rever and jimmy by some of ur posts. i can tell u dont know much about boxing.

I pretty sure a prime tyson would wupp all three of em. and he did to ruddock twice. ruddock was a decent contener but just another contender who had nothing more against tyson than a punchers chance. Holyfeild would have been knocked out by mike tyson in 1988.

reverandjimmy just shut up man. your making yourself look stupid. seriousely if ur gonna give ur opinion u better have evidence with GOOD FACTS to support ur arguement.

Holyfield did not have a heart problem anymore. Wheter it was true or not, it was made up in 1994 after he lossed to moorer. anyways, holyfield had a lot more left than tyson and tyson showed how much he had lost in 8 years, the last time the world saw the real tyson was his peak night against spinks. MIke tyson lost some of his power and the right that landed on holyfield in the opening seconds would have Knocked out holyfield if it were thrown by a prime tyson. Evander gets all the credit in the world bouncing back beating tyson. was it tyson at his best???? no way the fight should have happened 6 years earlier. Tyson showed in that fight he was aging even though he was only 29 i think.

I think a lot other people would agree with me the prime tyson vs prime hoylfield. Tyson would Knock out holyfield. HOlyfield had a lot of heart and good chin butn ot enough to handle mike.

and if not knockout holyfield than mike would outpoint him because he showed he could beat guys over the distance

Can't see that Tyson would beat Holyfield. Tyson was a top fighter but he couldn't beat opponents who weren't scared of him and Holyfield took the fight to him and beat him on heart and guts. Tyson was a very frightening prospect but once a few rounds went against him he just fell apart. This didn't matter when he was fighting contenders and alphabet title holders but once he fought people at a higher level it really kicked in. The greatest of fighters have difficulties in fights and solve the problems, Tyson never did this.
