I recall people saying that Jeff Lacy was a 168lb version of Mike Tyson. David Tua was often called "The next Tyson" because of his power and similar stature to Tyson. Tavoris Cloud had been compared to Tyson at one time or another, so has Nonito Donaire. There have been a few but none have really panned out.
None, there will never be a boxer as good as Mike Tyson in history again. That i am sure of. Boxing became rubbish after the 1990's. Mike Tyson is a god.
many think tyson fury is the white mike tyson as he has power and his farther named him tyson based on mike tyson cos his farther was a boxing fan
I would definitely make heavyweight prospect Amir "Hardcore" Mansour a candidate for the next Tyson ,he's 18-0 ,compact and packs a mean punch:http://boxrec.com/media/index.php?title=...
Here's some of his highlights:
Any time a fighter has a high KO rating. Jeff Lacy, Deontey Wilder, GGG, Tommy Morrison, Lucas M. But there will only ever be one iron mike. There will be boxers similar, but they won't be in the same league.
n terms of physical stature, punching power and persona inside and outside the ring, there are none. David Tua and Manny Pacquiao I think were the closest minus of course the latter, especially outside the ring. Despite their fierceness inside the arena, both Tua and Pacquiao are likable, lovable chaps.
None its just a saying when a fighter has the ability to end any fight early with just one shot,
Its something the suite would say in the pre fight build up,
How many boxer have been call the next Tyson, little Tyson, the white Tyson, or some other variation of "the next Tyson"
