To be honest, they are both exciting to watch.
I think tyson being a heavyweight favours him a lot. If Tyson was like pac in the lower weights it would be a fair argument
Tyson easily...........he sold out stadiums and did million plus on PPV fighting tomato cans........biggest draw ever if he hadn't lost years in jail........
What the **** do pvp buys have to do with how exciting a fighter is? Mayweather is the supposed ppv king, while he is an incredibly talented fighter, his fights in recent years have been boring as hell.
On topic. As much as i would like to vote Tyson. I have to go with Pacquiao. The reason is, when Tyson fought guys, you though he would beat the shit out of him, when he first lost to Douglas it came as a surprise.
For Pacquiao, when he fought Cotto i didn't know what would happen. To me that is much more exciting than having a pretty good idea of who is going to win.
Same thing with Pacquiao vs Mayweather, i'm rooting for Pacquiao, but i honestly have no idea who is going to win.
I may be biased here coz im a big Pac fan but I have to go with Pacquiao. I remember for a Tyson fight, it's exciting only for the first few rounds because you expect a spectacular KO. After 5 rounds it becomes a bit boring especially since Tyson's stamina is not good.
As for a Pac fight, you expect him to work tirelessly the entire fight.
Depends on who's paying.
I'd rather pay to see Pacman, the fights were action packed and lasted long enough to enjoy the fight.
To see a fight for free I'd go with Tyson of course. The energy around the dude was insane. Its just too bad he blew out those bums so quick that it almost seems like a waste of money.
No contest, Iron Mike brought boxing back in a big, big way. His fights elevated the sport in a way that people hadnt seen since Ali.
Long, long after his prime his fights were still a huge deal, right up to his last.
i never seen pac KO somebody the way Tyson done to berbick. that is the greatest KO of all time in my mind...
Mike Tyson was one of the most exciting fighters in the history of boxing.
I'm not taking anything away from Pac, but you can't pick Pac over Tyson imo.
Tyson all the way.
