    Which other type of boxing style or the boxing style of another boxer would be really effective for Mike Tysons' body type and athleticism?
    IMO I think Canelo's boxing style would work really well for him

    Probably a swarming/brawling style. He had power, speed and a good chin.

    Styles that put relentless pressure on the enemy with fast hand speed and good stamina. Canelo as mentioned, Maidana, Castano, etc.

    With his head movement, he could have fought like Archie Moore.
