    Many were predicting Micheal Spinks to win he was 31-21 and was koed in 90 seconds. Thats amazing in my book. This was Tyson's last Prime fight aswell. He fired Kevin later that evening.

    "I was ****ing those Japanese girls like i was eating g****s" I don't know what that means but i guess he ****ed lots of women before the douglas fight. And he wasn't in his prime.

    Holyfield is better at headbutts then that French ****er Zidane.

    Prime Tyson would ass **** Lewis all the way back to London where he would be crying to the queen.

    Thats what i gota say.

    You might want to rethink the Berbick fighting Klitschko statement. That would be target practice for Wladimir.

      Yeah the same Berbick that was previously blown out in the first round by clubfighter Bernardo Mercado. Who won a very close decision against Pinky Thomas, lost it in his first defense against Tyson and never challenged for another title again, even though he fought 24 more times.

      Berbick might be the worst HW title holder ever.

          you can pick apart any heavyweight champions opposition, the point is..Tyson cleaned out his division during his Prime and its not possible that everyone of them ******.

          Tucker, Bruno, Spinks, Holmes and Ruddock were all decent enough fighters.
          Sure he lost to Douglas and Holyfield, but the mans life was in a crisis.

          I would bet my life on it that Tyson would KTFO Klitchko.


          Another good point is, Cus D'amato Trained some other good fighters and he stated him self Tyson was his best project by far, he even predicted Tyson become the youngest heavyweight champion of all time..which was true. I don't think anyone could have stopped Tyson back then.

          Berbick might be the worst HW title holder ever.
          Yea Berbick ****** but he went down in like what 2-3 rounds? Thats not Tysons fault. Spinks and Holmes didn't suck though and they went down just as fast.

          If Berbick was so bad why didn't Thomas KO him in the 2nd round?

            If it wasn't for Michael Bentt and Bruce Seldon...

            Berbick wasn't bad with wins over Tate, Page and Thomas. He wasn't talented but he came into his fights in good condition unlike his opponents.

            Saying he would beat Wladimir is an exaggeration but threads such as this make people pissed off, understandably.

              yes you are correct he might have, leon spinks might have been too.

              what you dont get though gavin, is that unlike your pity little self, they've done a hell of a lot more that your fat couch sitting ass did.

              you are probably the biggest cry baby on this site, constantly finding little perks and complaining about everyone. not just tyson, forget that ****ing guy, i can name a dozen other fighters that you seem to be not satisfied with.

              truth is, they've stepped into the ring, all you do is point your ****ing finger and say this guy is good and this aint. people are entitled to opinions, but you're a hateful critic who seems to set his own standards for what a fighter should be.

              in truth he shouldnt be anything remotely close to what you idealism makes him out to be.

              you catch my drift son?

                Yeah he has a lot of competition, Francois Botha, Herbie Hide, Shannon Briggs, Oliver McCall, etc. I think Mike Tyson was a little overrated, the Iron Mike, the unbeatable Mike, and he continues to be today. But he certainly wasn't MUCH TOO overrated. And considering that he was 5'10 - 5'11" and only 215-220 at his best, he brought us a lot of exciting fights and was very quick as far as HWs go. As a fan of Mike's I bought into the invincible hype and it was a bit of a letdown after Douglas and Holyfield proved how human he really was. Plus I shelled out good money to watch the Holy rematch only to watch him meltdown.
