Who wouldn’t remember Mike Tyson? Mike Tyson is considered by many as the hardest hitting heavyweight who ever lived. He fought the heavyweight division with a fearsome reputation. His quick bobbing and weaving reflexes combined with fast heavy hands made him the youngest heavyweight champion.

Mike Tyson easily caught the attention of boxing aficionados by winning his first 19 bouts via knockout. He was able to defeat Trevor Berbick in just two rounds in 1986 to become the youngest heavyweight champion. The year later, he was able to amass both WBA and IBF heavyweight crown making him the first heavyweight to successively unify the IBF, WBC and WBC heavyweight titles. However, Mike Tyson was defeated by the underdog Buster Douglass in 1988.
