You already fvcked up I never stated one way or another that Mike was the GOAT the "FACT" is I negged your retarded ass when you said Silva could see Tyson in his prime with the hands

Tyson is one of if not the greatest example of wasted potential in the history of sports ! His prime was 19 to 21 (roughly) he would have killed Holyfield and Lewis if he fought them then. Mike was already living off hype by the time he fought Buster if you knew sh!t about boxing you would have know that.

19 your old Mike Tyson would whoop the sh!t outta Joe Lewis, Jack Johnson, and would have fought legendary all-time great bouts against Forman, Frazier and Ali and he realisticly could have and probably would have won against any of them. Tyson at 22-28 with Rooney and Cus as his main influences :whew: would have been the undisputed GOAT.

Prime Mike Tyson vs Anderson silva wouldnt even get sanctioned in the US they would have to fight in Tijuana or some sh!t because Mike would brutally kill that niqqa in the ring. Like mothafvckas with weak constitution would be puking and weeping, it would be dead quite all you here is sounds the human body shouldnt be capable of making as Kid Dynamite turns this dudes
insides into a poorly blended smoothie. :salute:

How can tyson be overrated? he cleaned out the division, which is more than you can say for lewis, holyfield, frazier or foreman..he fought who was there, just happened he was light years better than the whole heavyweight scene that he made them all look trash in comparison...

:thefucc:

Tyson cleaned out the 2nd weakest HW era of the last 60 years. I know you wont give the Klitchkos props for clearing out their era of HWs, so dont give Tyson that credit. :stopitslime:

sorry, not nearly as impressive as the Tyson weaves and him getting as low as he did and doing it with such swiftness

Nah bruh, Ali's shyt was more impressive.

I used to box and what Ali did was RISKY AS fukk and took almost superhuman like reflexes. nikka had his gloves down and everything. That's a recipe to get KTFO for 99.9% of human beings. :wow2:

What Tyson did was beastly but he's moving his whole body and weaving which is a harder target to hit than a nikka just shifting his head slightly around. Tyson also had his gloves by his head.

:whew: @ both of them tho.

I still don't see how folks can say Foreman would have beaten Mike. Foreman was slow and threw wide looping punches. Mike would blast him out within 4 rounds. Foreman had trouble with Ron Lyle who was no where near as technically sound as Tyson.

@InvictusAeternusEternus is on point.

If Cus D'Amato didn't pass away early in Mike's career, no tell how greater Tyson could have been.

mike woulda ended up just the way he was/is most likely. he was self destructive. cus dying might have sped it up some. but he was fukking up when cus was alive.

he wasnt equipped to deal with success. not the first. wont be the last.

ali was roy jones before roy jones existed. u dont teach ppl to box like that because... shyt, ur teaching them to get knocked the fukk out. nikka was breaking every rule in the book and making it look like textbook strategy. tyson's defense was impressive. but for ali to be able to do what he did... no comparison imo.

@InvictusAeternusEternus is on point.

Which Foreman?

Young Foreman was a bit stronger, a bit better boxer but would be at a disadvantage in the stamina department and would have no choice but to eat some shots since he had a very open defense, Tyson's quick hands would meet Foreman's face and body many of times. Young or old, Foreman would have the reach advantage and also the benefit of being able to throw wicked uppercuts to smaller opponents.

Older Foreman would've been able to last the deep waters just fine as he knew how to manage his stamina a LOT better. However, his power speed and overall skill wouldn't be what they once were (his feet were always slow, I'm just talking hand speed...I don't think anybody in their right minds think Foreman ever had quicker foot speed.). He picked up that mongoose cross-face style of defense and utilized it to have a better defense than before, though I've NEVER liked that defense, but that's just me.

With all that said...


Tyson beats either version the fukk down :leon:. It's a bad match up for Foreman and he should be happy he never had to face Tyson during his 2nd career. Tyson was no Frazier, his punches were too quick powerful and accurate for Foreman to be able to deal with, he'd have a puncher's chance at most and Tyson had a formidable chin (AKA, he could take an ASS whooping)

No version of Foreman beats a prime Tyson IMHO, he would be at WAY too much of an disadvantage as the older version and not have the stamina nor defense to hang as Young George

The biggest downfall in Mikes career was going away from the bobbing and weaving style and just tring to be a straight up headhunter. Mike used to utilize head movement, body shots and feints and feigns at one point. But as he got older and lazier all that stuff went out the door.

He cleaned it out period, beat most of the top ten was pound for pound the best fighter on the planet at that point ( when was the last time a heavyweight was considered p4p best? ), last man to unify the title in the ring, i could go on..2nd weakest? stop repeating things you hear, some of those guys careers extended well into the 90s, most of the men lennox lewis (best fighter of his era right?) beat were tysons left overs, so i guess the 2nd golden era would have to fall under weak era title as well right?? also dont ever compare the klits to tyson, some of the guys tyson beat would prob body the klits, so your right i give them ZERO ''props''

im sorry breh, im not impressed by Mitch Green, Tony Tubbs, and Carl Williams


and if you propping up the 1980s and putting down the 1990s HW, then you are deluded. The 1980s was a nadir for HW boxing. Tyson was a shining light, but that period was very weak.

"Lennox Lewis beat Tyson leftovers" Like Holyfield? :dead:

those rapid body shots Mike used to routinely land on people were just horrifying, anybody who has ever been hit clean and proper to the body will tell you, your nervous system yells :damn: at you instantly.

I was ringside when I seen mike tyson get knocked out.by Danny Williams. I was like :snoop: then I bumped into dipset. My buddy started rapping in front of camron and can tell wasn't interested :stopitslime: in hearing this nikka freestyle after mike lost. I also met Mr t ray j and pimp don Juan.
