    Depends on the pace you want Tyson to stay after 6 rounds. Depends on your thinking of Tyson as a 12 round fighter.
    But legit outcome if you think so. I´m fine with it. For my logic much more chance outcome than Tyson KO5 or something like that.

    But ask yourself this: Is this an easy fight for a fighter of Tysons style, jumping 12 rounds in and out against that fellow?

    Ike has no chance whatsoever against the 88 Tyson.

    Ike is famous for a fight he got a gift in.

    Tua beat Ike, and in that fight he managed to nail Ike with god knows how many hooks and uppercuts.

    It's an entirely different story if that's Mike landing on Ike like that... given the vast difference in velocity and accuracy between Tyson and Tua, and given that Mike had even-handed power and put everything together in combinations.

    I've never understood what chance Ike has in this one. Trading with a prime Tyson without any regard for defense or clinching is a suicide mission.

    Tyson KO 6 or 7.

    Anybody thinking Ike lasts the distance isnt understanding the big gap between Tua and Tyson.

    Tua NEVER stopped a fighter with a dependable chin. Never.

    Tyson obliterated several fighters known for their durability.

    Its different getting hit by Tyson as opposed to Tua - the myth of David Tua needs to die.

    I picture Mike knocking out Ike with a similar combo to the one he ended Pinklon Thomas with.

    Yep, I'll say this though ,Ike had some of the ingredients to give Mike trouble , but his history is just too thin to pick him here.
