    Young Mike Tyson vs Anthony Joshua?

    How would a 20 year old Mike Tyson (Jake Paul's hero) have dealt with Anthony Joshua's size, power, and physicality?

    Mike started boxing at 13

    Josh began at 18

    Josh is plagued by late start stiffness

    Guys who start young have this muscle memory fluidity that late starters find extremely difficult to acquire

        AJ don't like speed or aggression

        I pick Tyson

        I think dubious would do decent with Tyson you need to back him up and be aggressive yourself. You can't just let Tyson come to you and let him close distance at his pace and dictate the space, you have to disrupt him

          Could end the same way with Bruno
          AJ never faced a guy as fast with the hands as Mike.
          Could AJ make the correct adjustments ?
          Or would he be a deer caught in the headlights ?

          I'm guessing not

            Young Tyson would be a handful for anyone. His speed and power were scary. Shame we never saw his true potential.

                Joshua is a bum Mike hit him with the 1 2 body head combo and you have to look for Joshua in the 3rd row
