And who would have beaten him in 1983 or 1984? Assuming he didn't make the jump all the way to Middle that soon...who could get the job done? He...
It was because of his eye. After the Bruce Finch fight.
What if Ray Leonard didn't retire in the early 80's? How would have his career unfolded. Would he have moved up to 154 for rematches with Hearns...
If Tyson did not end up in jail, how do you think his career would unfold? Does he defeat Holyfield and go on to rule the division for a few more...
It's not the truth...it's a convenient excuse some Tyson fans like to use to explain away the loss to Douglas.
That is true. It's not like Jones was a long time champion when they fought. Sometimes folks try to make it sound like Jones was an established...
Sigh. Another topic down the drain.:doh: How 'bout we get back to talking about boxing??
You DID mention Tyson's prime being until the Ruddock fights...which I do agree with. But what I was mostly agreeing with in Whiskey's post was...
Mayweather Jr. - until he loses. :lol:
EGG-Zactly!!! Much too often, a fighter's "prime" is used as an excuse for a loss by fans of that fighter. Tyson was in his prime all the way to...
Does Holmes even have haters?:lol: I never got the feeling folks cared about him one way or the other. The most I ever see folks talk about him...
Sanchez definately gets the "died young" extra credit from a lot of folks.
Hagler was nowhere as slow or as one-dimensional as some folks want to make him out to be and Joppy was nothing special. Hagler would bust up and...

Ummm...Hagler fought Seales twice in the second year of his career and still went 1-0-1 against him then. When Hagler was in his prime (shortly...
I wouldn't consider Taylor to be well on his way to 'greatness.' After losing to Pavlik...Taylor has a lot of work to do.
Whops! Sorry for the misunderstanding. I thought you were one of those folks that tries to talk up Holmes as an significant win for Tyson (and...
Ummm...I didn't forget...
Zab Judah was dominating Tzyzu before getting himself KOed.
Roy Jones always had a china chin & it was finally exposed when his reflexes started to slow.
In the heavyweight division...bigger always means better.
Orion couldn't kill two pitbulls at the same time with his bare hands.
David Tua isn't fat.
Ray Leonard was only a runner and a "shoe-shiner."
Here's another... - Jaws1216 can be unbiased.
Only in your dreams...
Actually...I think it was 100% of the retards. :lol: And now, of course, 99.5% of them claim they "knew" Tyson was going to lose but picked...
'cause he actually had some heart??? Shame on Tyson's management taking a fight with a stiff who actually came to fight. :lol:
Hell...DANNY WILLIAMS doesn't get any credit for that win from Tyson fans...I don't see why Holmes would either.:lol:
