    What an utterly ridiculous statement. Foreman will be knocked on his ass if he faced any version of Tyson till 1997 on his comeback. However I will give him a strong chance against a Tyson that fought on from 1999 onwards ie against botha onwards. Then it would have have been a fair fight.

    Good post! I'd pick Tyson in the 1st round. I'm not sure about Shavers being garbage, but he's certainly over-rated.

    One is a puncher with a questionable chin. The other, post 95' was still a better all-around fighter with a cement chin.

    Tyson vaporizes the acorn in 2 rounds.

    No brainer. Tyson is not going to go down with one big punch irrespective of whether it is shavers or Foreman, you have to throw ruthless, relentless combinations to finally floor him at the end of the fight.
