@@amajeet Well I dont think Tyson is top 10 all time or anything. But, with regards to how he did against Botha, I think it is worth pointing out that he was finished by then. Tyson was a teenage prodigy who very likely would have been finished by 25 -27 even without going to jail because he peaked EARLY. A lot of that had to do with the fact that Tyson relied a lot on speed, quickness, and reflexes for his style to be effective. He was never built for the long haul. In his latter years, he showed some flashes here and there. But he had a young man’s style and thus he fizzled out which is why his prime was so short.

I think because Lennox fought like it was a game of chess. So tactically he would nullify their strengths and break them down with his arsenal of shots, the jab being one of the best shot and usually knock them out with the right. So he didn't get the credit because he wasn't explosive like say Mike Tyson I make him top 3 and the best of his era and that includes Tyson.

Briggs was a major contender at the time and a draw with him was nothing to be ashamed of. Lewis was fighting often during this time and cleaning out the division.

Don't put Mike Tyson down, you chumps. He was better than any Lewis in his prime. Your systems ruined his life, and he still came back and knocked many good boxers out. Stole 3 of his prime years.

Would have been faster if he hadn’t been fat. He looked leaner than he was against Tyson, but still a bit pudgy. He probably would have lost anyway, since Lewis was too good.

Tyson took longer to beat Botha. But he ko'd him with 1 punch. Lewis had to do it with accumulated damage over 2 rounds. Couldn't do it with a single punch. Botha also got up easier from Lewis's knock down. He couldn't get up at all from Tysons knock out. The announcers on here acting like Tysons ko was nothing compared to Lewis's. But it's the other way around.

Over a. Of time both of sophomore of Mike Tyson punches so by time Mike Tyson's live at the knockout punch it was hard for him to get up, You can clearly see at the beginning Botha was hurt from Lennox's punches which were so few and then the knockout punch came. So it is questionable, Tyson may hit a little harder than Lennox. Lewis

Botha didn't see Tyson's punch coming. In boxing, it's almost always the punch you don't see that knocks you out cold. Botha saw Lennox's punch coming.

Lennox Lewis always said he'll fight any1 after almost every fight wen he was ask wats n who nxt. Oh history check , most of the person Mike Tyson fought wen he was in his prime, Lennox lewis has beating Quicker, so how yuh think a prime Mike Tyson would n could av beaten Lennox lewis wen he has destroyed Mike's opponents Quicker than he did. Keep ur personally vendetta to urself n give respect where it's due.
