Holyfield vs. Tyson in a street fight

As if a "street fight" suddenly changes everything. Well it might if either of them had experience in any other grappling fighting system other than boxing. To my knowledge neither has so the result is probably the same.

 

True look at what happened when Hasim Rahman grabbed Lennox Lewis, Lewis had no clue what to do.

There was a heavyweight journeyman called Jeremy Williams, got knocked out brutally a few times but had some power himself and he was a black belt in Judo and fought a few times in MMA. He'd very likely have an advantage over many of the elite boxers in a street situation.

There's been quite a few British boxers who worked as bouncer and were involved in the criminal underworld, some of them would also fare much better out the ring than most boxers.

 

Jeremy Williams actually threw Lennox Lewis to the floor in sparring, in an a fight without gloves it's very possible he could beat up Lewis.

 

Based on how Lewis had no idea or instincts on what to do when Rahman grabbed him I absolutely believe Jeremy Williams destroys Lewis outside the boxing ring.

 

I came in to this late

Holyfield would kill him

 

I assume Tyson had more experience fighting in the street so I would pick him, but who knows really…Street fights are unpredictable.

 

Holyfield would most defintely beat him down every time.
