Tyson vs Lewis Primes

[J.Dempsey]

i stand by my theory that tyson in his prime, without the mind *** ups that occured wud've beat anyone..

yeh lennox has a good jab, but tyson was trained to close his fighter down n ktfo off him, as being around 5'11" was short for a heavyweight

LMAO at Tyson nuthuggers

Tyson best defensive fighter ever = myth concocted by Tyson nuthugger Hank Kaplan.

Prime Tyson best ever, unbeatable, whoops everyone = Deluded fantasy of fan-bois who can't get past their syncophantic hero worship.

That being said, Tyson wins 6 out 10 in this matchup: Not because he's unbeatable but because he's marginally better than Lewis who ALSO isn't the best Heavyweight ever.

I stand by my theory that the majority of Tyson fans (not ALL, thank God) are delusional, KoolAid drinking, nuthugging fan-boiswho who get boners from watching quick KOs against tomato-cans and wouldn't know real greatness in a fighter if bit them on the ass.

That's a crazy thing to say. "That idiot Dempsey" as you call him is in the top 10 of most Heavyweght ATG lists, and most rank him a lot higher than Tyson overall.

Jack Johnson is rated by many experts as the greatest defensive boxer of all time. He's gets in the top 10 of most ATG P4P lists.

Who ranks Dempsey higher than Tyson?

I have a bunch of upper tier HW's rated higher than Tyson and Dempsey isn't one of them. Might want to check out his resume and tell us why you think Dempsey is rated higher.

Dempsey didn't go near 40-0 in his career, and his competition wasn't as good. (which is pretty bad because Tyson's competition is considered average at best).

Tyson...He would be to fast for Lewis imo.

Tyson=the most overated fighter ever (apart from maybe Ali).

Are you saying that Ali wasn't over rated?

If you're the #1 ATG Heavyweight how is one overrated?

I hear a lot of people call him the greatest fighter ever.

That's different from calling him the #1 heavyweight.
