    If that isn't prime I don't know what is
    Omgggggg. OK. 31 year old spinks was still in his prime lmaooooooooo.

    OK buddy. So thats his only good win against elites huh ? Lol. This is some clown show stuff now. So Tyson below Ward, Calzaghe and Mayweather then. Thanks for letting me confirm this.

      this isn't reasonable when Manny was offered the money that he was. Anyone would have accepted.

        I enjoy you atleast your honest. We are on the same page. We got a clown on here defending Tysons win against an old scared Spinks. Spinks was an whole decade older then Tyson and had a longer Olympic career.

          I'll back Malbite up on this one, Spinks did that for a payday. he was out of the ring for a year, King offered him some big money for one last hurrah, He layed down early took the dough and left. set the stage for Tysons run. played out perfectly. Spinks didn't come to win, nor was he even prepared for a fight like that. Furthermore, this is probably Mikes BEST win, which is pretty mediocre.

          I would certainly rank Floyd higher than Tyson even if he was not very exciting. Floyd showed dedication throughout his whole career - Tyson fought lower than average competition on a fight night basis - many of his opponents are only recognized because they fought Mike - and so many of them fell over before the bell even rang. Even Mike says this himself.

            I stick to my guns and try to be as unbiased as possible - even if it does not appear so.

            If I made a list - it likely goes

            Floyd
            Calzaghe
            Tyson
            Ward

            Calzaghe and Tyson are close, Tyson is just extremely famous. he still out draws fighters even at 58. Fame does not equal ring accomplishment. Ward is at the bottom because he is a new school fighter. HBO was already cooked. Ward is simply a level below, a glorified amateur. He cannot be rated in the same light - you can see by how they fight , their styles.

              Then he has to stick with the lost. He took the money and fight. No shoulder injury no nothing. I dont want to hear any excuses for manny about Mayweather. It's done and over with. Give Mayweather the credit for the win.

                  I need to pin this reponse. Hes on fire.

                  I swear people on here act like I am crazy for telling the truth.

                  These haters are something else. When the hate dont work they start telling lies lol. I cant believe he wanted to defend that bs win. Prime example Americans would support Tyson but not Ward and Mayweather and Tysons career was overall sub par. Every time he stepped up he lost and got beat down. Never fought Old Foreman or even Bowe !!! The Klitschko's would had folded him too.

                    Thats fair you are entitled to your opinion. I just don't like excuses unless cheating was involved or was in question like Margarito vs Cotto or Pryor and Arguello. I believe manny already made it up in his mind he was going to have an excuse when he lost. His fan base ate it up. People will run with Manny was injured and canelo was too young but allow Tyson win over an older Spinks to stand with out bias. Crazy.

                      If we are giving Tyson credit then give Joe Calzaghe credit for the Hopkins win lol. See these ppl contradict themselves for their idols.
