    ill go on record saying lewis would beat tyson if both were in their prime, like you said though, i dont have a normal brain, mine is roughly three times the size of a normal one. It also contains 8 times the memory recall and 50 times more accurate boxing predictions than a normal brain.

        A prime vs prime matchup was always a very interesting fight to me.

        7-10 times this fight goes for Tyson.

          im not tryin to make any enemies, just making a joke.

          lewis would beat tyson the same way he did when he was washed up. lewis was not prime when he beat tyson, not even close, he was overweight and undermotivated. his skills, ability and confidence were much greater than anyone who ever fought tyson, he would have beaten him very similar to the way douglas did. however i dont think tyson would be KO'ed in his prime, i think the fight would go the distance and lennox would win on points, and i dont see why anyone would think that is crazy. tyson has never in his career shown the ability to fight hard into the later rounds against a tough fighter and he would not have passed the test against lewis.

            I think the fight would most likely go the distance. I can agree tyson has some trouble in the later rds., but cant see him losing.

              The same way Douglass did, use the jab to keep Tyson honest and clinch when he get's close.

                haha i was about to say prime lewis beats prime tyson 7/10

                i just dont think tyson ever beat a fighter who not only
                was as big as lewis, but was as good. tyson destroyed
                a weak division & then got exposed by one of those guys.

                yeah tyson has the power to ko lewis but i still think
                a fight in thier prime wouldnt of been alot different
                to when they met, where tyson was completely shot.

                tyson would of been hot in the first 3rds, after that utter
                lewis dominance IMO. tyson bowing out like a gay

                  That's just absurd.
                  He was unmotivated for the biggest fight of his career.

                    Well, there allot of big guys out there that don't use there guys. Look at Wlad for example and Vitali as well, they crouch down when fighting opponents and dont use their heights. So you have to give props to Lewis for being a big guy who used his height very well, that and he beat every opponent he ever faced (avenged all his loses).

                      He was unmotivated for the biggest fight of his career.
                      lmfao tyson wasnt the biggest fight of his career.

                      i gave tyson a slim punchers chance in that fight.
                      it was jsut a big name fight, nothing more

                      definately meant nothing to the hw division
