    Tyson was far more explosive in the opening rounds than Louis. He'd have come out just as fast against Braddock .Tyson hurts him early ,Braddock maybe survive s the first 4 or 5 round's ,but doesn't get past 6.Even the Tokyo version stops James J .

    Tyson would KO Braddock.
    Douglas would beat Braddock, probably by KO.

    Baer would have destroyed Braddock too, if he actually made an effort to fight. Baer threw that one, for some reason.

    As hungry as Jim Braddock was, I do not see him surviving the Mike Tyson from Feb 11 1990. Even though Mike was not at the top of his game, there is no way, he even had a hard time with Max Baer Sr. Mike KO 2.

    I wouldn't say he threw it more than he gave it away.

    Either way, he really didn't try to win. Looked like he was rooting for the underdog. :lol:

    Tyson KO 1
    Douglas takes a bit longer, 3/4 rounds

    He would also need at least one glove like an anvil.

    I happen to think Douglas beat a good version of Tyson. His prep for Douglas was less shambolic than Tyson had against Tony Tucker. The facts back this up.
