    Very interesting question. I think James Smith ! He was the harder puncher and Golota was very vulnerable
    Smith's stamina was great also and he was very dangerous tricky fighter he looked boring and too defensive
    against the prime Tyson but it was Mike Tyson's iron era and James' strategy looked a logical choice.
    Otherwise Golota looked very fragile against a shot,slow Tyson and considering these i go with Smith.

    Great matchup....the smith of 1984-1989 thats a v tough determined warrior...i think he psyches the gifted golota and knocks him out in 11

    Depends on the ref to be honest. Bonecrusher would become Boneclutcher when Golota started throwing heavy as it was Smiths style. If the ref breaks them up and warns Smith or docks points I could see a Golota win.

    However with a good ref Smith cruises to UD

    Smith could take him out early or late while down on the cards. Golota would be a slight underdog for a decision win.
