    That's the exact issue with Tysons resume, the what if.

    He did beat Foreman but Foreman was a old man, and by the time he came around to the other legit Heavyweights, he was a shell of himself.

    Would he have beat 1989 version of Holyfield and Lewis? Who knows

      I have little doubt that Ali not only beats Tyson, but dominates him.

        it's 50-50 imo, i think of the ali vs frazier fights for a similarity in clash of styles. i do also have to put in the cus d'amato factor for tyson. as someone already mentioned if they fought 10 times in their primes not just physically but mentally as well then it would be a coin flip.

          It would be an interesting matchup.

          I remember during an interview when asked, Tyson said that he could never beat Ali. Not sure if he was serious or it was just his way of paying respect to the legend.

              Yea i saw that. He was talking about Ali's determination and will to win and refusal to lose. I think he called him a "trex with a pretty face, that takes you to deep waters and drowns you" .

              was is that interview, if not share a link pleez
