    The reason Tyson started losing was because he dropped Rooney as his trainer and started neglecting the basics to head hunt. His lifestyle just got to his head. Tyson should be considered no higher than Naseem Hamed; both were exciting dominant champions for a short period and then got arrogant, throwing away everything they had. The only difference is that Tyson staggered on beating bums and being easily beaten by world class fighters. Neither one beat a world class fighter.
    Tyson was beat by better fighters simple as that Lewis and Holyfield would have beaten him at any stage of his career

    Buster Douglas probably not but who knows

    he got beaten by Holyfield because Holyfield was a better fighter and Lewis would have beaten him at any stage anyway

        I didn't put no spin I spoke the truth. and the reasons you gave were also big reasons for his downfall but I think he would've lost to holyfield and lewis regardless just because of their height advantage. tyson was having trouble with far lesser tall fighters even early on in his career. he got a UD against 6'5" Mitch Green and Green was a terrible boxer but he was smart enough to keep his distance and use his jab throughout the fight. Bonecrusher Smith isn't a terrible fighter but tyson also had problems with him and he is 6'4. this is all in tyson's prime when he was doing his so called "head-hunting". and you can add tony tucker 6'5 and buster douglas 6'4 to that list as well. fact is, tyson's height was more of a problem than anything else. its a shame cruiserweights don't get nearly as much acclaim as the hw division cuz he would have been an unstoppable juggernaut in that division.
