    Younger Tyson with his speed and head movement would have KO'd Lewis

    Well if you use the Ruddock fights as a guideline, it doesn't look good for Mike. When Lewis is truly worried about a fighter he fights ultra-aggessive right from the opening bell.

    This is a mismatch. Lewis would always win due his superior skills, speed, and physical presence. I also feel that Lewis was a more dangerous fighter back in 1992. He was not so much of a safety fighter, and had awesome speed and reflexes, he was not as bulky and could evade shots quite easily. He was fighting at his most comfortable weight.
    230 pounds.

    I think this would come down to who's chin could take more, and I think Tyson always had the superior chin and while Lewis would probably land some bombs, Tyson would absorb them and land his own, which I don't think Lewis would be able to take.

    Tyson and Lewis sparred once when they were both in their primes and I guess it was rather uneventful.

    I am a big fan of Lewis, still I think he would lose this one. Back in 92 he was more raw, compared to 98-01 when he was prime.That version of Lewis would beat a 92 version of tyson, but it would be a hell of a fight, we all know tyson was close to shot when they fought in 02....

    That's a bit optimistic. You must have slept through peak Tyson 86 - 90

    No man would be 10/10 against that beast.

    I´d bet on Tyson at that time in 92 but in 96 I´d bet on Lewis

    Lewis was not in his prime in 1992 Jackass.

    Tyson would kill him in 1992.

    You have no clue what you're talking about.

    "has no chance" even pre- Steward Lewis would've been a handfull for anyone in the history of the sport. Dumbass.:rofl
