Tyson-Douglas was pretty one sided, and a fighter only needs to beat the referee's count, not some exact-to-the-microsecond count that no-one is counting out loud to him anyway.
Tyson-Spinks was another one-sided affair.

Man, not for nothing, Serg is my boy and all, but he's not "a great." Great fighter does not equal "great" as in ATG.

I agree though, if we're talking about ATGs then Sergio, nor Cotto for that matter, are ATGs. And LOL @ Douglas, Sanders and Hatton being listed. The OP listed Douglas-Tyson as a one sided affair between two 'greats' so I'm not really sure what's the purpose of this thread.Last edited by _original_; 06-09-2014, 11:25 AM.

and I've never seen this fight but I hear the second fight between Sugar Ray Robinson and Jake Lamotta was pretty lopsided. SRR probably hadn't quite entered his prime yet.

Now if the KD had occurred a minute earlier, it may have been different, given Tyson's finishing skills.
But Douglas otherwise dominated the fight, Tyson won 1 other round, at best.
