Is Muhammad Ali vs Mike Tyson the GREATEST fantasy match up of all time?

the cobra NEVER picks Tyson in fantasy fights. I think I even saw him once predict a Galento KO over Mike in the 5th round. :-(

 

I'm a Ray Robinson vs Ray Leonard man, myself.

But in terms of event it'd be monstrous. People just have a fascination with the heavyweights

 

prime tyson beats prime ali. prime vitali beats primer tyson. prime ali beats vitali.

 

That's because the aura is reality-based. They'll **** you up no matter your weight. "All comers..." type of thing.

Trevor Berbick would brutally stop Ray Robinson, for example.

 

Definitely the case.

Long are the days of the Heavyweight Champ being a worldwide celeb and the scariest person on earth, though :sad2

 

haha! tyson vs ali is up there for sure. one all-time matchup i would love to see is marciano vs langford.

 

Leonard VS SRR

 

Ali. Probably a late stoppage. By 'not much of a great fight,' I don't mean it wouldn't be competitive, just that it wouldn't be one of those amazingly great fights that a lot of fantasy matches could be. Not my idea of a ridiculously great fight, at least. Most of my favorite fantasy match ups don't involve heavyweights anyway, but Holyfield-Frazier is top for the division in my mind. Endless, evenly matched action and savage exchanges that one would feature. A way better fight than Ali-Tyson could ever be. :good

Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah (woah), woah, woah, woah...I called Tyson-Galento 50/50, so you just calm down 'bout that.



But nah, I'd probably favor peak Tyson over all but 3 or 4 of the great Heavyweights. I'd pick Ali over every boxer ever, that's all, and I'm sure you understand why, which means you just need to come to terms with one other thing: Evander muther****ing Holyfield. :deal

 

Tyson beats Holyfield in 1991. **** a peak Tyson. :deal

And I ain't as deluded as you think. I've got Tyson anywhere from 7th to 9th on an ATG Heavyweight list, cobra. That's plenty fair and reasonable. Unlike these outrageous Dempsey shitheads with the gall to put him #1 All-Time. Disgrace. :rofl

 

All I know is that when Mike ran into guys of Holyfield's level, or style, or exact genetic make-up, he had this odd tendency to get his ass severely handed to him. :thumbsup

Oh, the Dempsey diehards

I've got Mike at 8 or 9, usually swapping places with Frazier, so you definitely got that one down, which means you just need to come to terms with one other thing...

Lewis/Chuvalo or Peak Tyson/Chuvalo, just to see if he would be knocked down.
