Stunned badly? Where did you get that from? What about Tucker landing in round 2? You can count on one hand the times Tyson was cuaght clean at his best.

Tyson was still a decent fighter before prison and Tyson moved from side to side. Holyfield landed about 15 punch combination on George and nearly dropped him. Imagine if Tyson was landing that freely. I think Tyson would have had a field day against Foreman.

Knocked him down early in the fight and then stunned him later on...seen the fight have you?
It was like seeing how a Wlad Klitschko with a better chin would get on.

Lots of holding and mauling from Smith. Only let his hamds go when he knew the bell was near because otherwise fight over for him.
