People act like Tyson was just a raw puncher like Wilder or some shyt....

Prime Tyson probably has the GOAT bob and weave, and had the quickest hands at heavyweight ever. Ali isn't going the distance with a prime Tyson....and thats the only way he's winning it.

I just dont see it :unimpressed:

tyson wasnt mentally on Ali's level

the only way he could win, which he probably wouldnt was by a lucky punch
but the match would be over before it even started because Ali would mentally destroy him

Ehh...Ali is better but of course styles make fights, who's the closest thing to a prime Mike Tyson Ali fought?

He ain't Liston and he ain't exactly Frazier either, but you have similar height and power, with Mike being faster, better on defense and could rock you with both hands.

:francis:

In any of these scenarios, Mike is toast unless he drops him by round 3. But considering the type of fighters Ali had trouble with, Mike's style would make it so that he had a good chance to do just that.

Ali. Tyson struggled with tall fighters, and Mike has never fought anyone on Ali’s level. On the flip side, Ali has taken punches from hard punchers like Frazier, Foreman and Shavers and never got knocked out.

Most of the dudes he faced were taller tho
