This Day in Boxing History: Douglas Beats Tyson

[A-Wolf]

No A-Poodle. You said Tyson was viewed as the best HW at that time. I proved you wrong. You been dancing around trying to change subjects ever since.

NO, idiot. You tried to show me the rankings.

It's right here in this thread to see and YET you still try and deflect. Seems obvious you're worried what others will think of you. Feeling embarrassed?

[Robbie Barrett]

See again, I'm not sure if this deliberate subversion of the discussion or inadvertent ******ism.

You understand I at no point talked about who was ranked or rated when this discussion started? YES OR NO?? I asked who would WIN.

Again. Are you a liar or an idiot? Both is what I'm guessing.

You said Tyson was viewed as the best HW. The ring Magazine was voted on by experts on who they viewed as the best HW's. Tyson wasn't viewed as #1 by those experts.

Is that too hard to understand?

4 years in prison has no weight on who they view as the best at that time, Tyson was a title holder FFS. Vitali Klitschko was retired for 4 years and when he came back was straight in at #2 because he was viewed as the 2nd best HW.

It's not difficult.

No it's not difficult. You're a liar and an idiot. And a coward I've learned.

No A-Poodle. You got owned, You made claims and were proven wrong. You then tried to regain "honour" by trying to be an internet tough guy. You're pathetic and this thread is evidence of that.

[Robbie Barrett]

Revise history much? I see you like to revise your statements as well from "best Heavyweight" to "undisputed #1 at HW" when you get challenged.

Tyson was a 25-1 favorite when he fought Holyfield the first time. People feared for Evander's life. Without any shred of doubt Tyson was considered the "best" Heavyweight by a long margin in 95-96' when he got out of prison.

Absolute rubbish. Many viewed Lewis as better. You know the guy Tyson ducked. Lewis had to take him to court and Tyson paid him off to fight Seldon.

You're telling me that the majority of people including experts would have picked Lewis over Tyson in 95-96'??? GTFOH!

I'm telling you most experts had Lewis ahead of Tyson in the rankings. Tyson was never viewed as the #1 HW post prison.

Ring Magazine 95 = Lewis #2, Tyson #3

Ring Magazine 96 = Lewis #2, Tyson #3
http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Th..._Ratings:_1996

When was Tyson #1?

A-Poodle then tried to say these ratings by experts didn't count.

A-Poodle then made excuses about Tyson being in prison.

A-Poodle then tried to be an internet tough guy because of "honour"

LMAO yes you've "proven" that whatever the rankings say is the reality of who the best fighter is.

THAT'S YOUR ENTIRE ARGUMENT.

Whichever guy is arbitrarily ranked by Ring Magazine at any given time is automatically the actual best fighter.



You've "proven" that in 1995-1996 Lennox Lewis - the guy that had been sparked out by Oliver McCall only one year previous and who wasn't really even on the radar at the highest levels of the game at that point was "better" than Mike Tyson even though virtually nobody ON EARTH made that sort of contention at the time. Keep bringing the laughs, idiot..

Two more questions because it's clear you have no clue whatsoever what you're talking about:

How old are you?

When did you start following boxing?


I'm heading to the gym. Looking forward to seeing your responses when I return.

Take your L A-Poodle.

Ring Magazine = The opinion of a panel of boxing experts. That panel didn't view Tyson as #1. Definitely not as the "best heavyweight by a long margin" like your ridiculous claim.

Maybe it was him ducking Lewis that gave them that opinion? Tyson paid him millions to fight lower ranked Seldon instead.

He then dropped the title instead of fighting Lewis, to fight lower ranked Holyfield who had lost 2 of his last 4 fights.

He was certainly on Tysons radar. Tyson altered course to avoid him.

[McNulty]

Douglas was aware of what happened by the count of six and was on his feet standing straight up with all his faculties by nine.

You need to learn how to count. He was on his back at 10 still. I gave you a fùcking video lol. Is it not enough to give a video with someone counting?
