    I know all will say Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, Ali, and Ali.

    But I'm here to argue for Tyson.

    *Youngest HW ever

    *Only 5'10 (178 cm), when will we ever see such a small HW?

    *Real athlete body, always in shape. More Than Ali.

    *His KO punches and peek-a-boo style just legendary.

    Mike Tyson - Greatest fighter ever lived.


    Had Cus & Jacobs not died he would have been the best fighter ever.

    Or had he stayed with Rooney & Cayton.

    I'm more of a fan of Tyson, and believe he would've been the far and above ATG had Cus stuck around. But Ali is greater.

    I see what your saying, and I think in this dream match Tyson would have his moments, especially in the first 4 rounds, but alis height reach and speed would give mike major problems

    :lol: Is this a serious question???

    resumes doesnt lie man! Tyson is an ATG himself but he doesnt quite stack up to Ali.

    had cus stayed alive or he at least stayed with rooney and cayton i do belive he would have been the greatest heavyweight, who knows? BUT ali has the better wins and depth in his resume so will always be greater, as will a few others.

    If you rank Tyson ahead of Ali on an ATG list, then you should slap yourself

    Who was Tysons best win? He lost his biggest fights, Ali is by far above Tyson. And thats coming from a Tyson fan

    Tyson wasa great but he cant compare to ALi. Tyson been KO'd 5 times including his KO losses to Buster,Williams,McBrude! C'mon! Tyson never beat a prime future all time great. Ali beat Foreman,Frazier,Liston,Patterson etc. Tyson beat Berbick and Spinks. Ali would beat Berbick and Spinks also.
    If Ali ever faced Mike Tyson,Ali would be tappin' that ass.

    This is the eternal question.

    I prefer Tyson's style more, but after 6 or so rounds I believe Ali would start to dominate, as Iron Mike's heart could be broken.

    Before the start of 6 Tyson would have given Ali hell, knocking him down a couple of times but would always get up as Ali had a diamond chin.

    Ali by TKO between round 12-15

    Ali dances around Tyson, cuts em up like a turkey and beats him around the ring, before ultimately Tyson quits on his stool around the 9th or 10th.
