Mike Tyson in his prime was a sight to behold but he's just too small for today's heavyweights, Lewis beat him and he was an excellent champ, fury is even better than Lewis, not many big men can dance around the ring and pick off their opponent the way he does, no one beats him past or present |

"Peak Mike Tyson beats any previous/current World Heavyweight Champion? Discuss! "
A peak Mike gets in close to fury and use the left hook and uppercut but can’t take away how good fury is with his boxing knowledge..
Would love to have seen Mike if cus didn’t die |

Tyson would have struggled to live with Ali or smoking Joe Frazier. Sonny Liston and big George Foremen were supposed to be the bully boys of their day. Yet Ali put them both away.
Don't get me wrong Tyson was good but the division didn't have many true heavyweights after Larry Holmes until Lewis came along. Not forgetting Evander Holyfield who started in lower weight divisions and moved up. Just my view.

Lewis beat a washed up tyson. In and out of jail, wasn't the same with out cus in his corner. Prime Iron Mike would have smashed Lewis. Smoking Joe Frazer or Ali would have beat Lewis along with Fury. I'd even go so far to say its a 50/50 with wilder as the power he has. |

Mike Tyson smashed more bums than Elton John but soon as he came up against someone with a bit of class he was found out, fury is too big and too strong for any of the heavyweight champs he wins hands down jmo |

"Fury would be gone in 60 seconds against prime Tyson. The current heavyweight crop are a joke. Ali would have beaten any 3 of them one after the other on the same night."
I remember going to the pics in Dublin to watch live Ali fights with my dad at all hours of the morning. |
