      They are all greats in the division, but that's why people will always remember Tyson.

      The reason why MMA has gotten so popular is because it gives fans the chance to see a KO in 3 minutes. They don't want to wait 30 minutes. The American attention span is very short.

      He KO'd 1 Seldon, Williams and Spinks in Championship fights only. But the K's have higher KO percentages. And as an example, no way would Donovan Ruddock have lasted twelve rounds against either Klit. Not a prayer.

        Metaphorically speaking. Tyson finished guys before 6. Klits finish guys after 6.

          Learn what a metaphor is.

            Lewis is a truly great HW. In an alltime league, he'd end in the top 5.
