Guys, do you feel tyson should be on the list of ATG's or just an entertainer of boxing?.
well, after prison he became champion again, and that adds up to your legacy as well, he was almost close of getting the IBF but was stripped off the WBC and lost the WBA to holyfield.I think he's an all-time great, but primarily based on what he did in the 80s (when he was focused and unbeatable), after that it was a long downhill spiral which added nothing to his legacy.
:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:Top class fighter in his day. He has ZERO class as a person, he disgraced boxing. Convicted rapist, bit an opponents ear off, need I say more?
Yeah but he beat Frank Bruno, who was quite possibly the most limited heavyweight champ of all time, won the WBA against Bruce Seldon (not exactly a stellar name or boxer) and then lost to Holyfield. He may have won the belts but they didn't mean anything, not compared to what he did in the 80s. Belts don't really mean all that much anyway, it's what you do in the ring and he never scaled the same heights again.well, after prison he became champion again, and that adds up to your legacy as well, he was almost close of getting the IBF but was stripped off the WBC and lost the WBA to holyfield.
