    Interesting they never talked about it.

    I say RJJ UD.
    Roy did talk about fighting Tyson and I think Toney was around as well.

    Anyone except Lennox Lewis.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Even the most shot version of Tyson would have utterly destroyed Roy. That is beyond the scope of what he would be capable of at HW.

    I think the Toney that beat Holyfield would have been able to beat that version of Tyson.

    There should've been a "probably" option in there. But I chose "I don't know. RJJ was special." Because he was. I too do not put a lot of stock in his "technical flaws". He fought the way he wanted to fight.... was tremendously entertaining.... and won most of his fights. I for one was sad to see his steep decline. He had speed... he had power... he had athleticism... AND, he had charisma, something sadly lacking in many fighters today.
