Lol well hey if you list GGG over Mike Tyson then man I gotta say I was not expecting to hear anyone say that...a prime Mike Tyson was something else imo...just an unreal talent.Comment

Vs who, though
This is what frustrates me with fight fans. Yes, watching a guy nearly kill guys HE'S SUPPOSED TO KILL can be entertaining (hysterical).Comment

Somebody posted it the other day...but he basically beat every top 10 contender during his run in the late 80s early 90s...his wins over Ruddock, Bruno, Spinks, and Tony Tucker stand out to me.
Mike was 0-3 in some ways vs Lennox and Holyfield...but he wasn't the same guy then imo...and I would list his wins over some of those guys as noteworthy wins as well.
Most guys, even greats, are about even in big time fights and I think Mike was no different...just that 3 of his bigger ones came when he was past it and at the end of his career...he went 5-5 in those last 10 fights including 2 Ls to not good fighters at all.
Holyfield was a great fighter though and always would have been a tough matchup for him though...and Lennox as well.Comment

When the opponent is questionable at best, they are upgraded and losses get explained away.Somebody posted it the other day...but he basically beat every top 10 contender during his run in the late 80s early 90s...his wins over Ruddock, Bruno, Spinks, and Tony Tucker stand out to me.

Even in the weakest div, in the weakest eras, there will be ''top'' guys. Besides Grandpa Holmes and Cashing Out Spinks, what guy did Mike beat have a notable legacy ?
As with LeMeh, Mike was easy pickings the rare times he stepped up.Comment

I gotta say buddy. You've been on this forum for 9 months and managed to rack up almost 5 thousand posts. This is the first one I have noticed and only because you quoted me. You really need to work on this 'posting' thing.Yeah we are going with official resume here... if we were going with subjective resume people would be all over the place...and tbh most neutral people would have GGG way better than it is now since he was probably the better man vs Nelo over the course of those 2 fights.
And if that's all you have for GGG now...you must honestly not know hardly anything about boxing man...idk if you are newish to the sport but maybe study up a bit before posting lol...send me a PM if you have any questions.
Brilliant insights there though...I like your tagline...it suits you
