Mike Tyson is still better than the most active heavyweights

[uncle_ray]

Price or Spilka would hurt Tyson badly, no problem. You guys can't be serious

Tyson might beat 1300 of those 1400 heavyweights but he would lose to the other 100. He is still just a shell of his prime self. I will only watch him when it's free. If I want to see more of Tyson I will watch replays of Tyson fighting in his prime.

Then make Wilder vs Tyson happen!

Criminal, Wilder would destroy him. So would most active top 50 heavyweights, age shouldn't be ignored and the fact if a guy like McBride can beat him when he was still young what would happen now?

Yea, I was just being sarcastic as I see lots of Tyson fanboys and casuals sharing the same sentiments that Mike should come back full-time and beat the top heavyweights today, it's ridiculous.

That goes without saying.

Would someone bet against Mike if opposed to, say, David Price or Artur Szpilka?

I would.

2005 so 15 years algo Tyson lost twice in a row by KO to Kevin McBride and Danny Williams (who now has a record of 54-29).

He has not gotten better since then.

He just fought a former career supermiddleweight who was 50+ himself and so looked wonderfull, doesn't mean he will do great versus young big heavyweights, even goofy a77 ones like Price, Price is 9 inches taller than Mike and 20+ years younger.

Price has a suspect jaw but Mike can't even drop a 50 years old "yall musta forgot".

Exactly, Mike could not beat top 50 HW 15 years ago since he lost to Williams and Mcbride.

Not happening now, he just drew with a smaller guy who was stopped by Danny Green and Enzo Mac years ago.

Most fans on this forum have amnesia and DKSAB.

So you are another person who thinks that last Saturday's fight was real? I can't believe how many there are. It was choreography from beginning to end. And you told another guy that people DKSAB when you can't separate a real fight from an exhibition?

In regard to the initial chunk of your post, Tyson vs McBride and Williams was at his all-time worst as far as addictions are concerned, and could not care less about training and fighting if not to repay debts. Absurdly, he is in better shape now than he was then. I am not saying he would win for sure vs Price or Szpilka and the likes on the same level, but with a rigid training regime and a couple of softer fights before, he would definitely stand a chance. And, given Price's chin, yes - I'd bet on Tyson to knock Pricey out. One punch would be enough.

For the record, I'm not one who believes Tyson should really come back. I'm just fantasizing.

I never said it was a real fight. it was some sparring on TV.

Tyson's punch resistance is probably worst than Price's at this point...
