Agree, except the 80's- IMO that was the era of passing the HW belt.
Berbick, Tubbs, Tucker, Bonecrusher Smith, Tillis, Ferguson.
A CW looking Marvis Frazier, an (i can only fight well in the amatuer) Tyrrell Biggs
Tyson took those belts like candy from a blind baby & defeated them like it was a walk in the park.
Had Tyson made it to the olympics and came out in the late 80's instead of 1985, I can only wonder not if, but how many times he may have lost...
Why?
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
