Any super tall and skilled hw. He struggled with an injured Tucker, a poor man's Lewis. So I'd pick Lewis, both K's, probably Fury, and if they are still undefeated in a year or two Joshua and Wilder.
One man who would wreck Tyson mentally before the fight and then go on to wreck Tyson physically during the fight. That mans name is Sonny Liston.
you need SIZE, enough skills and durability to defeat a swarming quick hard to hit Tyson becaue he could HIT. My pickl is a tall duarable guy with ability to disrupt a Tyson rhythm of head to body /body to head combo fighter....5'10? well I would throw a 6'7 giant at him then....that's Vitali Klitchko for all combinations size skill/chin enough skill and power /strentgth could defeat Tyson for sure ....itsa a give and take fight.without the right attributes you wont defeat a true Rooney Prime Tyson ,unless you are Lennix Lewis /Wlad Klitchko/ or Anthony Joshua....YOU NEED THESE ATTRIBUTES like it or not. my sole pick is vitali.
Tyson beat a multitude of super heavyweights. Tall jabbers, he loved them! Saverese, Ribalta, Green, Williams, Tucker, Golota, Biggs, Neilsen, Holmes, Bruno, Thomas.. He actually wanted guys to jab him. That's how he slipped inside! What everybody dosnt understand is that Douglas, Holyfeild and Lewis did not just beat him with the jab. They beat Tyson because they worked out his programmed sequence and had the desire to implement a plan. They knew what Tyson was going to do before he did it. That's how they beat him Every mofo had a jab for Christ's sake!
Ali Lewis Liston Foreman Holyfield Holmes Johnson might be able to shut him down, as Smith and Tucker did but would that be enough to beat him? Dempsey & Louis I would make 50-50 I would give Bowe an outside shot ,maybe 65/35 Tua and Ibeabuchi are wild cards as well,imo.
