Both fighters were brilliant knockout artists who used to strike fair every time they stepped foot inside the squared circle. However, there has been constant debate as to who the best knockout artist was between the two. The verdict is bound to be flawed in some sense whenever one looks at intangibles of this sort. The boxers didn't fight identical opponents, had varying career trajectories and fought in different eras. With that said, let’s nonetheless compare them. And what better way than to look at their knockout percentages to find the answer.

Mike Tyson expresses his gratitude towards Dana White 'Iron Mike' has thanked UFC boss Dana White for refusing to work with the streaming platform Hulu. The company has received a lot of backlash recently for its upcoming series 'Mike' which will be based on Tyson's life and is set to be released later this month. The series was made without permission from, or any financial recompense to the man himself, Mike Tyson. As revealed in Tyson's social media post, Dana White was offered millions by Hulu to promote the series but he refused to do so in honor of his friendship with 'Iron Mike'. While expressing his gratitude towards Dana White's actions, Tyson took to Instagram stating: "Hulu tried to desperately pay my brother @danawhite millions without offering me a dollar to promote their slave master take over story about my life. He turned it down because he honors friendship and treating people with dignity. I'll never forget what he did for me."
