Hit Man Hearns and Marvelous Marvin Hagler was a heck of a fight. Loved watching Ali vs. Frasier. Pound for pound maybe Rocky Marciano.

Tough to call a single fight for me but for greatest fighter of all time I would vote Tyson. Too bad the ladies and other activity derailed him....he was a beast early on.

Robert "No Mas" Duran vs Sugar "Ray" Leonard or The Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs The "Cobra" Curry from Ft Worth, alson enjoyed any fights with Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini too, tough Italiano. Finally, Oscar "Golden Boy" De LA Hoya vs Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker..

I enjoyed fighting Golden Gloves in the high school offseason and some other tournaments. My old man thought Ali would have beat Tyson in his prime. I don’t!
If we’re talking bar fights in west Texas, I’ll vote for my dad every time. I saw some true talent and a master at dirty fighting when that giant got mad.

Tyson had a crazy run in his prime. He may top tier fighters look like punks. And to the point above, he took top ranked fighters and you could see the fear in their eyes on TV.

I think of Ali as a traditional boxer and Tyson as a fighter.

I don't really think anybody beats Tyson fury. And I mean anybody throughout history. He's just too damn big and too damn slick. After him probably Ali

my grandad was the ultimate boxing fan and we watched Friday Night Fights religiously!ha Great memories!! NOBODY beats Mike Tyson though...lots of great fighters, but none like Tyson! He is in his own league if we're talking about fighters in their prime.

Boxers...I'd go Tyson for just pure domination.
MMA is a little tougher for me...Jon Jones, Anderson Silva, or GSP.
