    Nope. Flash in the pan who benefited from a lack of great heavyweights in his day. If you ever had any doubts about this, watch Tyson/Douglas and see Buster Douglas make Tyson his girlfriend for 10 straight rounds.

    If Tony Tucker hadn't broken his hand in the 4th round of his fight with Tyson, Mike would never have become undisputed champion. Tucker was taking him to school up to that point.

        Its been a while since Ive seen that fight, I'm going to have to watch it again.

        I also don't class him as a ATG either, he falls way short in terms of consistency and reaction to adversity. His accomplishments are that he unified the belts, but you have to do more than that to be a ATG in my opinion.

            I dont think thats enough to be classed as an ATG, he falls way short in the other departments like consistency and reaction to adversity. He bit a guys ear off because he was losing a fight and then his career basically become a side show after that. He was also past prime after the Spinks fight as well.

                  bunch of idiots are posting in the history section of late...

                  to claim Mike Tyson is not an ATG is laughable and shows just how much these morons know about the sport of boxing... Tyson was the youngest heavyweight champion in history he cleaned the division and unified the title beating every fighter in the division who was thought of as being a threat to him or who was at the top of their game.. Tysons PPV numbers are the greatest ever for a heavyweight, Mike made more money than any fighter in boxing history and is a 2x champion.... the clowns on here who claim he is not an ATG are the same ones who claim Marco Antonio Barrera is an ATG
