Prime Mike Tyson vs Anthony Joshua

Tyson not even close, AJ sure as hell isn't making it 12 and losing by decision like Bonecrusher, there's a good chance it could be another 1st round KO for the dynamite

 

Round 1 the big dosser is getting knocked out cold

 

It’d be a fun one - AJ would lose but I’d really want to tune in for it. It’s unlikely Joshua makes it past the 4th if he goes out looking for the KO.

 

A repeat of Mike Tyson vs Frank Bruno.

 

I went with Tyson by KO. Anthony Joshua’s fighting style and shaky chin would be something that Tyson could take advantage of. Joshua is a seemingly nice guy. Had a great amateur career. Has a lot of physical tools. And good for him for becoming a champion. But at the end of the day I just don’t think he’s that good in comparison to the greats of the sport. No intended knock on him

 

Agree. I wouldn’t predict a walk in the park for Tyson. But a KO at some point either by or before the mid rounds seems likely to me

 

the vote is 9 - 0 Tyson,, waiting on NoNecK to make it 9 - 1

 

AJs chin is none existent. Mental stability, in my opinion, has never been good. Mentally beaten before the bell and physically sleeped inside 4.

 

I like AJ a lot but he doesn’t stand a chance. I rewatched his fight with Povetkin recently and saw how much AJ struggled with an explosive left hook coming from a shorter opponent. I can’t see AJ taking too many from Tyson.

 

AJ is built to be destroyed by Tyson. Tyson in 2-4.

 

Tyson fairly quickly. Possible that AJ shakes him a bit prior to being stopped a la Frank Bruno.

 

1st or second round Tyson KO. Tyson too fast and aggressive. I also believe AJ would already be mentally shook before the fight even began a la Michael Spinks

 

AJ is beginning to get underrated and is quite skillful, but I do not see him surviving Iron Mike.
