What the **** planet are you living on?

Earth, but I don't know about you. I judge a fighter on his actual physical ability rather than things he said or bad things he did. Around 86-87, he was the closest thing to invincible that we've ever seen in a boxing ring and if you can't see that then you must be a ******.

hahah, that is comical
I judge a boxer on physical ability rather that things he did. (like winning and losing) you said it yourself, for TWO YEARS he was invincible, after that, he went way downhill. you judge a boxer on what he did in the ring, wins, losses and the way they win, not on potential and physical capabilities

Oh no I have a different view of something, I must be ******ED!!

How the hell can you judge a fighter on his physical ability as opposed to how they actually used that ability?

What seperates Mike from the rest of the greats is his heart. He never once showed the ability to come back after being behind in a fight. He never once came back after being knocked down. When he was losing, he started resorting to some of the most disgraceful tactics in boxing history. Whenever his heart was tested, Mike ****ing folded.

Tyson looked great against bums.WOW big freaking deal.Did Tyson ever beat a world class fighter?Nope did Tyson ever beat a hall of famer?Nope..So beating 3rd tier bums makes you a all time great?Cute so alot of fighters are great then.Jeremy Williams looks great when fighting bums but gets his azz knocked out just like Tyson when he fights a decent fighter.
And thanks JarlAxe at least you can see Joe Louis was overrated.They didnt call the fighters he fought bum of the month because they were great.He piled up a impressive record fight low level fighters.If Louis had to fight the Foremans Frazier Nortons or guys from the 90's and beyond like Bowe,Lewis,Tua,Ibeabuchi the man would of never became champion.

Yes he did beat Larry Holmes & Michael Spinks.

Since when have Pinklon Thomas and Tony Tubbs been bums? They were World Champions for YEARS. Tyson aside, an undefeated TNT Tucker at his best is the best Heavyweight since Ali and Holmes, people forget just how awesome Tucker was and that he was the favourite in the Tyson fight. Pinklon had skills to boot and Tubbs had so much potential, you really do not know your boxing.

Nobody even landed cleanly on a Catskills Tyson, ever, it wasn't until he left the Catskills after the Spinks fight that he even got caught properly with a punch. I think you people need your heads and eyes tested.
