![]() Where does Mike Tyson rank among the all-time greats? There’s no question that for a brief time in the late 1980s Tyson was truly awesome -- as feared and dominating as any fighter who ever lived. But true greatness also requires longevity and wins over quality opponents and in these two categories Tyson is sorely lacking. Tyson’s prime really only lasted from his 1985 debut through the end 1989 -- just prior to being KO’d by Buster Douglas. During this time Tyson was an amazing 37-0 and became the youngest heavyweight champ in history. But his greatest victories were KOs against a flabby, over the hill ex-champ in Larry Holmes and a scared, blown-up light heavyweight in Michael Spinks. Tyson’s other "big wins" were over Trevor Berbick, Bonecrusher Smith, Pinklon Thomas, Tony Tucker, Tony Tubbs and Frank Bruno. Hardly the stuff of legends. Using the Douglas loss as the turning point, Tyson is an extremely ordinary 12-4 with 2 no contests over the second part of his career. Against the great fighters of his era - Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis and Buster Douglas - Tyson was 0-4 (OK, I’m using the term ‘great’ very loosely here in order to make a point) and he never even faced Riddick Bowe, George Foreman, Ray Mercer or Michael Moorer. Given the stunningly short duration of Tyson’s meteoric rise and fall, along with his lack of truly significant wins, it’s impossible to rank Tyson among the top ten heavyweights of all-time. In one of the greatest cases of squandered talent in the history of sports, Tyson’s spot in the pantheon of greats belongs somewhere between numbers 11 and 20 -- right next to his twin from an earlier era, Charles "Sonny" Liston. Only time will tell if Tyson’s life continues to parallel the tragic arc or Liston’s or if he can somehow redeem himself and avoid a similarly early and mysterious demise |

I came in here expecting a 500-40 vote in favor of Tyson. Am absolutely shocked that anybody would rationally think that a movie martial artist would have a snowball's chance in hell with one of the greatest boxers in heavyweight history. It would end in nanoseconds, and Lee would most likely be put on life support.

I remember when this was like 92/8% Lee, and a moderate portion of the discussion consisted of how I am a dumb n00b.

Haha, you remember that? I thought about that for a few days and hoped it would blow over and thought it did. I'll have to go back to that one because I was walking around with a little notepad taking notes on what to write about that one... It'll be a tl;dr type of deal.

I promise. Lee was an actor because he got paid. Tyson would be an actor, but he's too stupid. So instead they have 'Mike Tyson's Mysteries' on CN. Funny shit. But Tyson would still get his asss kicked.
