Check how Destructive Prime Tyson used to be

[Randall_Hopkirk]

yeah, you have your opinion, im fine with that,

For me this prime version of tyson hits that little bit harder than punching legends such as oliver mc call and Hasim Rahman.

Come on, Rahman has KO'd Mario Cawley and Rob Calloway are you saying tyson could do that? I'm doubtful.

Tyson at that time was as destructive as anyone in the history of boxing. Neither prime Lewis nor Holyfield would have lasted long against a 1988 Mike Tyson.

Tyson is the embodiment of when GREAT goes bad

I dunno, thats a tough one apparently Calloway was one the most talented amatuer even seen in the US, he beat Vitali Kit. in the amatuers, and they said he had the skills to give Ali a run for his money in his prime, thing is,

Rob had a weak bladder, he couldnt hold it in, he would just piss everywhere, over the ring, the ropes, the faces of bystanders,

Eventually they had to surgically attach a bag to him, after that, he was never the same again.

Tony Tucker took Tyson the distance during his so-called prime. Are you telling me two all time greats like Lewis and Holy couldn't have done the same? Plus, don't give me the nonsense that Tyson paced himself because he wanted to test his stamina over 12 rounds. Tyson vs Lewis in their respective primes is up in the air. I don't mean to sound like a Tyson hater, but he looked impressive against average opposition, not the stuff of legend.

Tyson fought the best of the time, highly regarded boxers, and went through them like a hot knife goes through butter. I saw those fights at the time as they were being broadcast, and I'm telling you, you're underestimating Tyson. I've seen Lewis at his peak KOed by McCall and struggle against others, but Tyson at his peak dominated everyone he faced.

[TheEvilSaint]

it goes without saying, tyson was a helluva fighter.

[realheavyhands]

lewis was knocked out by tysons sparring partner

[hugh grant]

Its a shame that history judges you over so many years and not how good you were at your peak. People say Tyson would have destroyed Lennox Lewis but i think when top 10 heavyweights are shown LL was above Tyson last time i looked.
