Mike Tyson beat guys taller than him. He was probably shorter than everyone or almost everyone he fought. Tony Tucker was a contender too back then even after he lost to Tyson by decision. A lot of depth in the division in those days. Fury would have a height advantage on all of them, but would that be enough to overcome their skills? Fury would probably have lost to Klitschko in the rematch and Joshua if he fought him.
As far as Fury losing to Klitschko in the rematch??? ... I doubt it -- and sometimes you get one bite at the apple... Joshua will probably get his bite sometime in the future -- that is if Fury ever rehabs from all his mental, emotional, and addiction health issues...
Mike was on the decline vs buster
Past it vs Holyfield
Completely shot vs lewis
It's a terrible base for an argument.
Mike Tyson knocks out tyson fury badly
still very good versus buster. for me
that night was the rare event when
a fighter got bigger than he was. the
buster douglas of that night gives
many ATGs a very hard night and
not all of them would win.
he had tremendous talent, but lacked
work ethic, which funny enough, mike
always had- at least enough to show
up in shape.
