    I doubt Tyson stops him in 1 or 2

    Take this back to 2018 when AJ is 22-0 and I'd bet at least 40% would have picked Joshua to win.
    Not me.

    Could Joshua beat Ruddock ,Bruno, Tillis,
    Tubbs, Smith, Thomas, or THAT version
    of Larry Holmes would be a better question.
    Prime Tyson would annihilate any version
    of Joshua..... Fight last 6rds only if Tyson
    feels a little sadistic as he was for Biggs and
    want to torture Joshua a bit.

    I was going to vote AJ just to stir things up a bit, but I couldn't bring myself to lying.

    Tyson by absolute brutal KO.
    Kid dynamite mostly always fought much bigger men and destroyed them, before fighting Frank Bruno he stated, Frank is such a massive man how can i miss hitting him.

    I don't get why people compare AJ to Bruno, Bruno was legitimately tough, I think he might be the only person that fought 80's and 90's Tyson

    AJ could possibly beat them all, but he would be severely tested.

    The poll is unanimous for Tyson by KO

    Glad to see everyone is in agreement, Prime Mike would steamroll AJ in 1-2 rounds, and he would do the same to Wilder.

    I don't see it being over in the first like some predict but Tyson was a true fighter.
    He'd have eventually stopped AJ, Maybe around 4 - 6.

    I'm not even sure Joshua qualifies as a sparring for Tyson.

    MMA guys can’t punch. Can’t box.

    First minute K.O. Possibly the fastest K.O in boxing history.

    Interesting, mr Warren and John Fury have assured me Ngannou is a harder fight than Usyk. Will be tuning for the Fury circus sorry I mean fight?
