    I don't know mate, some fighter just have your number, and i think Evander had what it takes to beat the post Douglas Tyson ! Tyson lost his greatest asset in Kevin Rooney . Tyson had no discipline in 91, . Evander was the opposite, he had heart and determination factor and has love for the game and loved to be in the gym . Holyfield's goal all along , was to fight Tyson . Evander had been preparing himself for that show a long long time. 

    The only Tyson that beat Evander IMO ,  is the Cuz Da / Kevin Rooney Tyson, very small window maybe 2 -3 years where I think Tyson would have beat anyone,  in any time period.  ! 1986-1988 thats it  ! activity was the key to Tyson's success, under Rooney Tyson fought about every 3 months. once Rooney was fired Mike  fought about once , maybe twice a year and  thus went to S*** rather fast ! 
    nah he wouldnt of beat every hw in history he beat berbick and michael spinks impressive what about james tillis giving tyson hell and tucker a prime holmes or ali would of beaten tyson
    yeah ice i will say this.tyson would go through states of passivness and lose his agression occasionally almost like he was bored with the fight eg:tillis,don halpin,and a few others i cant think of right now but with tucker,man tucker was one of the best of the 80's and imo better than lewis,at the time tucker was 35-0 unbeaten IBF champion and fought like a champion but tyson still dominated
    tucker hurt hes right hand in training he was winning fight after 4 rounds after he wasnt using hes right hand if he hadnt injured his hand he would of won tucker had good footwork and he was taunting tyson i actually believe if he wouldnt of injured his hand in training he could of beat tyson by decision

I really thought Mike would have taking him out. very disappointed in that fight
    Yeah I was just a kid when that fight went down, like 14 I think, or 13, I don't remember exactly, but I always liked Tyson, least how he fought not his antics, and I thought he had a real shot of knocking out Lennox. He was talking hella tough, and afterall Rahman did it. But instead he took a hellacious a** kicking, but took it like a man, no quitting, least not that night.
    Also:
    Mayorga vs Delahoya
    Roy Jones vs Tarver II
    Roy Jones vs Glen Johnson
    comments like that make me feel OLD as all fuk!~ LOL !
    Makes me feel old too, now someone cool click me a wheel chair
