    How could Mike Tyson beat Tyson Fury when Fury a foot taller and out weighs him by 50 pounds.

    He moves constantly though disrupting range, then you have a reach advantage that’s huge, an Fury has enough iq to spoil Tyson in close which Tyson isn’t great at anyway by draping over him. Part of me thinks MT does his thing an scores a KO at some stage, then you look at the size difference and it’s a lot to overcome to land from MT

    Thanks for the update. Unfortunately for Fury there are no more killers at the heavyweight division anymore so he won't ever be proving it

    Tyson would have a field day with Fury’s soft mid section. Have him spewing marsh mallows for a week.

    Cus's Tyson would brutalise Fury imo. Same as he'd have brutalised Wlad, and would lay out Wilder and Joshua.

    It is more than 50 lbs. if you take Fury in his last fight, but in real height it is likely no more than 10".

    Because he punched harder and was a better finisher.

    Fury overcommits with the jab bringing his head past his lead knee, which means his head would be nearer Tyson`s fists everytime he jabs and Mike was the greatest fighter in history at evading and countering the jab.

    I believe MT would have found ways to get inside. If we're going by the best version of each, the MT Cus trained would do it. He had a beautiful bob & weave attack. He killed the body and went up w/ his hand speed fury can only wish to have. Older post-prison MT, maybe Fury beats, if he does everything textbook 100%.

    20 year old Mike Tyson would beat 20 year old Tyson Fury.

    Not Fury's fault that it took many more years to master his gangly limbs and co-ordinate his massive frame. Meanwhile midget Mike who had been drilled to an inch of his life by Atlas and Cus was a tight sharp fighter at that age.

    John Fury and Tyson wouldn't be dumb enough to jump in with Mike Tyson at his debut though. Mike was basically fully developed skill wise at a very young age, a muscle memory fighter.

    25 onwards though...it's all Fury.

    Mike is basically no threat after 6 rounds to a prime Fury and Fury would pick him apart.

    It's cute though that people still overate and hype Mike Tyson to death. Who are his best wins? Current Fury is a more versatile and complete package. Mike has a set pattern of fighting which would blow through most heavyweights of any era, but them men who can stand up to him for over 4/5 rounds (rioded holyfield) and take him deep normally can drown him.

    One thing is certain, MT was an engima. He'll always be hard to properly gauge IMO.

    Fury’s footwork will solve that problem
