    What if the federal judge didn't rule in Lewis' favour, and what if Mike Tyson somehow lost to Brian Nielsen?
    What if Rahman fought Nielsen in 2001 for the heavyweight championship of the world?
    BONUS: What if Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson fight for the right to contend for the titles? (12 rounder eliminator bout sanctioned by the WBC)

    Personal opinion: Rahman 116-112, Nielsen is too durable to be stopped by Rahman
    BONUS: Lewis dismantles Tyson similar to their actual fight, either by a late stoppage, or by a wide margin 119-109. A demotivated Mike who probably trained only for the press and to sell the fight was quite durable

    Rahman by UD or late stoppage.
