    Couldn't help myself....

    Both built like tanks with Oscar being the stockier guy! We saw how Tyson struggled with guys like Evander, how does Rivas hold up against Mike Tyson and his style?

    Does Rivas get knocked out? Can he get knocked out lol?

    Rivas ain't no where near as good as Iron Mike. Aside from the knockdown, Dillian kicked his ass.

    Tyson would be too hard to hit and would outpoint Rivas like he outpointed Tucker and Smith, Holy was harder to hit clean on the chin and rode shots well, different class.

    Tyson KO's Rivas. Rivas is built like tank (Mike himself is too).
    Rivas can take the punch, but he isn't taking Mike's combinations for too long.

    Whyte hurt him a couple of times, though he took great left hooks to the body.

    Stylewise he's made for Mike, Tyson would use his great speed and combos to hurt Rivas and then finish him off.

    Would both sustain damage on exchanges? Do you think Mike could stop Rivas? Rivas is pretty damn durable.

    What do you think of Rivas ability to dodge? He was quite illusive, Whyte is taller with long arms, he was able to work the jab and body shots, but Rivas did well to avoid everything else.

    Rivas is pretty good at it, but he lacks speed that Mike possessed. I think Rivas is a bit too muscular for his size, that makes him slower than he could've been.

    Rivas looks like a 80's, early 90's heavyweight, but I can't see him have anyrhing on iron Mike.

    Rivas would be lucky to see three full rounds. It would be target practice for Tyson.

    Rivas isn’t that good, very easy win for Tyson.
