Cus had died and he fired Rooney. He showed up in Tokyo overweight with his entourage in his corner. He then went to prison after that. Before that fight he was the greatest heavyweight of all time


I agree with this and was going to post something similar. With cus and Rooney coaching Tyson had more discipline. He threw more combinations and his head movement was awesome. After he fired Rooney, he surrounded himself with yes men. He quit moving and went for the knockout punch.

But a prime Tyson with cus coaching him would be tough to beat. If prime Ali weathered the first couple of rounds, Ali wins.

BS. Foreman destroys him. Not beats him, destroys him. Holyfield probably still beats him because he had him figured out. He knew how to smother him and use jabs. Prime Holmes? Gives Mike all kinds of fits. Cassius Clay? Please. He has a field day with him.

Now Frazier? That would be a real fight, a tossup because they are so similar.

Marciano had a style that would work against Tyson as well. He wasn't built on speed so he didn't have to be fast.
