Why do so many people rank Tyson above Holyfield on ATG list?

[Larry the boss]

People may be thinking of the Tyson from 86-Douglas, after which he himself said he was not the same anymore.

He also recently admitted to having breathing problems, I presume mild asthma or such, so did pretty good considering.

But in those years, he sure had great speed and power to have troubled any HW. But maybe his chin and mental weaknesses were his Achilles heel. He maybe had a decent chin, but not a great one.

Maybe like Liston vs Clay (I). If you didn't fight the "bully" scared ****less, you had a shot.

tyson didnt have a good chin???lmfao..wow..just wow

Not what I saw vs Douglas and Holyfield.
Most fighters were too scared to throw much at him, those who did and had some pop...

sorry my thread does sound like im just trying to hate on tyson; maybe i am a little bit simply because of how great everyone thinks he is, and how highly he is ranked despite never beating anyone all that impressive. and you'd be surprised how many people rank tyson over holyfield
