Agree, except the 80's- IMO that was the era of passing the HW belt.
Berbick, Tubbs, Tucker, Bonecrusher Smith, Tillis, Ferguson.
A CW looking Marvis Frazier, an (i can only fight well in the amatuer) Tyrrell Biggs
Tyson took those belts like candy from a blind baby & defeated them like it was a walk in the park.

Had Tyson made it to the olympics and came out in the late 80's instead of 1985, I can only wonder not if, but how many times he may have lost...
