      Prime Iron Mike Tyson with Cus D’Amato was unstoppable and would’ve retired undefeated as the greatest heavyweight champion of all time if Cus never died!

      People keep saying if you stood up to Tyson you could beat him but he has faced people who stood up to him and weren’t afraid and it didn’t matter!

      It was only until he lost focus and didn’t have the man who could guide him and rein him in was when he lost his head and his step!

        In his prime, Toney was a middleweight / super middleweight.

            This guy is still on the hype train that crashed and burned 30 years ago.

              Toney was a very fat light heavyweight who fought extremely well for a guy about 50 pounds overweight. He never won a real heavyweight title. He had a great chin and was clever. Tyson at his best is generally considered one of the better or even best heavyweights. Nobody ever rated Toney as one of the best heavyweights to my knowledge. Toney was fairly easily defeated by Peters. Prime Tyson would murder Toney in my opinion. No contest. Of course they can't actually fight in their primes but that is my best guess of what would happen if they could fight in their primes.

                I don't think it matters how many rounds the fight is for because prime Tyson KOs any version of Toney long before round 12.

                  Well, that's a hard question because the only time both guys were in the same weight division, neither was prime.

                  So, you have to kind of split it up.

                  Prime Tyson beats old Toney at HW

                  Old Tyson probably loses to Old Toney at HW in the early 2000s.

                  Remember Old Toney beat Evander's ass.
