      Floyd is much more skillful, one of the most skillful fighters of all time, actually.
      Don't bother to explain,these threads you just gotta laugh at.

        Tyson had a great defense and some incredible reflexes for a man his size.
        Most of his opponents was to affraid to punch back, because they were to intimidated by his offense.

        I should've said: "defense he actually had to use".

          Mayweather can slip the jab. Mayweather has the discipline Tyson never had. Mayweather doesn't drink or do drugs.

            Tyson was more versatile and had far more tools in his arsenal to work with than does/did Floyd. He was just a head case and couldn't keep it all together.

                Mike Tyson had Incredible defense that Is very often over looked due to his phenomenal offense. For a very brief time In his career he would of stood In there and held his own with the greatest heavyweights In history.

                  Tyson has better defence or at least equal and much better offence.

                  Agree or disagree and why?
                  The focus Tyson was far better than Mayweather if we had a mini Tyson trained by Rooney at welter he would have clobbered Gsyweather
