Tyson by mid round knockout

 

Lewis.

Would have always been too much for Mike.


Now on any given night...

McCall.....Rahman...



But in general, both at their best, Lewis.

I'm going with Tyson by 9 Rd Knockout, very competive fight

 

Well if I was to go with Tyson at all, I would pick the KO to come inside 5.

If they're still boxing in the 9th, Tyson's chances fade.


Considerably.

 

Nah I totally disagree, from 1985 - 88,

Mike was great at boxing for 12 rounds and had the stamina for it (Tucker, Smith - its more strain on your stamina when a man is leaning all his weight on you and mauling you)

remember Mike very rarely lost a round and in the Tucker fight he was using his great boxing skill from the outside and picking off great shots at mid range.

P.S

I think if Berbick was more durable Mike would of put on a great textbook preformance for 12 rounds, that night nothing was rushed, very accurate combo, setups. people always talk about his ferociousness that night but never about the skill he showed.

That was the best he ever boxed, just wish it had been against a more formidable opponent

 

Mike by early - mid KO/TKO. I just don't see Lennox keeping a prime Mike off long enough without getting KO'd. Lennox doesn't have a great chin and he's very hittable once you get inside his range.

Tyson in his prime was the best at neutralizing a tall guys reach and jab. He would find his way inside frequently and Lewis would get bombed out at that point.

 

I agree. Spot on.

 

Tyson ko 6 lewis

 

If Manny's training LL, then he'll probably win a decision. If its Pepe, then Mike gets to LL within in 5.

 

One of these that I've always been 50/50 on. If Tyson explodes on Lewis early,then he wins. If Lennox lasts past the eighth or ninth,he knocks Tyson out.

 

Since when did Lewis become Marciano in terms of stamina

 

The Lewis of 1996 beats any version of Tyson.
