That was the old Tyson, we are talking prime Tyson. The one that would ruin the Klit brothers and wipe out Haye and force Audley to immediately retire our of fright.Bottom line, Tyson was convicted of rape and committed the worst foul I ever saw in the ring.

Undefeated Tucker and Biggs over 6ft 5 +, Bruno, Williams, Bonecrusher Smith, Thomas whilst not great would have beaten today’s contenders with ease. Tyson and Jones destroyed with what was put in front of them, they did not struggle or lose rounds at their best.

Yeah, Williams was a monster during the five minutes he lasted against Weaver before he was stopped.
Tyson didn't lose rounds against tomato cans, because they rarely lasted one. There's a reason why his team kept him away from Holyfield.

Williams may have been stopped by Weaver but Williams gave Holmes a lot of trouble.Yeah, Williams was a monster during the five minutes he lasted against Weaver before he was stopped.

Tyson would have destroyed Holyfield had they fought when Tyson beat Williams, he was on a different level to most fighters in history.

He gave a faded, 36 year old Holmes problems.Williams may have been stopped by Weaver but Williams gave Holmes a lot of trouble.Yeah, Williams was a monster during the five minutes he lasted against Weaver before he was stopped.

Tyson was on a different level? As demonstrated by what? Knocking out faded greats and tomato cans? Didn't Douglas show the world he was overrated?
Holyfield fought at 212lbs in 1989, 3lbs lighter than when he knocked out Mike in 1996.
I'll save you the troble of posting the stock response:-
1. If Cus hadn't died
2. Tyson didn't train for Douglas
3. If Rooney was still training him.
4. Douglas had a long count
Pick one, or come up with a totally new theory on why Tyson was the greatest in spite of all the evidence to the contrary.

Re: I miss Tyson
TBH I don't think there are too many heavyweights who could have beaten Tyson in his prime.....even the other GREATS would have found it tough.....Tyson had issues with taller fighters....fighters that could take the pressure and come back for more.....I think Tyson would always have trouble fighting a Buster Douglas type boxer....also a Holyfeld type fighter who would have soaked it up and fought back with intensity........food for thought!!!!
job Bicuit (I don't know)!!!
eh eh!!!
