Prime Tyson (85-89) is the single most exhilarating boxer of alltime. Even now, decades later, one gets goose bumps watching a prime Mike spark fighters in a round for two.
I know Mike didnt last that long as a prime fighter, really just those 4/5 years and he fell away massively. But amongst great heavyweight fighters, who do you feel could have beaten a peak Tyson?
His speed and power, together with combination punching, were simply awesome.
I can see the case for peak Ali (agree that prime Ali beats prime MT 7/10 times) but must honestly feel that no one else at their peak would best a peak Tyson more then he would best them.
Opinions.
