Don King had the craap version of Tyson.

Its really hard for people to admit Mike was awesome, not just awesome but a force of nature, he had everything, speed, power, stamina, resiliance, balance, and some of the best defence and offence the sport has ever seen.

Like I said, name a heavy weight fighter post tyson that has beaten 5 defending champions?

Not even Holyfield.
name a HOF fighter Tyson beat that was a legit Heavy and prime?

im pretty sure spinks would have been if tyson didnt knock him out - he beat (controversal i know) holmes twice, but even beating him one out of two times would put him right at the top.

I dont think many other fighters would have knocked out berbick in his prime in 2, spinks in 1, a prime bruno in 5 ( lewis took 7 about 7 years later), even a rusty old version of holmes who took ''great'' evander holyfield 12 rounds 7 years after in four etcetc
