    If he trained in the early 90's in kickboxing could you see him doing well? It would have been cool to see him in K-1 against Andy Hug, Ernesto Hoost, Mirko Crocop, and others. Only thing Tyson would have to work on was his leg kicks and stamina a bit more.

    Most of these noob posters don't know **** about any other martial arts other than boxing. So be prepared to get a load of posts full of mixed messages.

    Mike was one of the greatest hws ever but I dont think he would have done all that well in kicknoxing with those toothpick legs.

    He wd obviously fly thro the lot. Most damage in kick boxi is done with hands. But saying that his style could lend to walking onto a high rd house

    In realty he a blast them all out soon as he let them go

    Toothpick legs? I would have said the opposite. His legs were very thick so I'd imagine he might have not been the right build for kickboxing.

    His height would have given him problems against Semmy Schilt. Other than that, he'd have a similar record to his boxing career (beating some impressively, losing to others when his motivation wasn't there).
