Comments Thread For: Mike Tyson Tabs Joshua as "Best of The Lot" at Heavyweight

[Sktherealdeal]

Mike Tyson is saying this because he doesn't like Wilder. He's doing this to get under his skin. Mike Tyson needs to sit down somewhere and get the other side of his face tattooed

So pained. Tyson is an easy guy after retirement and doesn't court controversy. He is just saying what everyone already knows.

Mike could actually believe this, but after his little squabbles with Wilder it's hard to know for sure.

Ortiz was 37. Now he is 38, is still the most avoided heavyweight out there. A 40 plus year old Klitschko coming off of a loss and a career long layoff is the only top level fighter on AJ's resume. He came a lot closer to losing to Klitschko than Wilder did vs. Ortiz.

Joshua ducked Wilder so Tyson's comment means nothing. Tyson can't live with the fact that Wilder is the baddest man on the planet because he thinks he has a permanent hold on that.

I respect Tyson because he was a student of boxing outside the ring. He watched a lot of fighters past and present. A lot of people will look at his career but this man knows a thing or two about boxing. And notice what he said below. He told the truth and I have to agree with him based on how he accessed it. Now part of it is Wilder said he could destroy Tyson-LOL!!!

“He’s the stronger guy, bigger guy, more put together as far as boxing skills are concerned as well.”

Wilder 6-7, 227 lbs. Wilder 3 year amateur career, 30-5, national golden gloves and US Championship winner 2007, bronze medal Olympics 2008, 10 year professional career. Won first belt, WBC Belt, 7 years after turning pro.

Joshua 6-6, 249lbs. Joshua 6 year amateur career, 40-3, gold medalist Great Britain Championships 2010, silver medalist World Championships 2011, Gold Medalist Olympics 2012, named prospect of the year by Ring Magazine in 2014 after tuning pro in 2013, 5 year professional career. Won first belt, IBF, 2 & 1/2 years after turning pro. Held IBF, IBO, WBO, WBA “Super” HW belts 4 & 1/2 years after turning pro.

Drugs have fried this guys mind. He was brilliant in his early 20s in mind body spirit but he is way too dumb nowadays

Joshua should be ranked no.1 right now as of today

I personally don't think he beats Wilder or Fury but that's person opinion and i also think the winner of that fight is probably no.1

Because he said that Joshua was the best Heavyweight? lol you Wilder fanboys are unbelievable. Objectively Joshua is clearly #1 in the world at Heavyweight.

your jumping to conclusions. my statement wasn't in relation to either both of those divas.

give me some rep as an apology

Can't blame him. Floyd fights to a boring decision every time and wilder says he could beat him. A prime 80's Tyson would have broke wilder in half like the skinny tooth pick he is.

I think he's hates on Floyd because of the money and most boxing critics rank Floyd over him overall P4P. Tyson is not a 10 great of all time. Maybe not even top 20. It's debatable.
