As did Marciano and Tyson to be completely honest. Tyson wasn't "challenged" by anyone until the 1990's which was AFTER his prime and hell I doubt he beats any of those guys he lost to in his prime anyway and look at the guys he didn't fight there are some very good names on there that could have beaten him.
Tyson fought all comers during his prime years, there was no one he avoided.
During his prime years there was no one to avoid....Holyfield, Lewis, et al came around much later and even then Tyson didn't seek them out until he NEEDED the money from those fights.

The guys I'm talking about Tyson avoiding are: Foreman, Mercer, Tua, etc. not saying that in those cases fights were there to be made and Tyson ducked them (that's the case with Foreman though) but that Tyson for one reason or another chose not to fight them or vice versa....I'm just saying all challenges weren't actively sought out.
