    there's being big and then there's knowing how to use your size.

    if he was trained by emmanuel steward and learned out to clinch boxers and lean on them against the ropes to sap them. he could very well be great.

      Hes a lot better than Frank Bruno. Dillian Whyte is better than Frank Bruno as well.

        He might lose, but he aint getting embarrassed like that.

        And AJ aint going life & death with Lennox like Bruno did.


        Lennox getting has ass outta there in a few rounds

        Ruiz does Bruno in similar fashion

        That version of Lennox would have a good chance of losing to Anthony Joshua

          Prime Mike lost in the 90s, in the 80s he won his fights but the competition was not as strong.

            That version of Lennox? That was a good Lennox Lewis, while Bruno continues to be underrated. That was regular Bruno - good boxer, good jab, nasty on the inside when he needed to be. It was just that he could be removed from his senses.

            Ruiz couldn't have lived with Bruno.

              No that's not how it works. Being taller automatically dosen't win you fights lmao. Fury got dropped by cunninghman a journeyman bum in his prime. He's got a glass jaw. His jaw won't take prime tyson's punches. And Fury is not a good inside fighter like holyfield.

                  I think if Tyson came in hot against Joshua, he can get him out of there in a single round.

                  Joshua legitimately has a button on his chin that is damn near Amir Khan. A special kind of boxer like Mike would get there like no other and put him out in the first round.

                  Even if not completely stiff, the ref would stop it with Joshua going all over the place and Tyson teeing off on him.

                    Heck, Mike at 57 years old would still give most of the current heavyweight division problems. Forget prime.
