Tyson was my favorite but he wasn't really a boxer he was a brawler.. there is a difference.. Ali was the best he had talent that far surpassed Tyson and he never had to bite off an ear to prove it... Tyson was/is nuts and that's unfortunate.. Even Foreman was a better boxer than Tyson... bigsmile


He might not have had style, but he had power


DrX you have to have style when you're too old and stupid to do anything but run up and try to punch someone.. Why'd he loose to what's his face.. I never remember his name.. Why??? b/c STYLE was needed not brawn...


But I'm saying if both was in their prime



Fine but.. Great constitutes in most definitions "style, grace, ability, method, etc. Tyson had none of that.. NOW believe me I wish he did, he was truly my favorite boxer.. BUT the TRUTH is Ali was a better fighter....

You knew that you'd pay $50 and umten for the party, have a boat load of friends over for 1:45 seconds... The thing about style is it takes substance... Tyson had no substance just one helluva right hook... I do too but it doesn't make me a stylish boxer... huh

i guess if the Arguement is strictly "Boxing" and not who would WIN... Ali won more titles, more big fights and had the style to be a true work of art.

for pure boxing style.... Sugar Ray Lenord

ali only won 6 more fights then tyson so not won more fight really tyson was the youngest hwc ever not his fault if fighters could not handle his right hook


tyson could box if he had 2 look at his and douglases 2end bout one of the best fights i ever saw
