Tyson was a caveman, but a fast, savage, hard hitting caveman. Possibly only Ali
and Frazier put combinations together as fast, and it'd be close. Prime to
prime, I think Tyson would take Jerry, possibly Ali, Frazier, only if he struck
early (past five, and Joe'd chop him up), but Foreman would lift him off the
canvas - another Kingston. Late Tyson, all of the guys would beat him fairly
easily, inside the distance.|

PM|Roadscholarette|Chicago||roadscholarette@hotmail.com||||10|BTW, has anyone
given any thought to Tyson being heavily onto steroids? His weight for his
height (and I don't think he's really 5'11"), and as chiseled as he is - giant
arms, neck, six pack stomach - are all sure signs of steroids. I haven't been
able to see closely enough to tell if he has stretch marks (harder to see on a
black man), but the most common and obvious place would be in the
underarm/pectoral region. If he were on them, this would enhance his speed and
strength immensely. Boxing being what it is, someone could be from another
planet and on LSD, and no one would know or care.|

Frazier, Ellis, Jerry, would have no chance agaisnt today's heavyweights? Two
of the three major heavyweight titles in this so called age of giant
heavyweights are held by Roy Jones Jr. 193 pounds when he won his title and
normally a light heavyweight, and Chris Byrd who weighs about 213 pounds. If
these two can win titles in today's age, then why not the fighters from the 60s
and 70s?In recent times only two larger heavyweights have shown to be
major talents, Lennox Lewis and Riddick Bowe. Otherwise the champions have been
closer to the size of the fighters from Jerry's and Joe F's era. Among them,
Tyson, 220 pounds in his prime, Evander Holyfield, 205 to 212 in his prime and
Larry Holmes, 212 to 215 in his prime.When some of the other super sized
heavyweights start winning major titles and holding on to them, then we can say
this is the age of the super big heavyweights. Only David Tua, who is hot one
minute and then cold the next and the Klitscko Brothers have shown any kind of
talent at all and the K Brothers still need to prove themselves as being
anything more than talented prospects. None of the other so called
giant fighters of today have proved they have any talent at all. Frazier, Jerry,
Patterson, and especially Foreman and Ali would do very well against these
lumbering, limited fighters. |

lost soul. don't understand that runners are faster, football players are bigger
and better. the boxers are lagging behind on talent(i'll give you that)
otherwise , no contestthe small guys lose. roy jones jr. is an exception to
the rule. he might be the greatest fight in history before he gets done. KENT,

you are right, athletes in other sports are bigger, stronger, and faster. But
boxing is a sport that requires a specialized skill and skill beats size most of
the time. My examples of champions from recent times shows that except for a
few occasions, the heavyweight champions have not been that much bigger than
