Totally disagree. He didn't beat anybody in his prime, Holyfield was grossly over-rated who didn't beat anybody either (aside from the forementioned Bowe and a totally 'shot-it' Tyson - nothing to write home about man, sorry).
I didnt say he DID beat anybody in their prime, but he did anyways. The first Bowe Holyfield fight was when they were both in their prime, and Bowe dominated him. And Holyfield beat plently of guys, what the hell are you talking about? Dwight Qawi, Larry Holmes, George Foreman, Riddick Bowe, Mike Tyson, Ray Mercer, Pinklon Thomas, Michael Dokes, Alex Stewart, Bobby Czyz, Michael Moorer, Hasim Rahman, and John Ruiz! Thats a hell of a resume, considering he went toe to toe with these guys when he was usually outsized. He also gave Lewis two close, tough fights when he was past his prime. A 91 Holyfield would have killed Lewis. Are you drunk or something? "Holyfield never beat anybody" :lol1:
hahahahahaha, o man, a Tyson fanboy, perfect.
Tyson has 2 losses to Holyfield when they were at equal stages at their careers. His two best wins come against a blown up lightheavyweight, and an old Larry Holmes, who Holyfield also beat. And how did Tyson do against Lewis? Oh thats right, obliterated, because hes been washed up for 15 years.
Tysons resume is pathetic.
who did he beat, tell me that.....
roy jones beat hopkins, toney, mccallum, pazienza, hill, ruiz, tarver and lucas. tyson beat razor ruddock an old larry holmes and a blown up light heavy
your still mad cause eubank wasnt given a shot by roy when eubank was on the downside of his career....
btw i dont care if tyson cleaned out the heavy's cause that division was weak as fuck, trevor berbick, bruce seldon please......
fucking exactly.
Sturm is far too one dimensional to beat Taylor. All Sturm has is a great jab, like Winky Wright, but Taylor has arguably just as good a jab, as well as an infinitely greater assortment of punches. He also has far better movement and puts his punches together. Sturm might be able to hang with Taylor for a few rounds, but Taylor would start to land combos and eventually outjab the jabber. Taylor by late TKO or UD.
Prime Bowe, on his best night, I would favour him over any heavweight in history. He was huge but mobile, had a great jab, could take a punch, great stamina, carried his power into the later rounds, and was and still is the only big man to have a great inside game.
Too bad he was a binge eating, lazy asshole with absolutely 0 work ethic. He could have dominated the 90s as the Undisputed Champion if he wanted to.
