    Even a 1 in a million chance is a chance, so in that case I agree.
    But when we're talking a realistic chance then NO.

    A 54 year old Tyson may still be able to throw a solid punch and can put together a decent combination, but what about taking a punch? We've seen all the 10-second clips demonstrating his strength and speed in very short bursts which could allow him to offensively survive one round (and MAYBE succeed), but where's the defense - the evidence that he can take punches from a young competitive heavyweight for a full round? As he's said, "everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth."

    I'm sorry but the mike tyson fandom is pathetic. He was a great fighter but get over it people his time is over. I got no issue if he and RJJ wanna do an exhibition for charity but it's clear that everyone remotely involved in fighting for a living just name drops tyson for clicks and exposure.

    Danny Williams took him out in three rounds 16 years ago.

    It was hilarious when Enzo KO'd Roy Jones. Great KO.
    I'd be very surprised if the top HW's couldn't run and smother for the opening rounds and avoid getting nailed.
