Tyson of 1988 versus Lewis of 1999

[Mark TKO]

55-45 overall in Lewis' favour I feel.

But once the first three rounds over with and Lewis was still around then that increases to 80-20 at least.

Tyson wasn't used to being in a tough fight back then. Lewis would have given him it

This is something else that gets me, look at the fights Mike had that went 12 rounds back then. He didnt tire or get gift decisions. He made fighters fight scared.

[Mark TKO]

no he didn't but Lewis wouldn't have got scared.

I only remember the Tucker and Smith fights that went distance from back then. Both pretty comfortable if I remember correctly. Then there was that Green bloke who he also punched in a nightclub or something a couple of years before. Not sure how that one went but I'm guessing it was again pretty comfortable.

I just think Lewis could have done what Douglas did a couple of years earlier thats all.

But a Tyson KO inside of 30 seconds wouldnt surprise me in the slightest.

Me too, although Lewis would have controlled him rather than battered him like a man possesed.

Lewis couldnt "control" Mercer, who hadno where near the speed or skill of Tyson. He was also alot easier to hit. This is the same Mercer that Holmes beat

Your right, I've changed my mind due to the fact that you keep repeating the same fucking thing over and over again.

Inception; it works!





I agree with GeneralBulldog about Holyfield. Having thought about it, I think he beats Tyson 7/10 at any point of their respective careers.

But in regards to Lewis, I have to call it 50/50.

Then again I already make an exception for Tyson. It's kinda hard to explain but obviously Lewis was more consistent where as Tyson was a short fuse so true odds are Lewis is more likely the winner but if were talking prime4prime, although Tyson's physical peak barely lasted a summer, that was still his prime and so at that point I'm more inclined to say 50/50 if not 60/40 Tyson.

I'm not making any sense, I literately have no idea?!
