Only good thread you made your entire life Court.
As a physical specimen, he was the Lebron James of Boxing, having a mans body by the age of 15
As for this video, here's a short version of the fight he was training for...
EDIT: The video I posted didn't even show the fightBut I found this video which I'm dying off of right now.
I knew about this, seen interviews/etc. But now that I'm older, its much more hilarious than I remembered it...

I agree for the most part but I think 19-20 yr old Mike could potentially beat anybody

Why not? All GOAT talk (especially) in boxing is purely hypothetical. In his prime Tyson was destroying nikkas.
Obviously Ali and Sugar Ray Robinson have more accomplishments tho

Mike is my all time favorite and you are absolutely right.
Because he has such a small body of work. Any other person in the discussion for "GOAT" has a resume of such..proof. All we have of Tyson is him KOing a lot of inferior competition and some dope training videos.
Yes dude was a phenom
Yes dude was fukking scary
Yes dude could have KOd a lot of ATGs
His career is one big "What if" and one cannot be the GOAT without proving something.
I hope nobody was mistaken my critisism for hate because Mike is one of my favorite fighters too. I'm legit sad that we could never see him reach his full potential. It just wasnt in the cards for him i suppose. But we cant look at Mike and call him the GOAT, when you have dudes such as Ali,SRR mentioned as the greatest. One thing is not like the other there.

I agree. I'm just saying that no matter who you say is the GOAT it can be debated. Especially in boxing.
OH yeah definitely. I just dont feel Mike should be discussed with them. He absolutely had all the tools to be the GOAT...it just aint pan out for him sadly.

PRIME ali would whoop prime tyson its not even close
tyson would have to luckily catch him with one
but they would always have a rematch
Ali's prime was way too much for Tysons flashy prime
a real fight with interviews and shyt talking... it would be simple simon tyson's ass ... that boy would probably be so angry he would knock himself out. AND PRIME ali was just as fast as tyson ... even faster in the feet
