Weird question I know but Tyson was the best heavyweight in a weak division. Put Wilder in a time machine where there is no Mike Tyson how do you think he would stacked up against Tyson's opponents?

not well. Wilder has not fought anyone with a pulse. The division was much stronger when Tyson was champ than it is now IMO. Lennox and Holyfield annihilate him.
Wilder does have the KO power, but its hard to see him beating Ruddock, tillman bonecrusher, tucker, tubbs, spinks or Bruno given he hasn't beaten anyone nearly this good. -
he'd have to spend time fighting professionallly in the lower ranks to learn to fight. otherwise, he isn't even making it to contention.
the contenders / champions [tyson, bowe, holyfield, lewis being the best] would have croaked him.
can you imagine deontay wilder vs rid**** bowe? wilder vs lewis? wilder vs holyfield?
he'd get f#cking killed.Comment

Which Tyson era? The early "young phenom" Tyson era was absolutely dismal and Wilder would have been a top contender if not a champion.
Later on not so much. Lewis would have killed the guy and 10 others would have embarrassed him.Comment

Yeah that's what I was thinking the "young phenom" era. Your absolutely right too.Comment

Tyson would have caved his skinny rib caged, Tyson KO in 2Comment

He would have never made it out of his first sparring session alive. They would have murdered him for daring to set foot in the gym, because every fighter that laced them up was incredible.
Back in the 80's, fighters used to cut down entire trees with their penises. Daily.Comment
