Who could beat 86-89 Tyson?

[Ascended]

Anyone who could take his punches and dish it out would beat I'm pretty much.

Tyson clearly got discouraged whenever someone wouldn't concede to his power. Being Tyson from 86-89 is no different than the one who fought Douglas. That's a mental thing and I don't believe it would be any different just because it's 86-89

Those quotes are flawed it doesn't matter what you believe anybody who seen Mike knows he was diff in the 86 and is way different then the buster match and any person who brings up a flawed buster match like it means something is a idiot follower Mike beat people better then buster so that quote is idiotic you follower how about bringing up somebody else you follower is buster the only name you know cause that match was flawed like I said how about a knockoff ali name was tillis who beat Mike who was better skilled then buster and moved better

Tillis match showed mike would have gave ali trouble anybody knows mike at his best would destroy buster you idiot

And I told you holy was to small and brawled to much back then thats not a lie nobody beat Mike by brawling so your whole comment makes no sense you follower

Anybody who could take his punches beat him how about razor a man who was tough and hit real hard who Mike beat

Or Larry who at a old age was still tough still got koed and never was koed agian after that match which showed he still was skilled and tough you follower stop reposting dumb quotes

You left out that buster was dropped when he got to relaxed when he thought to brawled like the same way i told you that brawling would be doom for a young holy that shows that Mike at his best would be to much cause his reflexes was way to good and defense was to good for buster so the 86-89 years does make a big difference you slow follower

I see the windup merchant is bumping long dead threads again

[Mteslamiller]

Ali, Holmes, Frazier, Johnson, Louis.

[mrbig1]

Ali Lewis Holyfield Johnson Vitali K and Ike Ibeabuchi.

[Nash out]

Does it stop at 1989 solely because Douglas beat him from pillar to post in 1990?

As I have always said, if Tyson won that night, it would have counted as a prime Tyson win, but 'cause he lost, he's past prime. How very convenient! Nash out.

[StarshipTrooper]

In no particular order, Ali, Louis, Foreman, Liston, Holmes, Johnson. Frazier, Marciano, Holyfield, Dempsey could go either way because of various style matchups. I think he beats Lennox and pretty much any other name someone could come up with.

[StarshipTrooper]

Nash needs to mind his own catch phrase and get the phuck out and stay the phuck out

blah blah blah.

he fought taxi cab drivers and a 90 year old Larry Holmes.

you fan theories are lame excuses.

Holyfield was a cruiser in those years. What I am specifically talking about is a HW Holyfield, which is different than an 86 Holyfield.

Giving Ali trouble is one thing, it's not winning.

And Tyson lost in reality to Douglas. Get out of your make believe world.

The man was no different.

I find it funny that the cut off dates are literally Tyson when he was undisputed – before Tyson's first lost as his prime years.

He lost in his prime. A 6 year prison sentence is valid. But just because he took an L doesn't mean he wasn't in his prime. Regardless of your emotions.

- - Vander in the traditional heavy division back then was not prevented from challenging Mike in 86.

He chose to be diapered in the nascent cruiser division just like Lewie chose to be diapered for another Olympic run, and saying 90s Tyson was anywhere near the 80s Tyson who cleared the stink of the Tubby Lar era is fictional fabrication like U Ali quote.

So, had Tyson lost an arm in his auto accident and come back, he's in his physical prime years, so that makes him Prime?

U in U prime Lameness?

None of that is relevant.

Doesn't matter what Holyfield could've done, he didn't do it.

The only known quantity of Holyfield as a HW is when he was a HW and that is not in 86. So who cares besides people who make silly excuses?

Tyson in those years, in my opinion, would lose to any ATG who could take a punch and dish it. Because June 1990 Mike Tyson is NO DIFFERENT than the one who beat Spinks.

It's like the same clowns who claim Canelo wasn't in his prime fighting Floyd. Dude was 23 with 40 fights, he was in his f/ucking prime.
