I was a HUGE Tyson fan back in the day. I grew up in Glens Falls NY. We were lucky enough to see him fight 3 pro fights at the Civic Center in that town before he hit it big. I still have a photo I took of him. He was freaken AWESOME.

That being said those fighters were not history making good. I'll give you Holmes but he was past his time when they fought. Way past his time. I am not taking anything away from Tyson.He fought who was there. He got beat by Douglas in his prime and it was pretty much downhill from there. I get he canned his trainer before the Douglas fight but thats his problem.

I'll take Ali anyday over Tyson.
