    If he does a "real fight" not an exhibition vs a legend

    Joshua should be his opponent of choice

    Why?

    Risk vs Reward

    Tyson runs the risk of getting hurt in any fight so he should go for the biggest reward

    If any big name heavyweight Joshua has the worst chin, and heart by far.

    Mike will be dangerous early on, and he has IMHO a coin toss of stopping Joshua in the first round.

    If he can't get it done he can have his corner pull him out and go home with his money

    If he does pull it off, he's the man again

    This would never and should never be allowed. Tyson has a white beard now

    As true as that statement is.
    & I do agree with you I actually like his chances over wilder for some reason like 50/50.
    Either way somebody getting smashed.
    But OP is right risk vs reward would be Joshua.

    I don't know why that would be. Tyson hasn't been a contender since the mid 90s and he was losing to guys like kevinn McBride the last time we saw him. Not only that but Wilder is nearly a foot taller

    I am still shocked Iron Mike has duped so many grown men.

    How about Wilder? He fought Ortiz who was 67.

    Tyson should not fight any serious fights, and if it has to happen, it should still be someone of his age group, like Holyfield III.

    I has a little joke thread going that he should fight Oquendo, but I could actually see that happening.

    I would say Bowe, but Bowe should never get anywhere near a boxing ring. In fact, the more you talk about this stuff, the more you realize how sadistic it is that some people want it.

    We want the best for you Mike--stay retired!

    Mike Tyson got knocked out by journeyman Danny Williams. 15 years ago.

    All of a sudden he should fight Joshua? Cmon man

    If McGregor can dupe millions to believe he could beat Floyd, anything is possible.

    People want to be conned. That's why there are so many con men.

    Amazing isn't? He was shot 15 years ago and now some believe he has a realistic chance of beating Joshua or Wilder!

    You actually started a thread about how Dave Allen could beat Tyson with ease

    But Tyson has a chance against AJ?

    Makes sense
