You gotta be kidding putting Naseem in the same breath as Tyson. He was very good, but not in Tyson's league. Tyson was a small heavy weight rocking guys that outweighed him by 40 lbs+

With two lumps growing on his head like horns, the just-knocked-out-and-revived Larry Holmes said that Shavers hit harder than Tyson.  I believe him.

What Tyson had was accuracy and explosiveness like no other heavyweight I've seen.

Tyson is no doubt one of the best power punchers ever, but the BEST is David Tua.



And yes, Tua would've beaten Tyson in his prime.  Tua handled Holyfield during their sparring sessions in prepartion for Tyson.

Don't make me laugh!

NO WAY would Tua have beaten Tyson in his prime. Tyson was on another whole different level, in terms of skill, fitness, aggressiveness, and ruthlessness. Tua packed a strong punch for sure, and he has a thick Samoan skull which makes him hard to knock out. But he is nowhere near the class of Tyson in his prime.

PS - I have seen both of them in action, and actually met both of them. Both are actually really nice guys.

Tua fought much better competiton and beat better competiton.

Hasim Rahman, Michael Moorer, Fres Oquendo, Chris Byrd, Ike Ibeabuchi, Oleg Maskaev, David Izon, John Ruiz.

They share a common opponent in Lewis and Tua did much better considering he fought with several broken ribs.

  If we're talking punching power and nothing more, then Fedor Emelianenko is probably the hardest puncher ever. Technically, his stand-up sucks, but his raw power is sick.

Tyson was good, but be dodged Lennox Lewis in his prime and never saw the best of what the communist east had to offer.

I'm not a noob, boob. Fedor throws looping haymakers because MMA fighters can get away with stupid sloppy shit like that because they aren't technically sound. Putting Fedor and tyson in the same breath is ludicrous

His unorthodox style draws from sambo. You can't seem to make the distinction that they are separate sports.

Sure it does. I don't care if it draws from your ass. If you think Fedor is as hard a hitter as Tyson you need to get your eyes checked.

Look, Fedor's striking derives from an established discipline with a successful history, and is technical in regard to that discipline.
He's mastered the sambo casting punch like no other and is a 4-time world champion - far from a sloppy bar brawler.

OK?

I feel sorry for Gerald, but he was a horrible cunt.

Nigel was unstoppable that night (if you ignore the fact that McClellan wrapped his own hands and Nigel getting pushed back into the ring by the commentators.) and definitely one of the hardest men ever to step into the ring.

I had a brain injury  and I was in comma for two weeks just like Gerald , once I got better I did everything possible to go back to boxing and  turn PRO (even going to Mexico and South America ) didn't listen to my family or doctors .
Looking back now  I'm so glad  it didn't work out.

Tyson at his prime was extremely impressive and capable. But: he also was relatively short and light for a heavy weight. Against today's much taller and heavier champs, he would have had a lot more difficulty fighting his way. Things have changed.

What unfortunately hasn't changed is the fact that in 2010 these heavyweight "champs" still fight very few fights per year. Sometimes once or twice every 12 months. Such a shame. K1 heavyweight champs have to fight THREE fights in one evening to win a Best-of-eight tournament. Heavyweights that fight so rarely are not worth the title of "Champ" imo. They seem to avoid fighting?

(I also think there are several tall and big K1 and MMA athletes that could mean trouble for Klitschko. Alas they will never meet each other in a boxing-rules fight).

Today's heavyweights are a joke. Tyson would have KO'd Klit within 3 rounds. Tyson fought several very tall heavyweights and rarely fought someone who was close to his shortness.

Kind of a naive question, but what is it about aging the makes someone of Tyson's caliber less lethal in his older years?

Is it mainly a degradation of speed, power, endurance or aggression/motivation? Or is it a combo of everything?

Tyson looked good against washed up fighters and nobodies.

Name Tyson's biggest win. 

Tyson fought in the weakest era of heavyweights ever (80's) while Tua was being groomed as a champion during the strongest era of heavyweights (90's).  Tyson was fed tomato cans until he fought Holyfield.

Anyone saying Tyson could beat Tua, read the reports outta Holyfield's training camp for Tyson!  Tua was brought in as a Tyson prototype and Holyfield was getting knocked around the ring.  Holyfield goes on to beat Tyson easily.

Tyson also loses to Ibeabuchi. He can't fight past 6 rounds.

Best Heavyweight Fight in Boxing History!
