21-0 Mike Tyson vs Joshua?

Watch the Frank Bruno fight, that should tell you everything you need to know.

^That was the first thing I thought of.

Often say that as a joke, but it's crazy how similar these two can be at times.

I see your posts and they're not bad, but dude come on man. This is ludicrous. Just cuz Wilder took some shots and didn't fold from a 40 year-old Ortiz doesn't mean he can hang with the best version of Tyson.

Lets keep it real, if that wasn't Wilder and some b-level cat the ref would have stopped the fight in the 7th.

I'm talking AJ-Tyson. And for the record, I agree with you. I think Tyson ghosts both of them.

Tyson would blitz the hell out of AJ, and the fight would be over in 5 rounds or less with Joshua wondering what happened as he wakes up to seeing stars.

Tyson would have problems reaching Joshua's head, but what would define it is that Joshua likes to fight in mid-range, so he would be inside of Tyson range too much for his own good. A lot of guys lost for Tyson because they were trying to fight at mid range, the way to win is by going from outside to inside and back without getting stuck between them, and J oshua doesn't do it

So far I've heard some pretty bad comparisons to AJ/Wilder.

Prior to fighting Tyson, Biggs' last 5 opponent's record was a combined 78-34. Biggs' KO ratio is also literally half of AJ/Wilder's.

Biggs would immediately lose by KO to Diamiani, Mason, and a UD to Hunt.

Frank Bruno was previously stopped by Witherspoon and Smith, both guys with 50% KO ratios. Bruno was also barely 228 at his peak when he fought Tyson, that is the same size as Bryant Jennings not AJ. AJ has eaten clean shots on the chin from much bigger punchers like Wlad.



Overall you have to believe Mitch Green, Diamani, Ribalta, Mason, Hunt, and a host of other journeymen/part time boxers were some how capable of doing things that AJ/Wilder cannot.

Looks like Biggs was the Audley Harrison of the time. Well, I still get Tyson winning because Joshua would have trouble with his head movement and get too close

So, you're basically saying that Wilder beats Tyson.

Anthony Joshua =/= Deontay Wilder.
