Mike Tyson (1988) vs Mayweather (2010-15)

Discussion in 'Classic Boxing Forum' started by WelcomePaladin2, Jun 28, 2015.



  1. This isn't a troll question by any stretch of the imagination.

    Serious question. How does this mythical fight play out?

    Tyson was arguably the fastest heavyweight ever but Mayweather has godlike reflexes & could escape the much heavier mans punches.

    But all it takes is a tyson combo to get through and froid is in trouble.

    I'm going for Tyson TKO7

    Only two possible outcomes

    1. Mayweather runs for his life and loses a decision or gets DQ'd. for refusal to engage.

    2. He takes a dive in the first round to avoid serious damage.

    Fight is a moot point it because it wouldn't even be sanctioned for obvious reasons.:nut

    Mayweather had a much better career, is smarter, and is a much better P4P fighter, so draw your own conclusions..

    Sorry pal but I'm afraid it is a troll thread!
     
  10. This forum has attracted a lot of trolls recently. Hardly a single decent answer.

    But to be fair, I've thought about it through again. Maybe I was being a bit hasty in saying Froid lasts til the 7th. I think Tyson would apply lots of pressure and gets the knockout roughly in the 3rd or 4th round.

    This is in no way a troll thread, and Mayweather would knock Tyson out in the first round!!!!

    :lol::lol::lol:

    I refuse to believe the guy who started this thread wasn't trolling.

    Tyson KO 1 (25 seconds) Mayweather. It takes Mike 5 or 10 seconds to catch him.

    Of course there is not a decent answer. It is an inane thread. Everyone knows such a match would never be made between two guys who are 5 or 6 divisions apart.

    Floyd certainly wasn't scared of Mike, just watch the WBC convention where Tyson lunges in and pretends to throw a shot at Floyd. Floyd doesn't even flinch.
