    Aw c'mon. I'd take Floyd over late active Tyson. Floyd beats the Tyson Danny Williams and McBride beat and likely competes with the still competive one shot static Tyson that had some late success but lost out in the big fights...

    So you're saying Patterson by KO against Jake Paul's Mike Tyson?

    I agree. It's a bs matchup and a waste of time for all of us. Why not present a thread asking about a match when they were in their primes, although I suppose it may have already been done. The Jake Paul bout wasn't even a real fight, and Tyson was how many years over 50? C'mon, Memo, get real!

    Unfortunately, while I tried to remove the likes, I got an error message that said "Prohibited: You have never had any power on this forum, you are banned for the next eleven seconds. Reason: We hate you."

    But, it's alright, I am actually back. It wasn't that long of a ban, fortunately.

    Jake Paul beat Mike Tyson. Michael Spinks lost to Mike Tyson. Make of it what you will.

    Your Thread has a misleading title.

    It should be:
    "Floyd Patterson vs the decrepit ghost of Mike Tyson"

    Welcome back.

    We missed you.

    Well, we didn’t actually miss you — we didn’t even know you were gone — but I wanted to say something nice.

    I agree Jake carried Mike, but it was a real fight.

    Sanctioned and on Mike’s record.

    Granted, it’s one of the more disgraceful fights in heavyweight history, ironically right up there with Floyd vs Rademacher.

    How about Rademacher vs Paul?

    The differences being that Floyd went in for the kill and Rademacher wasn't over 50 years old. I don't know that a younger man carrying an old man qualifies as a real fight. It's a matter of definition, I suppose. Really, it's more of an exhibition to my mind.

    Jake vs. Rademacher might be a more reasonable thread if a person is into those type of fantasy fights.

    Floyd, the heavyweight champ, got knocked down by an amateur.
