    Hey Iron Man, I was thinking about doing a computer tournament for the Heavyweights. Round robin, everyone fights everyone. No single elimination.

        Sure thing! I need to check and see what my bout limit is. I want each fighter to fight all the others five times each to keep fluky results from having too much influence.

            Well, overall winning pct. wins the tournament. It should make for some interesting discussions as to who beat who and why.

                A prime mike tyson was unbeatable/unstoppable (1986 - 1988) after this u saw him steadily deteorating, when he lost to buster douglas he actually knocked him out for 13 seconds if u c correctly so in reality he didnt even lose... and as for him against lewis he was far past his prime nd on medication at the time. Tyson sparred with Lewis in 1984 nd in the first round he knocked him out of the ring... so wat dus tht say? a prime mike tyson had the speed of a welterweight nd the power of a semi-truck. He easily wud have beaten muhammad ali as u could compare him to joe frazier who had beaten muhammad ali before. Also majority of mike tysons fights were 1 - 4 knockouts, muhammad ali's weren't. Mike Tyson would have continued as maybe the greatest heavyweight of all time if cus was stil by his side along with kevin rooney, i believe he could have beaten any heavyweight during his peak, shame he peaked for a short period though.

                    Tyson infact did beat him.... he knocked him out for 13 seconds, and as for him losing he didnt even train for the fight nd was past him prime nd had lost the passion for boxing. A 1986 - 1988 Tyson could beat any of the greatest heavyweights.

                    http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=9C619rzN98Q - this is the video that proves that he didnt even lose to buster douglas!!!

                      Ok, lets not go down the road of tyson was a God, he wasnt. And dont get me wrong im a MASSIVE tyson fan, probably a much bigger one than you. Just take a step back and think before you write, he mayb your idol and that but he is still human. Many of the Greats would have been able to beat tyson, Ali, Louis, Holmes. But tyson IMO would have been able to beat them aswell it would be an amazing fight between tyson and any other great. And most would go either way. And "in reality" he didnt lose to douglas??! huh in reality he did lose. Lets get that straight Tyson was first to admit he fought a good fight. But yes tyson didnt prepare and he had to lose weight quick, but the he knocked him out thing is kinda weak, i mean no1 can know if Buster would of beat the count, but the fact is he did. If its any consilation to you Tyson was winning on the cards.. And Easily would of beaten Ali! erm.. you say cose he was comparable to Frazier! ask frazier if any of he fights with Ali were easy! "Also majority of mike tysons fights were 1 - 4 knockouts, muhammad ali's weren't." ok and that means nothing, ones a big puncher who has the ability for these wins, it doesnt make one a better fighter only more exciting. I agree with your last statement tho!! can i stress im a big tyson fan ask any1 here! but you have to see things both ways in a debate
