      - - The the agreed upon contracts were being drafted as the most lucrative, magnetic fight in History when the Chinese Massacre occurred. It's settled history.

      Look, we know it's tough not having U minder tending U.

      Tyson was never the same after that high point in his career as King finally took over his management, but Big George motored on into Valhalla as a Legend among Legends.

        There were no agreed upon contracts. You're making stuff up again.

          It's hard to say.

          I think both are overrated mainly on the basis of what could have been rather than what was.
          Bowe is more underrated and hated then overrated.

            Who has Tyson beaten better then Bowe in their prime ? Exactly.

            Tyson didn't fight and beat any prime fighters that were all time greats.

              But then again who did Dempsey beat who was great and in his prime? Who did Marciano beat?

                  Stop acting like the old drunken fool you are. Nothing was ever agreed upon. Proposed, yes. That's it though.

                    I dont romantize golden age fighters or fighters that had their prime years pre 1950s. I just don't. I can only judge them base on their time period but I can't judge them all time because those times, rules and etc were all different. One notable case is Dempsey's refusal to fight Harry Wills, a top-ranked Black boxer, even though Wills was the number one contender and Dempsey had agreed to fight him. I was never a big fan ( not hater ) of Marciano. You are kinda proving my point. Both of these guys have dirt on their resumes if you wanted to pick them apart but the past is the past.

                    Lets stay on Tyson since he's still alive lol.

                      - - Dempsey didn't refuse to fight Wills, they agreed to mega fights in 1920/21 but both fights were cancelled by Boston and NY politicos, but Johnson refused to rematch Langford or Jeanette for the title while in France, nor would he fight Wills.

                      Never defended against a single Black Fighter in spite of that being a golden age for black heavies.
