    This documentary is specifically about Tyson and Holyfield. With video recordings from the time all slating Holyfield saying Tyson would win easily, even when he beat him saying it was a fluke etc. Is a really good watch, one of the ESPN 30 for 30 docs which are all really good for any sports fan

    You can say a lot about how much of a **** of human being Naseem Hamed is but can't deny that he was a great boxer - was the one that made me a boxing fan.

    Hamed had a bigger ego then everyone you mentioned combined and I watched all of his fights hoping that the dickhead would get his teeth knocked out only to find myself rooting for the prick.

    Roy Jones Jr and Bernard Hopkins are other arrogant greats who were annoyingly good enough to back it up.

    GGG should be counted among the greats - pity all the big names dodged him in his prime. Canelo as well? Sure he seemingly has the same butcher as Fury but is that a big enough mark against his name?

    Pity Andre Ward had all of his injury and promoter problems as he should be included in the above as well imo.

    Naseem - showboat
    Tyson - vicious
    Eubank - arrogant

    AJ -?? In one word.. Go!

    One word?

    Sanatised probably - he was the one that brought heavyweight boxing into the mainstream by being the clean cut good boy that they wanted on teatime TV.
