    No shot, although he could run his mouth with the best of them.

    And thats where it ended. Although he had fast hands too. No power and just plain nuts. He never had the class to fight any great fighters and win.

    Mickey Walker would outpoint him and thus expand his legacy.

    Mitch Green looks badass in that Tyson highlight on youtube! Mean ass afro too
    He obviously has a rock chin and some fast hands but looks kind of crude to say the least, probably had some talent if he been trained to fight at a distance

    Mitch green tough, had plenty of talent and a top rated chin. However, he was a diamond in the rough who was never fully developed and polished so I really don't believe that he belongs in the same conversation as these established greats.

    **** "*****" Green and his horse.......... He never was a real fighter.... After his ugly HBO fight / loss to Tyson in '86, ***** Green was just a personality......... He was NOT a real fighter....... ***** Green is a real criminal who belongs in the nut-house wearing a Straight-Jacket......

    Being that "*****" Green was huge at 6' 5" tall and 230 solid pounds with arms like a friggin' octopus, he'd prolly survive against the pre 1960 champs, except for Joe Louis' wrath, but he was skilled enough to hold Tyson for 10 rds in 1986 on HBO........

    "*****" Green was NOT a *****....... He was a bad dude........ more so on the streets of New York rather than in the ring with gloves on his paws...... Green is a moron........

    Mitch Green's sole claim of having lasted 10 rounds with Tyson has been overstated and is borderline meaningless at this point. I find it interesting how no one thought anything of it until years later after Tyson had sparked Michael Spinks in 90 seconds, that folks started looking back to the earlier performances where guys clinched their ways to the final bell as though it were some sort of unpolished gem. Tyson was 19 years of age, with less than 20 pro fights, and dealing with a 6 inch height differential against the 28 year old green. He had also been extended the distance by James Tillis in the fight right before the Green meeting. Point being, he was a work in progress who was matched with fighters that fought to survive, not to win...... Mitch " Blood " Green never did anything of note except lose to Trevor Berbick and Mike Tyson. There is not one good win on that record of his.....

    The tillis fight was a development fight for Tyson and you could see the fast improvement in the Green fight. I don't think Green just held on to survive, I think he was forced to hold and fight that way because of Tyson pressure and speed, and Tyson made a lot of people fight his fight, which is good sign of greatness because he showed he could adapt to different boxer puncher styles. I think too many people get confused with Tyson's later career, compared to his earlier one when he was trained by Rooney which was a much different Tyson.

    He'd lose to all of them by decision, maybe(small possibility), that Foreman would stop him.
