    thats not ring savy thats flat out cheating. the headbutt in the seventh round was awful and really ****ed tyson up badly.

      Tyson was dominated in that fight from round one. He was knocked down in the 6th the headbut did not change the course of the fight at all.

        but tyson landed some good punches up to the 5th round. remember in the 5th when he threw a right hook to the body and then and uppercut that buckled holyfield. dont tell me the headbutts and elbows didnt have an effect on tyson.

          I remember Tyson landing about one good combination in that fight. I think it was in the 5th round. A left to the body and then an uppercut besides than it was nill for him. One good combination in an entire fight is really nothing gloat about. And it didn't buckle Holyfield.

            just like you have to consider barrera better than pacman even though he lost to him.

            barrera beat morales, who beat pac, who beat barrera.

            anyway tyson was drugged for the lewis fight if he would have been more aggressive he could of koed him. the first round was good for him but then that was it.
            but remember, styles makes fights, so just because barrera beat morales, that doesnt mean that he can convincingly beat pacman, their styles just dont match.

                  y do u hav to consider barrera better than him
                  IMO barrera is nothing man, morales is the best

                  barrera doesn't take on the toughest he can find
                  morales does
                  and he stays active like mad

                  takes on chavez, then hernandez, then barrera, then morales, then raheem (which is suppose to be a tuenup), then most likely will face pac again
                  barera loses to pac, comes back almost a year later and beats an old ayala, then gets by morales then beats fana (o wow lol), now peden

                    i know im just saying that hes ranked higher because he beat morales, who beat pac, who beat barrera.

                    its just a lot of different stuff to consider.

                      If Tyson would've beat Lewis....

                      He wouldn't have lost to Holyfield either...

                      You're basically asking....where would Tyson be if he had some heart...
