    It's quite obvious for whom delusional Brits are going to vote but let's give it a try.

    Tyson would put the fear of God into him.

    Tyson would have trouble with AJ's size and would lose from the stare down.

    Plus we all know Joshua is the new lewis/bruno who tyson had problems with

    AJ every every time 3rd TKO

    bit early for this after 9 fights but shows you've got some respect for AJ to even suggest this poll.

    So far I'd say a Tyson from the late 1980s early 1990s would beat AJ, but 4-5 years down the line there may be a different answer.

    What happens when a good big un meets a good little un??

    AJ starts like a rocket and would have Tyson out of there in no time. Too big, too powerful, too modern. Left, right goodnight!

    Ok, lets relax on this Anthony Joshua guy... He's very good when compared to any Heavyweight of the last 15 years, but let's not act like he be much more than a solid name in the Tyson era okay? Jeez

    Well he seems to be coming on quicker and looks better than a certain Lennox Lewis did at the same point in his career.

    24 year old Joshua vs. 18 year old Iron Mike. I think Joshua might take this! He weathers the storm early on and then takes out Mike in the later rounds.

    Joshua is the most promising HW prospect imo, but he'd get stopped like Frank Bruno

    He wouldn't have to weather the storm because he'd be bringing it, he'd over power the smaller Tyson and knock him out.
