    I think up to the Golota fight where he fractured Golota's cheek bone and herniated 2 of his vertebrae in his neck would beat Wilder. That was a 34 year old Tyson so a 33 year old Tyson KO's Wilder.

    After that though Tyson was shot, he was overweight for Nielsen and Lewis and looked dreadful.

      Even though Douglas took Tyson apart and Wilder is larger and better than Buster in every way with legendary power?

        Tyson was finished at 33. He could still punch but everything that made him so good in his early twenties had gone. The speed, footwork and head movement disappeared after the holyfield fights. If he caught wilder it would be over, but my money would be on wilder.

          I don't think Tyson even had a punchers chance, he hit guys like Mitch Green, Tillis, Douglas, and others from pillar to post, could not knock them out. Most of his 1 punch knockouts were against bums or smaller guys.

          Can't see any version of Tyson beating Wilder.

            Wilder by knockout, relatively easy knock out for Wilder too, horrible style match up for Tyson.

            Wilder's jab would keep him at bay especially with the power behind it, Tyson rushes in and gets caught with a right hand that puts him to sleep.

              Tyson in his early twenties destroys wilder. Too fast, too powerful and with the fitness to do it for 12 rounds.

                Its like jordan vs lebron or KD. Lebron and KD have to much size and can shoot better. Wilder is just to big and has more power, he would keep Tyson and the end of that stick and take him out with one of those right hand bombs.

                  Sooner or later, some of you will realize, the younger athletes are better conditioned and have built off of the knowledge of the players before them....and simply got better, in MOST sports, if not all

                    Mitch Green ate Tyson's punches for a full 10 rounds, knocked out by an 8-22 fighter his next bout.

                    Tillis ate Tyson's punches, went the distance, previously stopped twice.

                    Ribalta almost went the distance lasting 10, previously stopped by an 0-1 fighter.

                    Smith went the distance, previously stopped twice, stopped a few times afterwards.

                    Wilder ain't getting knocked out, he's much harder to hit than all these guys, stronger, better pure boxer, never been stopped, and has the touch of death for all 12. Wilder KO.

                      I think a prime Tyson KOs any version of Wilder. Wilder seems as good as ever or maybe better than ever at 33 while Tyson had gone down hill a lot at 33. I'll pick Wilder by KO.
