    Do you think Zanon would go 4 the early KO, or just punish Mike 4 15 rds and then knock him out? Hey, no disrespect 4 Lorenzo, he was actually a very good boxer, tactician. He just had no power or chin

    Tyson annihilates him. It would look like Joe Louis vs Chuck Wepner. Something like that. As for Louis vs Wepner, I'll let you figure out who annihilates whom.

    In all seriousness, I suppose the slick Zanon could last a few rounds with an off-night Tyson, frustrating Mike in the process. But ultimately any version of Tyson, including the McBride version, gets Zanon out before the fifth. Top of his game Tyson gets Zanon out in under a minute.

    These ridiculous "fantasy" fights do get old. What is the point?

    Even a come backing Jerry Quarry kayoed Lorenzo Zanon in round 9 on Nov 5 1977 on the under card of Jimmy Young vs Ken Norton. Mike Tyson would have easily destroyed poor Lorenzo, who may be mobile, but does not have the footwork or speed of a prime Muhammad Ali. Tyson by KO 3.

    This is an inane matchup

    But you denegrated and acted like you were above analyzing a very good matchup in Tony Tubbs v. Carl Wiiliams a week or so ago.
