Problem was Tyson came along when there were no greats around, Spinks and Holmes were long washed up. By the time Evander Holyfield got to him, Tyson wasn't the same.
"Smarter fighters" like Bonecrusher and Tony Tucker were able to make Tyson look not as ferocious though, even in his prime.
Would have loved to have seen how Evander's tactics would have worked against Tyson in his prime. Can watch Tyson v Holyfield 1 on endless loop for days - poetry in motion.
