Although I agree; Tyson would be closest . . . Mike idolized Dempsey and attempted to mimic much of his style.

Right down to the sweaters. I tried to find a better picture.

Frazier was somewhat like Dempsey; though Dempsey was a much faster starter.

Among heavyweights, Frazier is the closest. Bob and weave with a great left hook.
