Hey man watch rocky 3 get 2 old foes together and swap styles.

I know tyson could have boxed defensively like Jones in his last fight.
As far as dancing it would have to be the right opponent. physically I dont think it matters what kind of legs he has if he circles and moves .......man your talking about a true indestructable force. In order to dance you must use your jab very effectively. Tyson would have to slim down and build up his stamina and maintain a weight under 218. Stylistically he would have to be able to switch from defensive low risk boxing to dancing to IMO style which is alot of work. tyson had a style to make him great. But he didnt have the patience or mindset to be a boxer that utilizes the ring.

It would be nice to see him go into a fight with someone like holifield or Lewis and have them expect an old straight forward fighter, but once the bell rings bam Tyson's jab to Lewis body hookin to the head with a right and get this steppin back and start dancing and taunting lewis daring him to hit him after Tyson lands a couple of clean ones and twos while circling Lewis for a couple rounds,Lewis charges the little loud mouth and bam Tyson dips(trademark dip) and ko that mofo with an uppercut.....


To bad Tyson wont change styles, to answer the question yes but not like ali or holmes tyson would have to be real slick and pick his spots considering the fact that he is 5'10 fightin 6'5 heavyweights.
