I think Tyson would have beaten any Larry H.

Holmes, he probably had one of the best heavyweight jabs of all time, it would stifle Tyson's aggresion.

No probably about it......Best jab in HW history hands down. Prime Holmes would have demoralized Tyson.

I love Tyson highly under-rated but Holmes in his peak could of hung with Ali, Foreman, Frazier and Norton.

Id go Holmes UD.

42yo Holmes vs 28yo unbeaten Ray Mercer.

One of the most under-rated heavyweight fights ever!

I got Larry Holmes. Holmes would keep the jab in Tyson's face all night then the punches and combos Holmes would hit Tyson with off the jab. Holmes all day.

One thing to keep in mind was that from what Ive heard, Cus/Rooney had always specifically trained Tyson to deal with Holmes, via throwing the right hand over the jab.

but I would choose Holmes
