Comments Thread For: Mike Tyson Tabs Anthony Joshua as The Top Heavyweight

[Cybervato74]

Most choices in the life of Iron Mike have been suspect, I see no difference now

[Oshio]

Wilder should accept Joshua as the #1 for now until the two guys fight each other.

[JWHardin]

Mike Tyson is a piece of **** as a person, but was a great boxer for a few years.

I would not consider any statement from him to be something anyone with a half a brain would consider as legit.

He is he most psycho person to ever step in the squared circle.

Are you a troll or a ******?

"The biggest fight in world Heavyweight boxing doesn't involve Joshua at all" he's got the biggest draw by far than any Heavyweight and and pretty much any current active boxer and he has most the belts (3/4 75% to you and 4/5 80% to people that recognize the IBO). You could bet all your money that it'd would be recognized by Fury or Wilder if one of them owned it for the upcoming fight. So it's bigger money and for undisputed and its not bigger?

Not to mention many dispute Fury's claim to the lineal title as he prounounced himself retired and got popped for peds claiming it to he because of boar meat. So Wilder Fury isn't even a unification to many.

Only wilder boys think fighting a rehab patient is the biggest fight in HW.
Illusion at its best, Lolx.

what a shame the psychos back on the Colombian marching powder he just don't like it theres a heavyweight in America who hits like a mule and will flatten the uk stay at home coward thought he looked out of it the other night these comments by him confirm it roll up the note straight up his nose........

Lolx.... 22 said same thing you just wrote, 22 tried and 22 failed.

Only one got to the finished line. Trust me, wilder will not get to the finish line.

Why? Because they gave their belt to AJ for free?

No, because he fought for it.

[N/A]

No, because he fought for it.

So if he fought for the IBA or WBF title, you would lie and say they're world titles as well? Do you see how it's impossible for you to have any credibility when nobody in boxing recognizes the IBO as a world title, but you pretend it's a world title just because AJ is the champion?

If wilder had it, his fans would have claimed it's the most prestigious belt in history and besides he would have have a better standing in negotiations.

That's by the way, IBO have one of the best rankings in HW. Believe it or not, that's the fact.

hard to argue against that

[Jax teller]

Who are these people? Nobody in the sport recognizes the IBO. This website only recognizes the IBO because they're paid by the IBO to recognize the IBO.

The WBA doesn't recognize the IBO. The WBO doesn't recognize the IBO. The WBC doesn't recognize the IBO. The IBF doesn't recognize the IBO. Sky Sports instituted a policy to ban IBO title fights. Showtime doesn't recognize the IBO. ESPN doesn't recognize the IBO. Matchroom Boxing doesn't recognize the IBO. Hearn himself admitted it's not a proper title.

At heavyweight, there's no sanctioning fee for the IBO title. The IBO gives the belt for free to the most prominent champion. AJ just carries it around to fool idiots like you into thinking he has more world titles than he really does.

Way to go arguing a point that I said was only recognized by some people, ignoring the rest and thats 80% of the belts if you're trying to manipulate what I said into looking like I was saying was 80% all people. Personally it doesn't matter if to me as he has 3 or 4 its still 75% of the belts without the IBO. Also it still remains the biggest Heavyweight fight does involve AJ and he IS the No.1 Heavyweight.
