Tyson hit harder than Foreman and Earnie Shavers

[joseph5620]

Are you claiming Joe Frazier (1973 & 76) was in better condition than the Larry Holmes who Mike Tyson knocked out?

Ken Norton lost every time he fought a puncher, Gerry Cooney nearly killed him in less than 60 seconds.

Holmes & Spinks both KOd by Tyson along with 7 other former champions.


Tyson Knocked Out 9 World Champions
Foreman knocked Out 6 World Champions
Shavers Knocked Out 2 World Champions

Yawn.......

I stopped reading after seeing you include over the hill and inactive Larry Holmes, Marvis Frazier, and Golota.


If you're going to be that ridiculous I can't take you seriously.

BTW, Tyson didn't knock Golota out . Golota quit. Lewis knocked Golota out.

I used Marvis Frazier and Golota as examples of Class B opponents who Tyson knocked out.. Marvis Frazier was an excellent amateur who gained wins over the likes of Joe Bugner, James Tillis, James Broad & former Heavyweight Champion James Smith as a pro. Yet lasted all of 30 seconds against a novice Tyson.. Frazier would be vastly superior to 95% of Foreman & Shavers opponents.

Golota, fought at contender level for several years from the mid 90s to 2005 gaining 3 world heavyweight title fights AFTER being hammered by a shot`Mike Tyson.

No one is being ridiculous here, i am putting over very valid points in this debate. For you to claim not to be able to take these points seriously, comes across as you "Losing the Argument"..it's far better to win the debate with facts, rather than bluster members comments without having any evidence to back it up...Are you claiming Frazier & Golota was not as described in my post?

Yawn.......

i take it that you now acknowledge that you have lost this debate?.. you have lost because you are unable to respond with sufficient evidence of any kind to back up your side of this debate..

So here we have it:


Tyson Knocked Out 9 World Champions
Foreman knocked Out 6 World Champions
Shavers Knocked Out 2 World Champions

Mike Tyson has been proven to be on this forum after deliberation The Hardest Punching Heavyweight Ever!

If you can call winning a debate by:

a) not understnding the rebuttals

b) making ridiculous assertions that would take a day to refute in total

c) boring your opponent through sheer activity and content regardless of how it applies to the argument then you my friend...
KICK some SERIOUS ASS!!!

When we’re young, we have this urge to ”win” every debate.
When we’re getting older, we merely find pleasure in the debate itself.

If you're going to continue to use Foreman in his forties as an example, then I know this is a pointless debate.

But if you want to play that game, Tyson couldn't even beat let alone knock out Danny Williams while in his thirties.


Foreman knocked out the better fighters. Deal with it.


Edit: You listed Holyfield as a Tyson KO victim in 11 rounds LOL! This is nothing more than a Tyson propaganda thread.

So Foreman fought Williams, with busted knee? I haven't yet seen single logical argument from you, all hypothetical nonsense.

I listed how many rounds they fought, without KO.

So if you're not going to give it a proper thought, how about let me have my opinion; If I hade to choose someone to fight of the three in their prime, I would stay as far as possible from Tyson. And I think my wife's echoes the sentiment, and that has nothing to do with him eating my children.

When Foreman fought there was ONE heavyweight champion. When Tyson fought their were several. It matters.

When Foreman fought there was ONE heavyweight champion. When Tyson fought their were several. It matters.

Perhaps you could kindly enlighten us on how it matters?..How it matters that having one heavyweight champion, determines who punched harder Tyson, Shavers or Foreman.

Mike Tyson fought in far more Undisputed Title fights than what Foreman did.

When Tyson fought he unified the titles. After his incarceration he had regained 2 heavyweight titles after only 4 fights.
