This is pretty ****** to think about because any fighter who beat all of the guys he lost to would be known as the best ever. What if Joe Louis beat all of the guys he lost to? Muhammad Ali? Jack Dempsey?
Tyson lost to those guys for a reason. He wasn't good enough at that period in time. Do I think prime '87/'88 Tyson beats all of the guys he lost to? Yes. Does that make me rank him as the best heavyweight ever? No. Simply because that is my educated guess and it didn't really happen so nobody knows.Comment

Lol what? The 80s heavyweights were **** when Tyson got to them!Luis Castillo and Marcos Maidana was Floyd Mayweather's Buster Douglass but difference be that Tyson got KOed by his dude If he got to the cards he'd have took the win via robbery just like Floyd did.
Mike Tyson fought in a much stronger era and in a division where it only takes one punch to genuinely change the outcome unlike Floyd who has fought at lower weight divisions guys who don't have much of a power shot.Comment
