Who wins in their prime?

This has been discussed ad nauseum, but Foreman. Either incarnation

 

Iron Mike

 

Rofl Fraizer didn't have near the same amount of power as Tyson.

 

Tyson. Foreman lunged a bit too much and I think Tyson could take advantage

 

Tyson isn’t getting near Foreman without walking into some massive shots. And I know for certain who’s chin I am backing if both guys land.

 

Sorry, even a prime pre-comeback Foreman didn't have the handspeed to land on a prime Tyson with that head movement. Tyson had the handspeed and sharpness to land on Foreman. I know it was a few years past his peak, but if Ron Lyle could hit and hurt Foreman as often as he did, imagine what Tyson could do.

 

SMH at people picking old Foreman, the guy lost to Tommy Freaking Morrison. Young Foreman vs Prime Mike would be brutal....coin flip for me. I never really bought into the Foreman is a terrible match up for Tyson stuff. I'm gonna take heat for this....but comeback Foreman was about a Bonecrusher Smith level of fighter. Impressive feat for his age, but we wouldn't be talking about a guy who's best win is a hail Mary against Moorer if it wasn't Big George.

 

Sure but you could argue Tyson had a good defence, he had great head movement and could avoid foremans shots, but Foreman's defence wasn't exactly amazing in comparison, and Foreman is definitely taking Tysons best shots.

It could definitely go either way, but Foreman is more likely to get hit than Tyson.

 

Ask Marvis about that....

 

Foreman was very hittable and slow which is a bad combo against Mike

 

Foreman can take Tyson’s best shots. Tyson isn’t KO’ing Foreman in any scenario.

Can Tyson take Foreman’s heat when he’s trying to get inside? Not a chance in hell.

 

Tyson for me

 

So Ali can KO Foreman but Tyson can't?

 

I don't think anyone beats a prime tyson.

 

Except Douglas.
