    How would Prime Tyson do in todays HW division?

    How would he do against AJ, Wilder, Fury?

    I know the HW today are giants but the Povetkin fight against AJ with his bootleg Tyson peek a boo style was giving AJ problems.

    With Tysons speed and power i think he has a chance.

    He would fit right in with the resume part, but he is more skilled them these guys, but his will is suspect as when things get tough he finds away out

      He would beat them all by and probably by KO. Giant heavyweights have always been around and they are rarely the best. Tyson was 220 pounds of lean muscle and that's plenty big enough. Hit as hard as anyone fighting today with more speed and skill.

          Tyson always fell apart when things started to turn against him in a fight.People proclaim him one of the greatest of all time yet he wasn’t the greatest of his Generation.Make excuses for him especially ones you wouldn’t accept from another fighter but he lost the three biggest fights of his career vs champions who were not scared of him and beat him like a red headed step child.

            Not well

            Tyson never beat an elite super heavyweight

            Mike was a force but he's not going to have it all his own way vs these guys and he literally NEVER overcame adversity in his career.

                Wow.in 80s Mike Tyson would breeze through those guys.with that speed power and being technically sound they wouldn't even come close.but when cuss died and he got himself into trouble he had lost all that by the time the 90s came about.he lost focus lost his will power.thats how the devil works.he claimed another one smh

                  Giants today can box or punch

                  Tyson Fury is a much better boxer than Gerry cooney, primo carnera or that pinklon dude in Tyson era.

                  Wilder also would knock them out IMO
