Jack Dempsey vs Mike Tyson

Same outcome as the Tyson / Marciano thread, 3-5 rounds max.

No sub 200lb man is going to beat a prime '88 Tyson.

Doesn't make any difference how much heart the other guy has, when you are outsped and outgunned you aren't getting the result you want.

Joe Frazier had as much heart as anyone in the ring but it meant sweet fa when he met Foreman twice.

 

I agree that it would be a short fight, but I am not sure who would win.

 

Everything Blackcloud said.

 

You are a wise man my friend.

 

Great fight while it lasts! It would be done inside 4 rounds either way.

I'd go for Tyson.

 

This is as accurate as it gets, and I love Dempsey. Even the punchers chance wouldn't come into play in this one, Tyson was too quick and his punch resistance in the 80's too high for anyone to take him out with one shot.

Dempsey definitely wouldn't have been afraid of Tyson the way a lot of guys were, but that would have been irrelevant once Tyson got to work.

 

I see Tyson murdering Jack and then going into the crowd after mcvey

 

Yeah, but let's not forget Jess Willard was 6''6 and 245lbs, lost to Dempsey.

Also, Foreman beat Frazier because he hit harder and was a slugger (bad style for Frazier). The weight difference was only about 11lbs between Frazier and Foreman.

That said I think Tyson steamrolls Dempsey.

 

You missed an important qualifier.

No sub 200lb man is going to beat a prime '88 Tyson, except perhaps Dempsey!

 

McVey?

Which one?

The fighter or the poster?

 

Great minds think alike.




Until we fall out over some other fighter.

 

McVey the poster would probably bite his ear off!

 

Sigh of relief.

For a minute there i thought you were gonna say Marciano.

 

the poster, I was attempting to be funny
