    At first glance this seemed like a no brainer but the more I thought about it I'm thinking if the same Cocell showed up that fought Rocky M. he stops that version of Mike

    This is true.

    Tyson had no less than 23 first-round KOs !

    (maybe 18 or 19 were against bums, but that doesn't matter either)

    As brave as Don was, and he took some bloody hard punch s from Rock, I see Tyson being just too fast and powerful.
    Tyson by ko 2.

    Don was incredibly brave against Marciano, to be fair he went over there to win the title and gave it a go. Some of shots he took were unreal and he was stopped on his feet.
    I still feel though even that version of Tyson would have him out of there inside 3 rounds.

    Don's stand against Marciano was an epic of almost suicidal courage. A fight with the bigger, quicker and fast starting Tyson would be a horrible mismatch.

    I certainly wouldn't be writing Tyson off in this one.
