ali v tyson who wins?

[PbP Bacon]

Prime Ali destroys Prime Tyson hands down

Tyson by early rounds tko

[SirKillalot]

If Ali manages to control the first three rounds, he wins it on UD. Maybe stoppage, but I doubt it. Tyson early wasn't scared of anything.

But, if Tyson gets a smack in early. Ali in trouble for sure.

[Zmora]

Ali would be to fast. He wouldn't let Tyson get close and dominate him on the outside.

Even Tyson hit him then what? Ali took bigger punches and Mike wouldn't hit him with more than 1 punch a time so no way he KD's him with accumulation

Ali by wide UD or if it was 15 rounder he would make Tyson gas and KO him.

On the other hand I would have problems picking Ali to have beaten Klits but I'm more than sure that prime Tyson would destroy them.

You realize that Ali defeated harder punchers than Tyson right? Ali beat Foreman,Liston,Shavers and Lyle. Ali was only stopped once. Tyson was beaten by Buster Douglas by KO. Come on man. Ali would fuck him up.

[KINGOFTHE1ROUND]

Ali was tough enough to handle harder punchers than Tyson. Ali took Foreman's bombs on the hips and chest and was able to KO him. Foremen was a far better fighter and greater champ than Tyson from an all time great standpoint. Ali survives the early Tyson attack and fucks him up late. Plus Ali would be so inside Tyson's angry little head before the fight. Ali would make fun of his voice,his height his haircut,his teeth etc. Tyson would be so mad,he might be beaten before he steps in the ring.

Sad but accurate summary.

[Azzer85]

I posted a thread on here about a year ago on Holmes, Atlas, Rooney, Cayton, Torres, Patterson opinions on who would win

All of the above picked Ali.

Agree with alot of what you said

But i dont see ALi 'intimidating' Tyson. def not verbally.

Tyson wasnt quiet like Liston, Foreman, Frazier. Tyson could use his mouth as well.

Any version of Ali circa 1964-1975 beats Tyson,imo.

[Jojoba]

The ubiquitous question, only a Sugar Ray face off comes close.
Ali never fought someone with the combined speed and power of Mike, he was a new kind of beast, the heavy hitters of Ali's era were plodders. Remember Holmes.. never down.. until he met Mike and then he hit the floor like a 16 stone sack o shite.
Prime to Prime probably the 2 best ever. I'd go with Mike by savage KO but in the rematch take Ali by UD

[whopperdong]

tyson by murder.
prime tyson is the most complete beast with have ever seen at hw.
