    If that's not what you suggested, I can only apologize for my mistake. Apparently I was writing to someone completely different.. cheers

    The stylistic issue Tyson brings is enormous I agree but Ali had a certain X factor tenacity I never count out, he can win out by just “fighting harder” or figuring how to find that extra fire in himself. I favour Tyson to actually KO Ali 70-30 but would I be surprised to see Ali dog it out and pummel Tyson? No.

    Very well said. I'm a big Tyson Fan but i would never go so far that Tyson will KO any decent version of Ali with 70% propability.
    Someone mentioned here that although '86 Tyson has freakish like abilities he was still green and untested. I think thats a very valid point and will be a big issue when your opponent is Muhammad Ali.

    I didn’t notice it was 86, weird version to pick IMO why not go 88-89?

    oh come on this isn't even a question

    mike tyson in his prime could take on the whole jungle on his own, apart from the night he lost to buster douglas.
