I'd class Abdullaev inside Cotto's biggest wins as well, for the same reason.

Tyson and Biggs never fought as amateurs.

Just looked it up and you appear to be correct. He does hold a win over Lennox Lewis though in the Ams, maybe that's where I got my wires crossed.

But damn, I was sure about that too.

Yeah, Tyson fought the likes of Craig Payne, Henry Milligan, and Henry Tillman (x2) in the amateurs, but never Biggs. Biggs was a super-heavy in those ranks, while Tyson stuck to the heavyweight class for the most part (I believe it was after the loss to Payne in the '83 National Golden Gloves when he went down a weight class to 201).
