Haymakers Galore! - 1973 PRIME Foreman VS 1986 "Prime" Tyson - Who wins And why??

This has been done to DEATH!!!!

There are no parallels between Tyson and Frazier apart from their height.

In EVERY department, Tyson was far superior.

He hit harder
Had quicker hands
Better footwork
Better defence
A more COMPLETE arsenal
Wasn't over reliant on his left hook

He might have not hard the same heart as Frazier, but when you are a SUPERIOR athlete in every department, that means little.

 

Funny that tyson weight was more then foreman, Remember young geroge had bad stamina. If he could not ko tyson with head movement in 4 rounds it could become more difficult for him late ron. A lot of people think tyson would loose because he was short like Frazier.

 

Prime Tyson can not be compared to Frazier - Frazier was, just like young Tyson, a wrecking machine, but Frazier was always willing to take a shot in order to land his own (left hook). This spelled disaster against Foreman of course, who was one of the strongest and most powerful punchers ever at HW. If Frazier was a truck, then Foreman was a brick wall, and the brick wall was too strong.

Tyson could never finish Foreman in a couple rounds. If he tried that, he'd end just like Frazier. However, I can very well see Tyson adjust to Foreman and resort to boxing him. And a young Tyson had the speed and the skills to go the distance with Foreman. We must not forget that Tyson had a good chin and excellent defense too.
The most important thing here is the mental aspect though. An argument can be made that a prime Foreman would be BY FAR the best opponent Tyson would have faced. We also know that Tyson 'can' (not always 'will') be discouraged in a fight that doesn't go his way and he doesn't get the KO. With Foreman not crumbling, but standing up to Tyson, would Tyson give up the fight mentally instead and let Foreman take control? We know that if a fighter on prime Foremans level gets control in a fight, he destroys his opponent. But I think that, since we are dealing with a PRIME Tyson here, Mike could keep his composure and box his way to a decision. The role of his great trainer and corner would also be important, I'm sure they would find the right game plan against Foreman and guide Tyson through the difficult stretches of this fight (and there would certainly be such hard stretches for him).
Tyson UD in a competitive fight.

 

Hows the Trolling going Foreman Hook?....Dont forget to wipe Big Georges' Jizz off your face :hi:

 

******.

 

Foreman has a great chin and was physically strong and would in my opinion bully Tyson around

Tyson would tire and Foreman would knock him out

 

Stop sucking Foreman's dick, please. I said this in my other topic, stop worshipping him like he's some god.

 

Thank god someone finally sees sense

 

I luv both guys.............but foreman is all wrong for tyson
george foreman beats on mike tyson for 7 rds...... 7 rd tko winner george foreman.

 

Why is Foreman all wrong for Tyson, just wondering?

 

maybe im being a bit dim here, but young foreman for me was NOT the ustoppable, unj beatable monster so many of you seem to think he was....anyone who thinks the ali that stopped him was a prime ali is deluded..and anyone who thinks that the ron lyle who gave him hell or the jimmy young whobeat him were great, or atg fighters are equally short sighted...

foreman hit HARD but his punches were slow, telegrtaphed, tyson, peak tyson anyway sees them coming a mile away...i really see tyson taking this fight within 10 roiunds OR in a brutal but winn9ong 12 round points victroy like vs ruddock....and no, im not saying that ruddock is as good as foreman, i just mean that style of fight

 

LOL How?
You make Foreman seem like a god?
I don't include Tyson in all of my posts, unlike you.
