    Had Tillis not been through Wars, would he have KO'd Tyson?

    Revisiting this bout. I'd say Tillis neutralized some range with his jab, and ate crazy ass shots from Tyson haymakers... The fact that it went the distance, and some trades in the 10th rocking Tyson close to the final bell, Tillis was a tough sob and the score cards were like 60/40 vs. comparing the Mitch Green, James Smith, or Tony Tucker (maybe), those were a shut out. Buster being quicker than Tillis doe taking some rocks to the face...

    Tillis vs Tyson was a great bout imo.

      ? Tillis had good movement. The 10th trade off was great, and that mean left hook by Tillis in the final seconds had Tyson spewing unbalanced. Tillis was a beast. Too bad it wasn't a 12 rounder.

          Tillis moved like Ali, or rather copied him with sidesteps and pivots and the jabs. Probably the pressure or confidence that Dundee barked into Tillis.
