    If Mike Tyson was fleetfooted like Ali...

    Would he have been as great as Ali?? Ali of course was fleet footed and moved around the ring with the quickness, but if Tyson was fleetfooted could he been a more fleetfooted champion?? Explain.

    Also, who would win between a Tyson and a gorilla? What about a kangaroo??









    LOL. Goodnight.

        If it was a Prime Tyson, and his career developed like any normal boxers would. That is, half his training staff dying every so often, and his divorce problems and constant issues outisde the ring.

        Tyson would probably been a lot bigger than he is now. Alot more bigger had he not gone to Prison. He would probably waxed Holyfield and Bowe at around 92-94.

        If you look at a Prime Tyson, he was not Flat Footed. HE was constantly moving around, in and out, in and out. It was only really after prison he visible deterirated. He was physically stronger, but it was clear his boxing skills had diminished ALOT.

        At around the Golota fight, he was a completley different boxer.

        A Prime Tyson did not move like Ali, but he moved in a way that was good for his height and technique. So being "Fleet Footed" as you say (is that a word) would be pointless. Especially considering he relied on speed and combo's. Not his long jab and quick counters like Ali

          Mike was already quick on his feet for his weight, and was able to set himself up to deliver hard blows at the right times.

          He just didn't bounce around the ring like Ali, snapping a jab at a distance.

          His main goal was to close the distance as quickly as possible while avoiding getting hit much to deliver the knockout blows.

                    Gorillas are badass. One time me and my mates were at Twycross zoo on a biology trip and we were flirting with this one gorillas wife. And this silverback slowly walks up to us and then BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!! it jumps up against the transparent wall of its enclosure. We were like ****!!! we gotta do that again.

                    But then we got caught by the zoo keeper so we went to feed the monkeys some sweets.
