I'm not certain who the "badder man" was in actuality they were probably both so unsure of themselves that they were easier to break inside the ring than any rational man. Those guys did outrageous things to make people fear them and when they weren't feared they didn't do so well.

In a fight I figure this mirrors maybe the Frank Bruno fight or Bonecrusher Smith fight.....Tyson gets hurt but ends up KO-ing Sonny.

Foreman would have wrecked them both and perhaps Ron Lyle would have held his own as well. Ron Lyle killed somebody, so I reckon that puts him in the ballpark when we're talking about "bad men"
