Some thought on Tyson

For the record your honour. Tucker and Biggs were undefeated fighters not from Holmes era.

So 2 decent heavyweights

I do wonder about a young Tyson being groomed for the heavyweight division by Eddie Futch though. I don't know if that would weaken the mentality of Tyson or if he would be more calm and tougher psychologically.

Pinklon was decent and gave a good effort, Berbick fought the wrong fight, Bonecrusher tried hugging, Spinks got scared, Tubbs tried his best, Bruno was limited, Williams got cocky.

Nah, Mitch Green hit the prime Tyson quite a bit.
6'5", 29 year old Mitch Green didn't fight scared, and he went the full 10 rd distance with the prime Tyson; Tyson won the Title 6 months after the Mitch Green fight.
They were both contenders at the time: Green with only one loss 9 months earlier to Trevor Berbick, who Tyson would defeat 6 months later.
Green went toe-to-toe quite a bit in that fight, Tyson didn't cave in over it.
It's too bad they didn't rematch down the line.

I don't think Angelo Dundee in his corner would've helped Tyson very much regarding strategy.
He was more of a motivational-speaker type rather than a great strategist.

My point is not the help, but harm. Dundee presence would not harm him, unlike Rooney

And neither was a big hitter.
