Tyson was the perfect combination of speed, power and ferociousness. Foreman had power but, he was slow as shyt. Frazier was fast but, Tyson was faster and hit harder.

Tyson's problem was tiring out and getting sloppy as the rounds went on. In the first four rounds, a Prime Tyson would be trying to take Ali's head off. Ali would make Tyson miss alot. Ali would frustrate Tyson too, which could take him out of the fight mentally. If Ali could take the fight until the later rounds, he could win, and I want to give Ali the benefit of the doubt here but, he never fought anyone like Tyson. I feel like Tyson would land two or three punches that would fukk Ali up.


Mike Tyson in his PRIME lost to a no name James buster Douglas

Look at how disrupted Tyson was when he fought someone that took the fight to him, buster was taller and had reach on Tyson. Tyson had no answer for him.

Now this is holyfield, also someone that knocked out Tyson fighting Douglass months later after victory over Tyson, look how easily holyfield takes apart Douglass


So mean to tell me, Ali at 6'3 against tyson's 5"11, and Ali's reach advantage could easily jabb Tyson to death anytime He came in. Which would cause Tyson to take chances and lead to his knockout



Tyson would have no chance

Ali beat younger Ernie Shavers, Joe Louis and George Foreman.....I think a prime Ali could beat Iron Mike.

lmao ali ain't that damn old, he ain't never fight no damn joe louis lmao

22 year old would beat tyson

but the ali that fought fraiser would lose to 20 year old tyson, because they have similar build and style which gave ali problems

same reason why cus said joe louis would beat ali, tyson would cause same problems style make fights

I don't think Ali could take the 12 minutes of head and body shots from Mike. Foreman's punches we're slow, and you see them coming from a Mile away. Mike is just as powerful and much quicker hands, and dangerous combinations.
Mike couldn’t handle Holyfield or Lewis but you think he can handle Ali?

Ali was the better boxer, and was mentally tougher than Tyson. Mike has got the advantage in power, but Ali would have him mentally and physically beaten by round 7 in a 12 round fight.

do ya'll even know who prime muhammad ali was? tyson would not be hitting him like foreman did. ali would get in tyson's head and make him make mistakes, then it would be over. tyson was a mental midget and ali was one of the greatest boxing strategists ever to live.

You got me with the slipup.....I think Ali lost to FRAZIER in the first fight due to ring rust . How many tuneup fights did he have before Frazier?
Wasn't Cus training Paterson when Ali beat him?

Joe Frazier beat Ali.

Certain fighters match up better with others. Foreman beat the brakes off Frazier, but Ali dropped Foreman. Ali lost to both Holified and especially Lewis when he was past his prime. Also, we he fought Holified and Lewis, he lost the head movement he had in his prime. He was all agression, no tact.

Ali will get himself killed trying that rope-a-dope shyt with Tyson.

I agree with on that.

However, you gotta consider Ali's strategy vs Prime Mike's Speed, power, aggression, skill and defense.
