[satiev1]

Prime tyson beats a prime foreman but then a prime tyson beats any hw of any era.

- -Tyson soiled hisself when offered ol'fat George by King.

Just sayin'...

But please, let's all pretend that Tyson was the one who was so scared of George Foreman.

I got Tyson in 8

Both could win but I'll go for Foreman.

[a.rihn]

Both guys were absolutely terrifying. Ill tempered beasts, with the intention to hurt, and the tools to achieve it.

I don't know who would win. Tyson was a lot faster, but Foreman was mentally stronger and had a significant reach advantage.

This is one of the best fantasy match ups I can think of.

^^ What he said.

[KillaMane26]

Oh nooo. Foreman destroys Mike.... Think this is terrible match up for Mike

I think this the type of fight to expose Mikes unstable mental state.

But man it would fireworks.... But i just can't see Mike winning unless he takes him out early.

But i will say Mike would get in alot of counter punches since Prime Foremon fought like a rock'em sock'em robot lmao...

[HandsofIron]

you got those swapped.

foreman was 220.

prime tyson was under 220, like 215.

Ehh, they were around the same 220 lbs which was the standard for HW until the Super Heavies arrived, i.e. Klit/Lewis.

Most of the Heavies in the 70's were around 205-215 lbs.

If tyson couldnt hurt foreman he would be discouraged and stopped via tko late . My gut says foreman via late tko . The man who beat frazier would beat Tyson imo . He was sub human . Tyson had a very hard fight with razor ruddock , prime george would have beat ruddock via savage destruction in the first and second round . That being said tysom wasnt prime there so I dont like my example but Tyson didnt look good when the going got tough .making this pick is not easy prime tyson is a head to head nightmare for alot of tough fighters .

Prime vs prime, who takes it and how? Could the much smaller Iron Mike chop down the bigger man? Or does George Foreman give Tyson a grilling?

Foreman by knockout. He's bigger, he's tougher, and never quit like Tyson did.

I'm assuming you realize that Foreman was in his 40's at this point. That wasn't prime Foreman .
