Mike Tyson rating all time

[mikeeod]

For me:
1. Ali
2. Louis
3. Holmes
4. Evander
5. Johnson
6. Lewis
7. Foreman
8. Wladimir
9. Frazier
10. Marciano
11. Tyson
12. Dempsey
13. Walcott
14. Charles

I generally understand that lists are pure opinion, but wladimir being higher than Tyson seems like a crime.

I am a big Tyson fan, but I’m ranking Wlad higher because of his extended time on top. The losses to Corrie Sanders and Lamont Brewster Burt him a little, but I just feel that he was dominant over a much longer time than Mike. Mike was the youngest heavy champ ever and had some highlight reel knockouts, but his prime was very short in comparison and he lost some ugly fights vs Evander and Buster Douglas.

I know some will say he was past his prime by those fights, and they may be correct, but I think he would have lost to those guys, ESPECIALLY Evander, at any point of his career. As you pointed out, however, this is all purely speculation/opinion/subjective.

i must clarify my post, tyson does not make my top 50 p4p and the next 50 would also be a struggle. at heavy he makes the top 20
