Dunno if this is a re post or not....but its worth it
Boxing needs another dominant figure like this again, made it worth watching
George Foreman would fuck him up

Boxing world definitely needs a new Mike to come. I miss The Iron Mike but he had his time and that's how it goes, like it or not.
In my humble opinion Mike is the best boxer. Ever. Why? He had the skillz, the attitude, the speed, shit he had it all. His head just didn't follow the same path he did and that's why his career ended. He could have achieved something more...
I don't want to start a debate who would win if they would fight but I have to agree with you about the intelligence aspect. But he didn't need to because he was so freakin' fast and strong. Take a hit and your gone, that was pretty much it. And you couldn't hit him 'cause he was so fast too. That's how I see it.I can see what your saying but although he had the speed and strength i dont think his fighting intelligence matched M. Ali or Ray Robinson.
It seems to be a stupid sport if you don't understand it, so I agree with you in this one too. Mike's style was completely different than Ali's or Ray's and that's one reason why he is/was one of the most interesting characters in boxing.Althought alot of people think that boxing a stupid sport i think that intelligence is the most important part of fighting and i dont see Tyson matching M.Ali or Ray Robinson and a few others due to this. But without a doubt he was one of the best.
Trust me Tyson would have floored Ali more than once. Look at the first fight between Ali and Joe Frazier who had a very similar style to Mike. He dropped Ali and landed a bunch of great shots all threw out the fight and won. Tyson was much faster than Joe and had alot more power and threw greater combinations aswell. Tyson in his prime with Cus in his corner would get the nod......![]()
