    Tyson lost all his major fights he was involved in....he even paid lewis 4 million so he didnt have to face him.
    Took the distance by tillis,green,smith,tucker and only beat medicre challeners or an old larry holmes....GTFOH clueless
    Weird that you talk so bad about prime Tyson, when you mention shot to bits Tyson first when listing Lummox's best wins.

          I like tyson and i also like what type of person he has become but when some idiot like this guy pipes up and states that tyson would walk right through him then he has to be put back in his place....ok tell me one hall of famer tyson actually beat besides an old larry holmes or a lightheavyweight michael spinks...come on brains tell me ? Lewis 9 times out of ten would beat a prime mike tyson....to big , to long and to clever and that's as simple as that nelson and they could have settled this feud in 1996 but tyson refused to face lewis and paid 4 million and when he was finally ordered to face lewis he vacated his title ...lewis had his faults but his resume and record pisses all over tysons who was only at the top for 3 years and the 2 names he beat was a terrified michael spinks and an old comebacking larry holmes and thats facts

            No i will post tyson struggling with a tillis or mitch green, tony tucker or even a bonecrusher smith..when as a champion Tyson boxed cans most of his heavyweight defences and i expected a bit more from someone who pretends to know boxing like yourself nelson

              How about you telling us which prime hof'ers LL beat?

              I am not into arguing that much about who beats who in fantasy fights, but I will be of the opinion that you cannot form an opinion of the outcome of a fight between prime Tyson and prime Lewis on their actual fight, since Tyson was as far removed from his prime as Ronald Reagan is.

                  Look you don't pay 4 million dollars to side step another fighter and you don't vacate your belt because you don't want to face a fighter....that was in 1996 and when tyson demolished frank bruno in the rematch..when matched up against common opponents lewis faired much better...with ruddock, with holyfield , with tucker....when you compare resumes and acchivements lewis pisses all over mike tysons and thats written in the books , bowe avoided lewis , tyson avoided lewis not the other way round and you don't avoid a fighter if you know you can beat them...go ask canelo ...lewis beats tyson almost every time ...if tyson didnt get you out early he became in effective..mike tyson lost every major fight of his career besides a tiny michael spinks and a past it larry holmes....who else ? lewis handled fighter essily who tyson had life and death battles with...tucker,ruddock,holyfield and even golota ...klitchko was in his prime when lewis beat him and he was 38 as well.
                  Tyson was fine knocking over the tony tubbs of this world but when he faced up to a fighter with equal skill he lost...facts

                    Welp, that settles it. Doesn't matter if past prime or not. Beat em at there worst means you'd beat em at their best. If I dug up Joe Louis, Dempsey, Marciano, and Ali, knocked them around would I be considered an all time great?

                      What settles is that tyson lost to every hall of famer he faced....thats if you take away an old larry holmes or lightheavyweight michael spinks when he came up against a boxer who could move and also punch back...he got beat badly...fact
