    Who was the most dominant fighter in their prime: Tyson, Jones or Pacquiao ?

    Of these three fighters, who was the most dominant in their primes?

    I know they did in the different ways (staying at the weight, moving up in weight, knocking out bigger guys, etc). However, I think we can still compare/contrast.

    Also, Pac's career isn't over yet but consider if he were to retire right now.

    Please vote on the poll. thanks.

      Easy Iron Mike... it was strange if any of his fights lasted more than 1 round

        I'm a big Pac fan. But I don't think this should even be a debate. No one in the history of the fight game dominated like the young Iron Mike Tyson.

                Roy Jones and it isn't even close.

                Tyson's era of HW was the weakest we have seen up to that time. He fought bums until he faced decent opposition and got beat.

                Roy dominated for over a decade.

                  if dominant over a longer period of time against consistently strong opposition? then it's a tossup between pacquiao and rjj. rjj's dominance may be longer but pac's opposition throught the years since 112 is more impressive so that evens out. tyson was a real badass and he completely dominated during his time, but it was so short compared to the two.

                    A RJJ fan accusing someone of only fighting bums... Oh the Irony.
