    Pipedream . Tyson is handmade for foreman.


    That fight goes like Tyson vs Bruno. Bruno being foreman.

    I don't think anyone "destroys" prime Mike Tyson. Win on points, maybe, but destroy? Nope.

    1990 Tyson was, well, past prime, lost to buster, so at the time it'd be an accurate statement.New Georgeforeman went 24-0 and wassmarter in the ring and was a thinking man, tyson would need longeivity and it would come down to the fact that with less head movement from tyson, it would become a brawl,and we know who hits harder.
