Tyson's era was full of Ali wannabees who all tried to jab him. Pinklon Thomas had an excellent jab, so did Tony Tucker and even at an advanced age, Holmes had an excellent jab on par with anyone in the division.
Frank Bruno, whom you mentioned had a very potent jab. But he's weak when he fights Tyson but a great fighter when he nearly pounds Lewis out of consciousness. Amazing logic. Half of Lewis's resume is full of Tyson leftovers yet Lewis has a great resume.
Tyson's era was better than the current era and slightly less talented than the 90s overall. In other words, it was actually a good era and he cleaned it out. The previous era dominated by Larry Holmes was even worst and the first time he fought a real elite level fighter in Mike Tyson, he was embarrassed and got his clock cleaned.
You have nothing to say. Tyson would demolish this era overnight and reign for over a decade. Tyson would've dominated the 90s even after the loss to Douglas if he hand't gone to prison. Glass jaw Lewis who couldn't even handle Tyson's sparring partner would've been steamrolled and broken to bits. Holyfield would've been brutally KOed and Bowe, if he fought Mike, would've also been KOed. Tyson is the elite of the elite and would be able to rule any era under the right guidance and with the right discipline and focus. The 90s weren't really dominated by a single fighter but that era would have if Tyson hadn't gone to prison.
