Id say Pinklin Thomas
Scratch that i meant Tony Tubbs
Probably Tyrell Biggs
id say berbick spinks, or mayb tucker, due to the sheer disadvantage he had to overcome,
As much as I like Mike He was all or nothing he either won big or lost big!!!!He never had the war of attriction that would define his career like Ali-frazier,Bowe-Holyfield,Gatti-Ward,a hand full of Delahoya fights most recently Corrales-Castillo...He was on his way with Douglas it was a see-saw battle and the fight was at a furious pace I dont remember if mike was winning when he got counted out but I do feel Buster got a 2nd lease on life with the long count(argue all you want) if Mike won by Ko anyway his career more than likely would of ended up the same somehow>>>Quote:

I saw all of his fights, after number 4.
The best performance was when he totally dismantled Tyrell Biggs. He had nearly everything that day.
Yes!!!! I should of mentioned that fight in my post cc:coolclick:Quote:

I thought he was good in his losing effort in 'Undisputed' (the prison film). Oh, my lawyers tell me I can't say that.
Allegedly
I'd have to say both Bruno fights. In the first fight, Tyson got hurt rocked by Bruno, then he systematically broke Bruno down. Bruno never even fell, but was simply taking powerful shots on the ropes.
In the second Bruno fight, after the ref stopped the fight, Tyson was celebrating. He was genuinely celebrating winning the WBC belt. A surreal and poignant moment in seeing Tyson sincerely happy on live television.
Briggs IMO. He was great in the spinks fight IMO.
Who was the guy that was calling Mike Tyson a homo before they fought and then Mike whooped him so bad that he didn't fight again for about 10 more years ???
against micheal spinks--ok spinks was a light heavy---but he was a heavy when he fought tyson----its so annoying once a light heavy moves up 2 heavy there always considered just a light heavy, which is bull---so tysons biggest fight was against heavyweight micheal spinks
