Fighter of the Generation (Redone)

I wouldnt select Tyson, but I could see how the rational people who would. 100 years from now, no fighter helped (and hurt) the sport as much as Tyson.

When Tyson clicked on all cylinders, he would easily handle Lewis and possibly Holyfield. Tyson is just a mental midget.

I hate going to popularity route, but Tyson truly is a house hold name.

I didn't see it that way. I saw the poll as who has made people watch boxing and can also fight themselves out of a paperbag. So I voted for Tyson.

You're both confusing popularity with acheivment and true greatness.

Tyson has nothing on the rest of those fighters, and anyone who suggests otherwise isn't thinking with their head, or doesn't know very much about boxing.

Well if we're talking about true greatness as in ability than it might be Jones but I didn't see that the poll was asking that. I saw overall greatness as in popularity, skill, etc. To me thats Tyson. His popularity and good skill far outweighed the skill and mild popularity of Jones.

Again, by your laughable definition, WWE is 'greater' than boxing.

Come off it.

Once again, LOOK at the list of fighters. If you rate Tyson above the other fighters on that list in terms of accomplishtment, you have no idea what you're talking about.
