Tyson has really good defense and head movement. He'll work his way on the inside and break him apart. Lewis is good...I won't take anything away from him. I just feel Tyson would BREAK him in the inside.

Im biased a Tyson fan

Prime Tyson would fcuk him up!!

I've always wondered this.... Hard to say because Tyson was great but he was easily frustrated and Lewis had that style that bothered Tyson.. Tyson definitely hadda good chance...

I cant believe I picked Tyson to win back in 2002.

Lennox beats mike 9 out of 10 times!

I think a young Tyson ('86-'88) beats any form of Lennox Lewis.

He was just too much.

I agree, it was just a bad style matchup for Tyson, Lewis was GREAT against shorter guys, his jab combined with his great uppercut didn't let them get close. I have a feeling this will become a 20 page thread so I'm not gonna bother arguing with anyone.

This is an extremely tough fight to call. Prime Tyson was a beast and prime Lewis was an amazing fighter. It's a 50/50 fight.
