Lewis is also overrated...to slow and lumbering. Tyson circa 1987 would have done it in 2-3 rounds.
Tyson lost to Douglas and in reality probably should not be ranked in the top 10 of all time as a lot of boxing scribes have done.
Lewis was fast in the late 80's early 90's ..real fast and excellent power... much better at that point in time then he was when he made that 25-30 lbs leap after the Ruddock fight , all that muscle slowed him to a crawl.. The 226 lb Lewis that destroyed Ruddock would have given a prime Tyson some troubles IMO.
