My Top Ten Greatest Heavyweight Champs Of All Time!

[supaduck]

I'm not a Tyson nuthugger by any means, but to say he wasn't a great fighter is to just bull****. If his personal life hadn't been ****ed, he would have been much greater, and apparently he hadn't trained for the Douglas fight enough either.

Also, he was going into the Douglas fight at odds of 42/1, and it obviously got to his head. He said he stopped loving the sport after 1990, so obviously would have not trained as hard.

His prime was when he put on his best performance. His Spinks one was obviously considered to be it.

Sorry kid but in a sport where fighters are measured on accomplishments, Tyson had zilch. Knocking out a LHW in Spinks, and an ancient, money-hungry Larry Holmes just doesn't do it for me.

Hi Gavilan1, remember that one year after Tyson, Spinks knocked Cooney, and another year before it he beat Holmes so Spinks did well on heavyweight until Tyson destroyed him in half a round.

Don't call me kid Gavilan1, you jackass.

well technically if you think about it, Tyson was in prison where he had to make sure he didn't get into any fights with ppl or he'd definitly get in more trouble, and you know ppl were looking for fights with him, also he probably couldn't train as adequatly, Ali technically could have kept training and even probably gone to a gym and sparred i mean you don't need a license to do that but whatever
