Realistically Mike Tyson belongs no where near the top 5

[BrothaZay]

Change my mind


Dudes resume is mediocre and he couldn't dominate in the 90s once the heavyweight talent pool increased significantly from what it was in the 80s

Ali
Foreman
Joe
SRR
SRL
Roy Jones
Floyd

Some guys that are above him easily
Not to mention guys with cases

Tyson’s greatness goes beyond his resume


There is a reason Ali himself said he couldn’t beat Tyson in his prime.

Where you around for mikes actual run? Just wondering

 

[Complexion]

You'll never see a heavyweight move with such grace and speed ever again. Nor will you see anyone with a custom made boxing style that exemplifies his talents so perfectly whilst using shortcomings to an advantage and having that much sheer power, control, precision and ring IQ.



People simply couldn't hit him as he'd evade, keep the pressure on then counter punch and it would be lights out.

In terms of sheer skill people really underrate Tyson as he's literally leagues ahead of so many of his peers for reasons said.

Career wise maybe not. But if I had to pick one boxer for one fight, I’m probably picking prime Mike.

Where's the lie? Mike Tyson dominated in the 80s then became human again in the 90s and is 0-2 against holyfield

[Kyle C. Barker]

He had a 4 year layoff during his peak due to courts/prison and he supposedly came back at 195 lbs and no training. Not to mention he got away from his original style and turned into a head hunter which is no good for a 5'10" heavyweight.

But going by the eye test he was one of the most physically gifted boxers to ever step in the ring.
