    Maybe Conn or Tommy Farr because they move around but I do not thinks so.
    Joe Louis would not but Baer would have a punchers chance.

    @%#& I was coming here to say Audley Harrison after he had time-traveled back to the 1930s or 1940s.

    Braddock, Tommy Farr, John Henry Lewis or Max Baer. Braddock is very hard to knock out and has an unusual mix of power, speed and durability. Tyson needs to have early success and Braddocks the guy hes least likely to find it against. This group in general does not go down easy.

    Gastanagas got a glass chin but hes also got a 88 inch reach and this might confuse Tyson.
