Tyson did not avoid George, he took of Rudduck who was far more dangerous that George!!!Quote:

Leon Spinks wouldnt be as keen to take the fight as early in his career and Foreman would have been left swinging for thin air while eating shots as he did against Lyle.
Tyson inside 3 I reckon but if Haye was around at Tysons peak he would have just been a good to average fighter - Tyson in this poor era would be at the top. PRIME Tyson that is!
Tyson before 98 was in another world, the Holyfield stuff was just one of those things, u can't beat Tyson with skill, there's only one way to beat Tyson and only busta Douglas has the answer!!!
Or u could wait til he gets old and like lewis
That's kind of sad that a 42 year old Foreman had more success with a 28 year old in his prime Holyfield than Tyson did with a 34 year old past his prime Holyfield.Quote:

We already saw this fight. It was called Mike Tyson vs Marvis Frazier.
Haye wouldn't make it out of the first minute let alone the first round.....and I'm a haye fan!
No discussion, no vote for Haye here!
