Tyson looked invincible during the eighties. He behaved himself,and more importantly gave boxing a tremendous shot in the arm.

He didn't quite behave himself in the 80's, most of his indiscretions were paid off or swept under the carpet

I mean he was one of the few boxers that was actually unbeatable.

Good Boxers like lennoxlewis, Muhammed Ali and George Foreman did not have the same air of dominance.

When he was on top, there was no doubt he was on top
foreman did along with liston

Gotta go with Chavez who was just dominating at 135lb in the 80's and his early days at 140lb.
