Are my friends right when they say an average dude can beat M Tyson in a street fight

[Boxing Goat]

Pity there wasnt an army of average teen wrestlers from america back in 1939 ,they could have just swam over to germany and put hitler and his men in headlocks

That's kind of what we did but point taken

[HewJohnson]

Nope. Don't give a f and you don't know all white folk. Some of them would put you down and keep you there. Nothing goofy about that.

Yep, and there's east asians and punjabi indians with k0cks twice the size of yours. Your point?

Doesn't change the fact that what I said is most likely true.

[Tatabanya]

I will have to take your word for it because I definitely will not be researching to verify that lol

Haha, no research needed... just stick for a while in any thread discussing Tyson. Sure enough, at one point BKM will raid the place and tear down anybody who's expressing even the faintest praise for Iron Mike. The guy's on a mission, a few days ago he managed to stuff Tyson inside a man's boobs thread.

This is the same vein of dorky wishful thinking as the "Prove we aren't brains in jars" freshman year dorm smokeout rabbit holes reasonable people outgrow in their mid to late 20s. It's fine

Average dude with a *******, maybe

[Tatabanya]

Average Dude would see Mike, the adrenalin would kick in and Average Dude would do a Usain Bolt.

Best reply in this thread!

Yup, no explanation. But I can give you one: Boxers can't stop it. Otherwise every single boxing match ever would just end in a KO from one boxer countering a clinch attempt. Clinching would simply go extinct in boxing wouldn't it.

The only people who might ever do that are guys who can strike as well as grapple, they know exactly how to time takedown attempts because they train grappling all day themselves. Boxers don't.

They're called MMA fighter, and even then, a KO on a takedown attempt still almost never ever happens. 9 out of 10 times the guy gets taken down or stuff the takedown. Boxers have no clue how to handle it.

Just one other thing, I'm even giving you guys a break. The grappler could just make it impossible by going for low single/double leg takedowns and the boxer is even more screwed since he would have to land a hail mary once in a lifetime shot on a guy who's head is below his knees.

You forgot the gif of Mercer-Sylvia..........

In the street the wrestler's getting a knee or foot the head, and if he's lucky enough to get past those he's getting his eyes gouged or 12-6 elbows which mma doesn't allow to protect wrestlers going for takedowns. And no, the wrestler's not going to do the same, cause he needs his hands for control.

You've clearly never been in a fight if you think rolling around on asphalt in street clothes is smart.

An average gorilla maybe.

**** I just dreamt I kicked Mike Tyson ass. I need to call him to apologize as I don’t want him returning the favor or worse to me in real life.
