Tyson lost to a shot Evander holyfield, remember how bad he looked in the third fight with Bowe. Evander was spent when he beat Tyson but he had enough left to deal with Tyson. Without the imtimindation factor Tyson was one dimensional. His work could be nuertalized quite easy (see Bonecrusher Smith, Tony Tucker ). A decent chin, an intent of attack and fast reflexes is all one needed to beat Tyson. Yes, Tyson was fast in his prime and had great power but he could be shut down and out hustled. I believe Holydfield would hve beaten Tyson had they met in 1991. It was mind over matter. Holyfield was one of the mentally toughest fighters ever while Tyson was one of the weakest, it didn`t what Tyson would have done, Evander would have dominated him.
Reality check for all Tyson fans!!!!
