He was the only real quality heavyweight of the Eighties, IMO.
Lewis v Tyson in their prime would have gone to Tyson. Tyson just had that bit more.
From the Seventies, i'd take all of Ali, Frazier and Foreman against Tyson. Maybe even Ken Norton. That was the real quality era.
Sixties, Ali and Liston pre-Mafia.
And before that, Joe Louis and Marciano too.
Not bad though is it, top 10 heavyweight of all time, Tyson even when you're hard on him.
