Prime Tyson vs Prime Ali

I knew lewis
would be brought up but like u said mike was passed it. like to me both are really ightmares for eachother
thats why I think its sort of a toss up. I see ali winning on points or being k.o.ed depends if he wants to stand and trade or not. if he jabs while mo ving he keeps mike off but if mike kould slip some jabs, cut the ring off and make ali plant and lead with the right that kod liston or his upercut lead he liked he could get caught and huge with a timed left hook lead and if that brittish dude had ali out with the same punch a much powerful and faster tyson could too.
I mean this dude was a freak of nature. great at cutting off the ring and slipping straight shots forcing the oppents too the ro pre s for a split second and unleashing a huge attack. I donno man. it would be a helluva scrap I think

 

Teddy is totally-unbiased & never makes stuff up.

 

Ali....end of thread!!

 

But what about the event?? :scaredas:

 

I don't think Tyson had the stamina that Frazier did. Honestly, Marciano may be a harder fight for Ali than Tyson.

 

Iuck marciano!!!
yeah thats right I said it.
tyson woulda beat the **** out of his ass

 

What does that have to do with Ali?

 

But he didnt have the power, speed or athletic ability that Tyson had..
Not to mention that Tyson had far better offensive skills than Rocky had

 

What makes you say this?

 

nothing at all. ali woulda whooped his ass too.
maybe im biased idk but I seriously hate marciano

 

He was better at ducking punches.. Had a better left hook and right upper cut and could cut off the ring and finish much better..

 

Why do you hate Marciano? You shouldn't hate a fighter when judging his ability to perform in a fight because it has a tendency to cloud your judgement.

What gives Marciano a good shot against Ali is not only his style, workrate, and heart, but his experience against boxers such as Jersey Joe Walcott and Ezzard Charles.

While Ali has the superior size and athletiscm, he doesn't have the techinical savy, counterpunching ability, and in Jersey Joe Walcott's case, the power, that these fighters had.

And while Ali is more predictable in his attack than a guy like JJW without a doubt, his athleticism, intellect, and heart, make him incredibly difficult to beat.

Rocky would have the best chance though with his relentless attack that is prepared to go 15 rounds.

Tyson would be very dangerous in the beggining of the fight, but failing to get an early knockout would likely be reduced to smothering Ali, with his workrate dipping dramatically, but unlike some of Tyson's opponents, Ali would not make a silent agreement, and would take control of the fight in the later rounds and probably TKO Tyson late.

 

I think all of what you said here is debatable.

Even in regards to what you say about their individual punches. Rocky and Mike did not fight in the exact same style.

 

Tyson by blow out KTFO.

 

Tyson's left hook is better than Frazier. Tyson has a better chin than fraizer. He's not a one punch fighter like Fraizer, he has dynamite in any hand and with any style of punch. He's also better at dodging punches. And when throwing power punches, Tyson is faster than Ali. Yeah Tyson lost to Douglas. Ali got a bunch of gift decisions like against Jimmy Young and cheatingly escaped a KO against Henry Cooper.
