    Mike was something special, Ok Holmes wasnt in his prime but he was even further removed from that when he pushed Holyfield alll the way and beat Mercer who should have got the decision against Lewis.

    No one else would ever have done that to Holmes at any point in his career


    Your crazy if you think Tyson does that to prime Holmes infact id go as far as to call you nuts.

    Im a huge Tyson fan but man you need a history lesson son.

    Bet you were crying when Holyfeild,Douglas and Lewis beat up on the man whos nuts you hug so tightly get off it Tyson champ of weaker divsion then now nothing to be to proud of if you ask me dude it is kind of a joke. Say what you want about Holyfeild juicing but atleast he did not bite peoples ears off and rape wemon.

    No, fair play to Mike he conned millions out of ppv's from idiots who watched his post Rooney fights when he didnt train or give a shit.

    Holyfield did bite someone on the shoulder in an amature match and has dozens of kids he dont pay anything towards, not really rape but thats ok cause mike didnt really rape either.

    Ha ha I win

    Tyson raped and sure bitting ears off are ok and trying to break someones arms ok to. At least Holyfeild did not have to force wemon to have sex with him. And he actual won against elite fighters as well so there ross i win the guy your so in love with is a loser.

    mike tyson would beat all except ali. marciano was to slow to keep up with tyson same goes for louis, frazier would get kod in the first round foreman wouldnt land anything cleanly so thats it mike would beat all except ali.


    Cute but wrong Tyson knew his abilties better than you do and he stated he knew he could never beat Lennox Lewis, Tyson avoided fighting a 40 year old Foreman, Buster Douglas a nobody did knock him out Holyfield knocked him out, Lewis knocked him out. Any hald way decent true heavyweight over 205 pounds and wasnt afraid of Mike Tysons hype would probably beat him. Once Tyson hit you and you didnt go down or run you took his heart.

    Foreman, Bowe, Frazier, Ron Lyle, ect ect ect would of all knocked him out quick, Fighters like a prime Ali, Holmes ect ect ect would of iced him late but I will say this. No fighter pre Ali would of beat Tyson. No 180 pound fighters like Dempsey or Marciano would of made it past 1 round. No glass chin fighter like Joe Louis who was almost knocked out by a super middleweight with no punching power like Billy Conn would beat Tyson.

    Tyson was ok but he was never this beast like some of you pretend he was.

    Mike Tyson couldn't hang with a lot of the legends, no disrespect to Mike of course.

    Ali: Ali by late TKO, Tyson didn't have the heart to hang with him
    Louis: Joe totally whips Tyson's ass...no damn contest
    Marciano: Rocky beats Tyson up...Rocky never quit, never took a round off. He'd wear Miek down.
    Foreman: Mike may wet himself before and after this one
    Holmes: well Tyson COULD take a prime Holmes as Larry did allow himself to get caught
    Frazier: Interesting match up...I think Tyson might have taken that one
    Dempsey: Tough to call, I'll say Tyson early
    Norton: Tyson KO 1
    Shavers: Tyson KO 1

    Tyson was great but I think he'd have trouble hanging with the big dogs

    I agree with your list except Rocky and Joe Louis, he would KO them.

    Rocky's workrate, heart, and power make him a tough fight for Tyson IMO but his size does leave something to be desired.


    Joe Louis would whip Mike Tyson's ass there is NO DOUBT about that

    Joe Louis is the 2nd greatest ever heavyweight of all time. Just think he would be vulnerable early to the Tyson onslaught and not survive. If he did then agreed he would take it late.

    Tyson would have to worry about Joe's early attack...Joe had pretty good punching power and a rock solid chin.

    I'd take Mike against Dempsey/Marciano/Patterson/Liston/Norton but I feel pretty certain that Foreman/Ali/Louis/Holy/Frazier/Lewis/Holmes would all win in the mythical prime v prime fights
