Canelo vs current Mike Tyson.

[South Champion]

Canelo went up to Light Heavyweight and knocked out Sergey Kovalev.

If Canelo fought Tyson, he wouldn't have to cut weight, but he'd likely still be well below 200. Tyson is much older, but will be less rusty after the Jones fight.

Tyson would put up a better fight than Julio Cesar Chavez Jr did. What kind of numbers would this do on PPV if it happened on Cinco de Mayo?

i wouldnt rule it out happening, canelo has a thing for going after old fighters

seriuosly? 54 yr old mike vs canelo?

First of all, that fight has absolutely ZERO chance of ever happening. Mike is talking about just "staying in shape" kinds of fights, exhibitions for charity. In no way, shape, or form would he participate in competitive prize fighting. Even with the weight difference, it's a horrible idea for Tyson.

That being said, would it sell and be talked about ? Sure, the whole world would be talking about it.

This wouldn't be Mike Tyson vs current Heavyweight champs like Fury or AJ. This is him versus a guy who campaigns at 160 and 168, who won a title at 175 against a battle worn Kov.

If Tyson wants to raise money for charity, Canelo is a blown up Middleweight who happens to be the biggest draw in boxing.

They would never license Tyson for this fight. Canelo would win. Tyson is too old. I doubt the fight would even sell well. Only people that didnt seriously follow boxing would fall for paying for this fight

They would license this fight in Mexico or an overseas location that would want the money the fight would generate.

Mayweather vs McGregor is the 2nd biggest PPV ever, people will pay for these sideshows.

Yeah raise money, but not by getting hurt or permanently damaged. 60 years of age is right around the corner. Pigeons, weed, and his family come first. He doesn't sound in the least bit "desperate" to fight and raise money. It's just a good way to keep from getting fat in old age, and get some money and notoriety on the side.

Now if Canelo was about to retire, and agreed to just some public sparring... okay yeah it would sell. Nothing really competitive or risky. But you already know that.

Tyson.

Canelo is a midget. The only reason why he’s a champion is because they made paralympic divisions for tiny men.

Tyson would destroy him
