The stuff you say about calzaghe is way more off base than what ice is saying.

and tillis made a good account of himself, he came in better shape than he had before and danced around for 10rds.  but tyson needed this fight as a learning curve and thats all it was ,was a learning curve nothing more so stop judging tyson on this fight. it was only 13 months into his pro career...thats i year folks
Ok lets judge him after 5 years when surely by that time anybody else would be in their prime.... Oh wait tysons career was over by then. Saying that judging him in his first couple of years isn't accurate is a joke because in all honesty thats when he was at his best. By the time tyson fought tillis he was on a gradual decline that can be easily seen if you study all of his earlier fights. Winning the title restored his intensity but that started to fade out as well. Now i'll be the first to say that tyson on his best night gives just about every ATG a run for their money or a loss but you have to understand that by the time the tillis fight came around, tyson was about as good as he was gonna get, essentially that is a prime tyson. Ali was faster, stronger, and much more punch commited than tillis. The tillis fight exposes tyson to show that he would struggle against bigger guys with great jabs and movement and ai was the best of them.
well i strongly disagree with that statment
so according to you, tyson was at his best at 13 months into his pro carrer? ....NO!! he was still learning
Ok lets say he was still learning for the first two years of his career. Then the finished product was 3 more years of a "prime" and that was it? No tyson was at his peak at the very beginning of his career. As i've said many times befopre after watching his fights closely i could see a difference and that he was infact losing intensity as time went on. He was not becoming beter after 13 months, he was becoming worse.
