    I wouldn't call Tyson "Sam Peter" but I would say he's overhyped.....but Ibeabuchi's hype beats anyone elses when you actually look at the actual acheivements he had in the ring.

    I would have loved to have seen Tyson-Bowe or Tyson-Briggs in the early to mid 1990's. Both those fights could have gone either way depending on which Tyson and which Bowe or Briggs showed up. Tyson-Bowe would have been incredible and I think Tyson may have been able to take him out....Bowe never really fought too many punchers and Holyfield was able to put him down and wear him out. I just would never pass up an opportunity to see Shannon Briggs have another "asthma attack"

    I think 90% of boxing upsets would of been avenged in a rematch...
    Ali - Foreman is a biggie for me.

    Tyson - Douglas im not so sure about. Tyson's life was slipping at this point but I'm sure if he'd actually put in work, he'd of done the business at any point in their respective careers.

    I'd say the same thing that happened when Douglas fought Holyfield.

    Tyson KO 2.

    ....some of you guys forget that Mike Tyson only rematched 1 guy that beat him and that match didn't end with any more positive results as he had the first time.

    I think at that point in time Tyson would have had a difficult time with Douglas just because he had already been beaten up by him and Douglas had taken big shots off of Tyson too. That being said a big old fat slow Buster Douglas couldn't last the distance vs too many guys. I just think in a rematch Tyson would have been given a fight that he would have to WORK to get the W for.

    He wouldn't have rematched Douglas, becuase when Tyson came out of the Pen, Douglas was about 400 Pounds

    Lewis - the first fight didn't really warrant a rematch

    Williams & McBride - LMAO

    Yes but Razor Ruddick was a much more consistent fighter than Buster Douglas.

    LOU SAVARESE knocked out Douglas in I believe one round.

    Chino GIVE IT UP Tyson got the shit kicked out of him in that fight.

    When Razor Ruddock is "more consistent" than you then you know you're in bad shape. I know he couldn't rematch EVERYONE he lost to, I just made the point about Holyfield because Tyson obviously didn't want to get KO'd again.

    I still think fights with Mercer, Bowe, and Briggs would have been very entertaining
