Tough to say, it was shown in his earlier career(Bonecrusher, Tillis,Green) and of course Douglas, that Tyson has problems w/ taller opponents that move and jab and more importantly don't cower to him. I think that in his prime Tyson would have shown more fire and will to win then he did when they finally fought seven years to late, Lewis had always had a somewhat suspect chin so, I could see Tyson landing one and putting him out, or exactly how it did end via Douglas style. -

Same result. Tyson always would have the chance to land the big one, but Lewis would have been supremley motivated for Tyson, unlike when he was caught by McCall and Rahman. Lewis was just too big, too strong, and too skilled for Tyson.Comment

They fought. Lewis is one year older than Tyson. Lewis KOed him.
What's the problem here?
Lewis would beat Tyson 19/20 times. He's tall. He's got a good jab. He's strong. And he's not afraid. Tyson can only beat people who are afraid of him. Buster Douglas? That was his prime - no excuses, please. And Lewis can beat Buster Douglas pretty bad.Comment

The Lewis that fought Tyson was about 80% of his prime version, the Tyson that fought Lewis was about 25% of his prime version.
