Take Fedor Emelianenko on, or even stand a chance against him in a fight in the street?

You say that, but as soon as someone states their opinion in a question you asked, you immediately attack them and say they are entirely wrong.
Fedor wins. You've got to remember all he has to do is get in close, Tyson was always grappling and if he was *that good* he'd KO oppponents with the first punch of a fight wouldn't he? anything more and that's infighting - something Fedor would dominate at.
Fedor only needs to slip once punch to get through and grappler a boxere to death. Can we honestly say with 100% certainty a boxer would manage to hit fedor as he came inside him - first time - everytime?
He grappled in a BOXING MATCH; not a street-fight. He destroyed Mitch Blood Green in a street-fight in seconds. Same man that took him the distance when he was younger. Of course he busted up his hand because there were no gloves.
Fedor does not have good hand-strikes and when he stands up he really isn't as good. But if he gets you on the Ground, the Man is Incredible. He is also strong and is a tough S.O.B.
So who wins? Who knows. Both have their chance but Fedor overall will come with more weapons. It favors Tyson at the start because they both are standing up and it usually starts off with a strikes. If Tyson goes to the ground, I expect him to chew and rip Fedor's balls so Fedor has to be fast. Fedor most likely knows real self-defense which includes moves to break arms and legs so let's keep that in mind.
Street-fights last seconds. Boxing matches you need to be prepared to go the distance. Big Difference in how you approach the two.
This is some funny stuff
Wait, you can't apply fast chokes, grappling, or Muay Thai techniques in a street fight but you can apply boxing?
Bullshit.
Have you not seen the guys that Fedor has finished off? Way bigger than 280.
Im not saying tyson would win but tyson was probably leagues faster then fedor and any of the guys he has fought. And without any gloves on it would not take many punches for tyson to drop anyone.
Sonny Liston was a tough street fighter. He was also big, strong, and mean. George Foreman would also give him trouble. And +1 on Tyson. Vitali was also a kickboxer i believe, and has the size and punch to give Fedor a challenge in any style of fighting.

You don't have the time or set up's. Hands are THE most efficient way of combat. How often do you see two testosterone ridden men in a street fight setting up rubber-guards and arm-bars? Fights start standing up, and more times than not, end standing up. You throw a boxer in the mix, the hands become much more lethal. A ****ing kick isn't going to do much, especially when you take into account they'd probably be wearing something like jeans to cushion the blow. A kick to the legs or side isn't going to stop someone, and a high-kick is less likely to work, especially with a fast paced environment adding pressure. A clinch is less likely to happen when you got to experts of controlling distance to. MMA fighters and boxers both have probably adapted to set everything up with a punch also, so you'd see even an MMA fighter would prefer throwing punches. If your an MMA fighter about to get in a street fight, your not thinking of improbable shit like, "Oh, I'm going to straight up give this guy a high kick to stagger him then give him a flying knee". No. MMA fighters use their hands to set up other stylistic techniques than others. Also, you can also do many other things in a street fight that would be considered illegal in an MMA fight. You have to take everything into account and think of probabilities. Just because an MMA fighter is more well-rounded, doesn't mean their first thought is going to be a RNC, or a knee bar. You have to set shit like that up, in which in a street fight, you have very little time to do so, and within those attempts, you can just as easily get KO'd for doing so. With such testosterone and pressure, you won't have easy control over the other guy on the ground, expect them to squirm and fight out of that spot. And you also have to take into account that MMA fighters are so much less likely to become masters of their arts. It's a jack of all trades, master of none. The way I see it, as far as Fedor and boxers, Fedor has a great chance just because his energy mixed in with his mindset during a fight is almost masterful, I'd only give Heavyweight boxers with great chins, speed, counter punching, or technical skills to make Fedor miss and pay for it. I'd give Fedor a better chance than most, but then again, who wouldn't?

Tua, Tyson, maybe a Klitschko or two. Thing is, is you can't apply a whole lot of MMA techniques in a street fight because it's faster paced. It's not like your in the ring trying to win rounds, your trying to go for the KO.
