Page & Coetzee were names, well so was Michael Knight and Devon Miles, but names mean sh1t when you have been getting beaten by every fukka you fight and getting KOed in a round by Bruno

And Dokes was better then Ruddock wasn't he (so what if the fight was in 1990)

Green lost 9 of the 10 rounds against Tyson and Tucker won 3 or 4 at best. Tucker by the way was 35-0 and didn't lose for another 6 years after the Tyson fight, so he was quite handy

and Tyson had been a pro a year when he fought 8 year veteran Tillis, who had floored the likes of Greg Page, so no disgrace going the distance.

Stick to politics Lyle old son, coz your boxing knowledge sucks
What do we ask of heavyweights 1) How's his chin? 2) Punching power? 3) Stamina? 4) Boxing ability 4) Defense? 5) Have they proven themselves vs a NAME opponent? (took Tyson until his 20th fight to fight a NAME guy in Quick Tillis a guy Witherspoon KO'd in 1, Page KO'd in 8, Thomas KO'd in 8 all PRE Tyson and Mike went the distance with him WOW that punching power)

Michael Dokes by the way lasted longer with a younger Evander Holyfield than Tyson did with an Older one who had just finished 3 brawls with Riddick Bowe!!!

OOOOH so now we're stretching it to 1990 are we But that's "POST PRIME" Tyson!!!!

In that case here are some MORE names he COULD have fought in 1990

GEORGE FOREMAN...oh but Mikey was too scared of Big George

RAY MERCER
Pierre Coetzer
Tommy Morrison

BigH you are as stupid as you are ugly
