BOXING-Who is the best in your opinion?

I believe the all-time best was Muhammad Ali and then Mike Tyson bringing up a close second. Even at his age if you watch him work out and understand how much he works out he’s still an animal.

Being born and raised in Louisville Kentucky, it's real easy for me to say Muhammad Ali. Back when he fought Foreman, I was pretty sure Foreman was going to kick his ass. Best fighter strategy in the history of boxing, afaic. Imo, Ali is the best boxer of all time.

Tyson was quite simply, the best, most pure _fighter_ I've ever seen. We'll never see anyone like him again.

I disagree about Ali, Tyson would have went through him. Ali was outstanding boxer but Tyson would have knocked him out within 6 rounds or less

Back in the day, that's exactly what everybody thought about George Foreman. Look what George did to Joe Frazier, who beat Ali once and damn near killed him the second time.

Whether the rope a dope or similar strategy would have worked with Tyson, I'm not sure. But after he lost to Buster Douglas, Tyson was never the same fighter.

Can't wait till Tyson pugilistically eviscerates Jake Paul. (y)

George was the man but can't compare to Tyson, period 💯 Tyson was that first Hybrid that is the total package.
Best Heavy Weight of all time. He was just a little crazy but can't deny him

Jake Paul about to get knocked out by Tyson, even though he's 58 or something. Telling you guys, this young Kat can't about to end his career from the Tyson.

Louis was invited to play in the 1952 Tucson Open. Louis shot a 69 in the opening round and a 72 in the 2nd round. His 2-round total of 141 enabled him to make the cut. Joe Louis is the only champion athlete from another sport ever to make the cut in a PGA event
