Believe it or not I use to think Tyson, but now I say Arturo Gatti... Not because he is canadian, but how many great fights has Tyson been in? I say one against Evander Holyfield and we all knew it was a matter of time before Evander took him out because Tyson wasn't at all effective, and was getting worked on the inside. Gatti though not a great fighter, and not among my favorites is so fun to watch almost all the time. There have been fights where he has been outclassed, but I can't think of any other fighter in as many close, brutal wars as this man. Tyson had the excitement that he might to something crazy... literally in the ring, but Gatti had the excitement that he would go haymaker against haymaker with anyone willing to fight him toe to toe.
