>>19838981Tyson was a good boxer in a shitty age, and because he dominated shitty boxers he gets talked up like a god.
The Fact is that Tyson was fucking terrified of old fat George Foreman, and used to throw hissy fits and knock over furniture when people would try to pressure him into fighting him.
The Fact is that the Never-Was Buster Douglas, recovering from a serious illness, made an absolute buffoon out of Tyson for a long, embarrassing fight in which Tyson failed to connect with one tenth the punches. He lost to a weaker man, a less talented man, who employed good strategy to defeat someone way out of his metaphorical weight class.
Tyson would have been demolished by Ali, who was just Buster but better in every single way.
Tyson would have been smothered and crushed by Foreman, just as he did to Frazier but way, way worse.
Tyson would have been out fought and out drilled by Frazier, who took fifteen rounds of bombs from Ali better than Tyson took eight rounds of Buster.
Tyson was good at a bad time, the previous generation was great at a good time.
