If Mike Tyson had Tyson Fury as his first fight and Anthony Joshua as his second

[MusoMeanderings]

He would have lost to both. Nobody places young amateurs against world champions in their first fight.

Tyson had talent, but not experience.

Because Francis Ngannou has been boxing since he was a child and won't get much better at this point.
With an extended crash course in Expanded Ranges, TD/TD D, Throws, Kicks, Use of knees & elbows, Wrestling and Submission Grappling placed carefully on his Boxing; he ruled the MMA world; a smaller pond populated by fighters who by their choice, disqualified themselves from the big money leagues.

But being able to hang in the top in Boxing is a long way up the mountain from that; as Joshua demonstrated.
People mistook Fury's playing with Ngannou and getting caught with a decent shot while off balance as Ngannou having something that he, as we now know, doesn't have.

If he wants to stay in the bigs, feed him to Wilder.

Ngannou has not been boxing since he was a child...

If I said he was, he was.

Arguing on the internet 101 crash course.

Also, your mom is so fat her butt cheeks are in different time zones.

I think there is a clear difference between Ngannou and Tyson. Tyson was born to fight....and was as animal ready as anyone to win. Could Fury have won mind games with Tyson....no chance. Would Joshua have been shetting his pants after seeing Tyson up close in the press conferences....absolutely. Against Joshua we likely would have gotten an early look at how the Bruno fight was going to go. Fury maybe more of a Brian Neilson outcome. Its easy to dismiss Mike after all that has happened in his life....but lets face it....back when he was just a boxer... he was a phenom the likes of which we havent seen again.
