There you are again.

I have to assume that you never followed boxing during Tyson's emergence. At the time Pinklon Thomas was an excellent boxer, as was Tony Tubbs, Tony Tucker, Tyrell Biggs, trevor Berbick & Mike Spinks. 6 boxers who in today's game would probably be world champions.

Lewis & Holyfield were the changing of the guard from the era of Tyson. McBride & Williams beat a has-been.

Let me put it this way. Who would your money be on in an mma match between Bas Rutten & Minotauro today?

I would be shocked if you (hand on heart) thought Rutten would win. Was Rutten a poor champion? No.
