    Tyson would Knock both of them out. His speed, coordination and ability to close distance. He was just so explosive. Tyson at that time used angles and came in with his jab and combinations. I don't think Mike Tyson was the greatest heavyweight of all time but for a time he was about as good as anyone.

    Joshua has too much size reach and athleticism. He wins from the outside

    Still spreading false info about people’s personal lives?

    Only on ESB is this even a real question.

    The thought of that dumb, clumsy oaf AJ beating the 88 Tyson is lunacy.

    The thought of the mentally fragile, shot old chinless man Wladimira beating the 88 Tyson is equal as laughable.

    I understand the Euro bias that overruns this forum, but please.... come down to planet Earth.

    Mike destroys both of them.

    firstly i am not sure they both fight him, AJ has been stay safe , and wlad shirked anyone good serially after he was exposed by middlers repeatedly.


    AJ more likely might.

    Same difference though, they both get cut down early to mid.

    History proves that clinching alone won't beat Tyson. At best, it might allow you to survive... the way Bonecrusher and Tony Tucker did.

    In order to beat Tyson, you had to actually FIGHT him, and inflict heavy damage on him.

    Wlad had neither the heart nor the chin to fight Tyson.

    He's always been a mental midget, and he let Fury intimidate him.

    Tyson would have had Wlad beat before the opening bell.

    Why did you make this thread if you're just going to criticize someone's answer if it doesn't suit your agenda?

    Pov is a fly compared to tyson.

    Pov - best performances, knocking out guys like charr noone, pov in his prime 30s

    tyson - best performances, koing the baddest biggest men on the planet serially, just himself out of high school nearly.

    Joshua would be in trouble early against Tyson, he'd be catching everything and trying to fight back. If he can survive the early storm ,maybe had a chance .But I'll say prime Tyson stops him in 5.
    As for Wlad ,if he can be stopped early by Sanders then Tyson does it a round earlier.

    OMG, he'd KO them both before like, the 5th at the latest with this one uppercut that would DETACH Joshua's head and send it into the back row and then Wlad would get this other uppercut that would LIFT HIS SKULL OFF and peg it into the ROOF spine -first OMG

    As much as people talk about Tyson's lack of heart(which there was no sign of before jail) Wlad would just absolutely freeze with Tyson coming at him like a wild animal.
    Let's face it Wlad panicked easily, went down vs Peter without being hurt out of sheer panick and didn't throw punches vs Fury who is not a big puncher because he was scared of being countered, not because he was that shot. And even if he was that shot he should have atleast gone out on his shield trying to keep his title by attacking fury like he just slapped his wife.

    AJ might just be too big considering AJ likes to go forward also.
    Tyson has much better stamina though if you look at the green and Tucker fights.
    This one might be tough but tbh I don't think Joshua has the boxing skills and fluidity of a Douglas, Tucker or Lewis.
    He's too stiff. The only fluid HW today that can move and box like Douglas, Tucker ,Lewis and etc is in shape Tyson fury.
    The rest is just too stiff.
