big part of it.

There's too many "would haves" in Tyson's history and we don't know what would have happened, but we do know Holyfield beat him once and probably would have won another fight convincingly if not for Tyson bailing out of the second one.

that "not being afraid shyt" shyt is a myth
tyson whipped plenty of fighters who werent afraid of him
tyson got refocused after the douglas fight
he wasnt back to his prime
but the tyson dat beat razor ruddock would smash holyfield
