tyson against the heavyweight legends

[Tysonbruno]

I think Tyson would beat most of them if not all of them he was pretty Awesome at his best.

[brocktonblockbust]

Tyson could knock ANYONE out in the 1st or 2nd round, even the best of the best. He had much more than a puncher's chance as they say.

But do I think he WOULD have actually DONE it?

No. Holmes never got KO'd in 1 or 2 rounds, and got up after an Earnie Shavers Nuclear Bomb of an Overhand Right, and actually won the round! NO way is a prime Holmes gonna get caught so stupidly. Even at 38+, Holmes got up after 2 knockdowns against a young Tyson, and that wasn't until late in the 4th or 5th round I believe. Prime Holmes would take Tyson out into the 7th or 8th and whip his ass right there, kinda like Holyfield did in the 1st fight with Tyson, only faster.

Marciano? Sorry, no way. A few Blockbustin' liver shots and Tyson is gone, goodbye. Does anybody really think Buster Duoglas hit harder than Rocco? Not in your wildest....! Imagine the additional torque a Marciano shot would have when it met the inrushing Tyson.

Ali?? Uhhh, sorry, not a snowball's chance..... Ali would skin 'im, wrap 'im, and freeze 'im in about 9 rounds, like he did to Foreman.

Joe Louis? Well he could be caught like Schmeling caught him late in their 1st fight. Chances are however Joe would catch Tyson with a crushing counter hook as Tyson missed a wild shot. You couldnt make mistakes against Louis.

Frazier? That's a toss-up.

Otherwise, Tyson does NOT belong in the Top 10. Top 15 YES.
