        not sure if this was mentioned but, the early part of a guys career is the easiest. so why is it strange to find guys are ''better'' at 20 than later ? they get to flex on no hopers.

          Because somebody who really knows boxing, can analyze a persons skillset (speed, reflexes etc) and not who they fought.

          Vargas was a better fightr early then late 20s

                  Not all were bums, especially compared to the actual real "bums" of the Klitschko era.

                  I wouldn't consider Tony Tucker, Frank Bruno and Razor Ruddock bums.

                  I definitely think the more focused Tyson during those early 20 years would have done a lot better against Holyfield than the late 20's Tyson. In my humble opinion.

                    Best fighter Tyson beat at the time of the fight was Razor Ruddock
