im not going start another debate but he was not unstoppable nowhere near it and that showed against james tillis + tony tucker + buster douglas
You haven't mentioned any fighters who have fought Prime Tyson except Tony Tucker... He easily mowed through Tillis, and Tucker was knocked around virtually ever round. The Tyson that fought Holyfield stopped using his head movement, and combination punches, he just came in with one punch and allowed Holyfield to counter him... same with the Tyson that fought Lewis and so on... When he fought Holmes who still had good footwork, and as deadly a jab as ever he easily avoided it, and he countered effectively... I say he beats Louis in 6 or less.
no he didnt tillis won 4 rounds so did tucker and i did hear tucker injured his right hand in training he gave tyson some troubles oh right so holmes at 38 still had great jab and good footwork no he didnt and he hadnt fought for two years see thats what i dont get people say holmes was quite good but tyson at what 24 or 23 was *out of his prime* watch 78 to 80 version of holmes then watch that holmes who had two weeks to train and ur see alot of difference and i mean hell of alot and still gave tyson some trouble until he got caught that night was nowhere a prime holmes plus holyfield was more out of his prime than tyson i wernt hearing when he crushed bruno and seldon that tyson was out of his prime no one give holyfield a chance because of his age plus of his heart problems year before tyson fight plus how shit he looked in 3rd bowe fight
