Ah well at least there's one thing we can all agree on & that is that the heavyweight devision is piss poor at the minute & doesn't look like picking up anytime soon..... You've only got to look at Tyson fury to confirm that
Ali Louis & Frazier v a prime tyson I think would have been epic fights that would be very hard to call IMO, as I said in an earlier post I think frazier would have really troubled mike Tyson & so would forman... I think lennox was a bit cumbersome.
Let's face it none of us know for sure I just...
How was he a dumb boxer ?
He fought exactly how a (shorter than most) fighter should fight & isn't it funny how every fighter from the Ali era beats Tyson according to most on NSC.... Pure nostalgia
Lol I think your views are jaded by thoughts of the older mike Tyson, at the age of 19 to very early 20's (he's prime) he was a much different fighter to the troubled fighter everyone is remembering, I don't think Lewis would have handled the early mike AT ALL
I think if he'd have been a bit more humble out of the ring & didn't as you say loose the plot then he would have a lot more respect as one of the greats. Who's to say what he might have gone on to achieve if he was not so uncontrollable in & out of the ring
Beats both of them I reckon.... I also think Frazier would have caused Tyson more problems than Ali because I feel he could take a punch better than Ali & was also very aggressive & I don't know how Tyson would have dealt with somebody not willing to give an inch in the centre of the ring
No contest in your opinion but if we don't agree it means we know nothing about boxing ?
Your points are fair enough but this is all subjective, both mine & your outcomes would be very possible (if it was possible for them both to be in the ring together in their prime lol)
I do agree Tyson was...
Im loving the fact people think Ali was some kind of shadow that couldn't be hit !
It's absolute rubbish he could and was hit a lot and as shocking as it may seem to you knocked down in his career, I'm not saying it's a fact Tyson would have won but in my opinion I think he probably would have...
I don't think Ali would have coped with tysons power, yeah Ali could slip a hell of a lot of punches but he still used to get hit & if there's one thing about Tyson it's that he was always on the front foot throwing sledge hammers.
I think he would have backed Ali up eventually broke him down &...
